Catalogue Note

"By Arte Povera one means a great laic revolution, a Franciscan vision that is not anthropomorphic, but anthropocentric, of relationship with the land, with the fire, the air, a vision of mutual and horizontal exploration. If by Arte Povera one means ideology and other I do not agree, I never understood it in that way."

Pier Paolo Calzolari in an interview with Giancarlo Politi in: Flash Art, Nr. 314, February 2014, p. 32
