Un Ambiente Spaziale di Lucio Fontana.

Genoa.: Galleria del Deposito., 1967. Single newspaper sheet, printed both sides, and folded for mailing.. Sheet size (43 x 29.5 cm).. News bulletin produced by the Galleria Deposito as a result of their 36th exhibition, a performed installation by Lucio Fontana held at the gallery on the 3rd October 1967. The ambienti spaziali (Spatial Environments) are among the most experimental works Lucio Fontana created. In these works the artist merged painting, sculpture, and architecture in an attempt to overcome the static conception of the plastic form, devising a space that the visitor could walk through and experience. Conceived as autonomous rooms and corridors for galleries and museums both in Italy and abroad, due to their ephemeral nature the Spatial Environments were always dismantled and destroyed at the end of the exhibitions, with the exception of the one presented here, at the Galleria del Deposito in Genoa on October 3rd 1967, today part of the collection of the Musée d’art contemporain de Lyon. The bulletin reproduces a photograph of Fontana at work, as well as a reprinting of his Manifesto Bianco.
