Product Description

Focusing on the work of Italian artists Lucio Fontana Alberto Burri and Piero Manzoni Jaleh Mansoor demonstrates and reveals how abstract painting in post-WWII Italy critiqued the economic violence of the Marshall Plan and American hegemony broke with fascist-associated futurism and anticipated Italian social unrest in the 1960 and 1970s.
