JL) Lucio Fontana - Concetto Spaziale, Teatrino (1965) Born in Argentina, the son of a Milanese sculptor, Fontana founded spatialism, which combined elements of Dada, concrete art and tachism. On display were works made during the '60s, when Baselitz was in headlong rebellion against the School of Paris, which seemed to have reached a dead end in a tachism that had become decorative, and the School of New York, which was witnessing the birth of Pop and Minimalism. The term "gestural abstraction" immediately calls to mind the heroicized bravura of Abstract Expressionism and Tachism, but Konig and Obrist go a long way toward expanding its capacity to articulate a complex relationship to spontaneity, immediacy, and other forms of subjective engagement. |
