Alberto Burri - Collezione Burri - Fondazione Palazzo Albizzini 1986

Beautiful catalogue of the Italian artist Alberto Burri, one of the leading exponents of post-war informal painting. By subjecting everyday mostly organic materials such as jute sacks, wood, tar and plastic to combustion or desiccation, he probes the boundaries between life and art. His influence on Land Art, Arte Povera (Kounellis) and Pop Art (Rauschenberg) was decisive, such as the beauty of his work is timeless.
