Concetto Spaziale
"Concetto Spaziale" is an artistic concept developed by Italian artist Lucio Fontana in the mid-20th century. It translates to "Spatial Concept" and emphasizes the relationship between art and space. Fontana aimed to break traditional boundaries of painting by creating works that engage with three-dimensional space, often using techniques like slashing or puncturing the canvas.
The movement is characterized by its exploration of light, color, and the physicality of materials. Fontana's iconic slashed canvases invite viewers to consider the void and the infinite, challenging conventional perceptions of art and encouraging a dialogue about the nature of existence and perception.
