On the "Baroque Minimalism" of an acclaimed heir to Arte Povera
This volume explores 30 years of multimedia works from New York- and Rome-based Italian artist Paolo Canevari (born 1963) through a selection of sculptures, drawings and installations ranging from earlier pieces influenced by Arte Povera to rubber pieces made during the 1990s. Using a variety of materials and mediums, Canevari forges a vocabulary he defines as "Baroque Minimalism."
Celebrating the artist's first retrospective exhibition in the UK, held at the Cardi Gallery, London, the book includes his most recent Paesaggioand Constellationseries, part of the ongoing project Monuments of the Memory. It is enriched by a commissioned essay by Robert Storr, a short story by Andrea Camilleri, and two interviews with the artist, one led by Shirin Neshat and the other by Robert Storr and Francesca Pietropaolo.
