Pietro Consagra, Muraglia Rosso Verona e Nero Atlantide (1977)
The thought and the work by Pietro Consagra, born in 1920 and died in 2005, have a very special role in the aesthetic debate of the second half of the twentieth century for the complexity of the themes dealt with, the search for a new relationship between man, space, and sculpture, and for his proposed solutions to a concept of three-dimensionality defined by him as “the monumental matrix of a dead language”.
