| book description |

The book retraces the inventive richness of Pietro Consagra (Mazara del Vallo, 1920 â€“ Milan, 2005), one of the most seminal figures on the international art scene of the 20th century. It proposes a comparison between different moments in the artistâ€™s creative path, thus making it possible to emphasise both the elements of continuity in his work, but also and above all the specificities of the individual periods, offering a varied panorama of his continuous reinventions of forms and his experimentation with materials. Francesca Pola identifies Consagraâ€™s path not in a purely chronological sense, but rather according to a reading key highlighting the importance of the relationship between sculpture, space and observer: a specific focus on the â€œlocationâ€ of the plastic presence in relation to the observer, the fulcrum of the characteristic â€œfrontal sculptureâ€ codified by Consagra starting from his famous Colloqui of the early 1950s and contextually theorised as early as his book NecessitÃ della scultura (1952). Text in English and Italian.
