Author: Apollonio, Marina
Marina Apollonio was one of the main exponents of the international Op art and kinetic art movements. Reasserting her importance, this volume traces her career up to the present day. It highlights the rigour of her visual research, pursued with an elegance of execution and a wide range of variation: moving between painting, sculpture and drawing, between static, moving and environmental works, between black and white, chromatic research and experimentation with techniques and materials. Apollonio's dizzying, scintillating works, almost always rendered in black and white, were made in several scales: from hanging canvases to expansive installations painted directly onto floors. Peggy Guggenheim met the artist in 1968 and bought one of her works, making Apollonio the last artist to enter this historic collection.
ISBN 9791254632345. Marsilio Arte. pb. 184 pages. 160 colour ills. 26.7 x 20.3 cm.
