This catalogue presents half a century of Italian abstraction, taking as its starting point the tendency's Futurist heritage before going on to explore both the geometric imagery of the post-war Movimento Arte Concreta and the more organic work of those artists influenced by Art Informel, such as Emilio Vedova, Lucio Fontana and Piero Manzoni.
Drawn from the three principal museums of modern and contemporary art in the Liguria region of northern Italy - Genoa's Villa Croce, La Spezia's Centro Arte Moderna e contemporanea, and the Pinacoteca Civica of Savona - the catalogue reveals the incredible richness and variety of abstract art in Italy during this period, and the strong links its protagonists forged with the international scene.
