Title The great subtraction : a brief account of select work by Giovanni Anselmo, Elisabetta Benassi, Gino De Dominicis, Francesco Matarrese, Marisa Merz, Luigi Ontani, Cesare Pietroiusti, Michelangelo Pistoletto and Emilio Prini Type Bibliographic Edition Year 2011 TOC Summary Since the 1960s artists from various countries have positioned themselves increasingly within a system of art that is now global in its reach. However, Italian artists in particular have, with some exceptions, resisted expressing a certain putative artistic "Italian-ness," thus undermining the global system's tendency to identify artists, artworks, and movements according to nationality. The expression "Italian art" names quite an impervious referent: it exists in a kind of limbo, perpetually suspended between abysmal default and epiphanic excess, its identity as a subject neither ascertained nor denied. Italian artworks therefore neither correspond to a preexisting array of local attributes nor resonate with a discernible web of global meanings BH ID BV040277640 Link EPIC Open Data ID BVB01-025133075
