Operazioni (in arte e in architettura)
Lorenzo Degli Esposti, Operazioni (in arte e in architettura), Maggioli Editore, 2018.
This book is the outcome of Degli Esposti’s Phd thesis, developed at the Politecnico di Milano with Ernesto d’Alfonso and in New York City, thanks to an invitation by Peter Eisenman in his office to study in depth the subject.
Art in the Sixties and Seventies – Minimal Art, Conceptual Art, Art-Language, Primary Structures etc. – investigates the procedures of appropriation, notation and process, to activate new readings and to produce new formalizations of the object, in the cultural climate of structuralism and protest. The works by Sol LeWitt, Walter De Maria, Donald Judd etc. share intentions and outcomes with the contemporary research by Peter Eisenman, Archizoom, Franco Purini, exploring the contradictions between the autonomy of the object and its relations with place and time. Operazioni (in arte e in architettura) traces this story from the point of view of a designer, questioning the reasons of the choices in the architectural and urban composition.
