Museum Day, Part 2

Amazing show, Italics: Italian Art between Tradition and Revolution 1968–2008
November 14, 2009 - February 14, 2010
at the MCA.



Lucio Fonatana's installation, Ambiente bianco (spaziale), which translates into office environment (space), looks like two long and narrow holes in the wall with light spilling out. They look thin, too thin to enter through, until you see someone pop out of one of them. Upon entering you find yourself in a bright white maze, and on one wall in a room toward the middle is a signature Fontana slit. - Gapers Block
