The exhibition La negazione della forma. Arnaldo Pomodoro tra minimalismo e controcultura<\/strong><\/em> turns the spotlight on the period\u00a01966-1970<\/strong>, an extremely lively season, during which Pomodoro developed\u00a0an unprecedented experimentation with forms<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 influenced by phenomena such as the\u00a0Minimal Art \u2013<\/em>\u00a0giving life to groups of sculptures characterized by an extreme formal synthesis such as the\u00a0Rotanti<\/em>, the\u00a0Forma X <\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Onda<\/em>, the\u00a0Vuoto pieno<\/em>, but also to a series of brightly colored graphics, which recall the chromatic ranges favored by the\u00a0Pop<\/em> and of\u00a0Op Art<\/em> artists.<\/p>\n

In these same years, Pomodoro is the protagonist of\u00a0crucial and stimulating experiences<\/strong>, between the United States and Italy: he teaches on the\u00a0Stanford and Berkeley campuses; he initiates and curates \"counterculture\" initiatives with other friends such as the avant-garde critical magazine\u00a0Che Fare<\/em>\u00a0or the cycle of \"public art\" exhibitions\u00a0Una scultura nella strada<\/em>; he is a member of the organizing commission of the 1968 Venice Biennale\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Wiley<\/strong>and Stephen Laub<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
