A reference work, the exhibition catalog retraces the extraordinary vivacity of artistic creation in Italy between 1960 and 1975 through a selection of works by more than fifty artists who gave a glimpse of Italian society during these fifteen years.
This generation of artists envisions new ways of creating. It illustrates a form of vita nuova (“new life”) which characterizes Italian art of this period and contributes to its international recognition.
