Fondazione Sozzani hosts Elio Grazioli, who presents Infrasottile: l’arte contemporanea ai limiti , an essay published by Postmedia Books.
But what does “infrasottile” mean? It is a concept that seems to refer to those phenomena at the limits of perception that show the transition from one state to another, and which the author uses as a compass to guide the reader through some of the main artistic manifestations of recent decades, selecting artists capable of “seeing and showing reality differently.” To do this, he identifies compartmentalized subcategories, including repetition, series, copying, tautology, quotation, simulation, and remakes.
