Art is always a great declaration of love. Through the works of the most important contemporary artists - including Robert Indiana, Tom Wesselmann, Andy Warhol, Tracey Moffatt, Francesco Clemente, Marc Quinn, Gilbert & George, Francesco Vezzoli, and Vanessa Beecroft - and essays by Danilo Eccher, Federico Vercellone, Pierangelo Sequeri, Mattia Fumanti, and Woody Allen, this book deals with one of the universally recognized feelings and source of inquiries and representations, love, telling the different facets and endless variations. A happy love, waiting, misunderstood, hated, ambiguous, transgressive, childish, which winds along an unconventional exhibition, featuring visual and perceptual inputs.
Danilo Eccher has been director of the MACRO (Museo dArte Contemporanea Roma) since 2001.
