Description

The outcome of painstaking study and attentive collecting of materials like documents, photos, writings, and period publications (mostly never seen before), this catalogue is edited by Luca Massimo Barbero along with the Associazione Paolo Scheggi, and a fundamental contribution by Franca Scheggi Dall'Acqua. Finally investigated in its fundamental forms, the art output of Paolo Scheggi (Settignano, Florence 1940-Rome 1971) is analyzed in sections that illustrate his lively and incessant interdisciplinary research, by presenting over 600 works with a detailed cataloging of his environmental works, maquettes, and performances. In contact with international groups and movements, Paolo Scheggi took part in important exhibitions, in Paris, Buenos Aires, New York, Hamburg, Dusseldorf, and Zagabria, until his untimely death in 1971.
