The essay is the result of a first comprehensive study of Giuseppe Penone's drawings donated to the Philadelphia Art Museum and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The path of Penone's drawing practice in the 1970s is traced within a larger context of debate and other artists' researches. Major themes of the decade are discussed, namely planning (for Penone, "project" stands for a "projection" in time of the work), frottage and imprint (and the subsequent paradigm of materiality), but also figuration and illustration within the artist book. The analysis goes from contextual notes and exhibition history to the close observation of some works on paper, characterized by a great variety of techniques (including pastel), finishing degree and function within the creative process.

Abstract

The essay is the result of a first comprehensive study of Giuseppe Penone's drawings donated to the Philadelphia Art Museum and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. The path of Penone's drawing practice in the 1970s is traced within a larger context of debate and other artists' researches. Major themes of the decade are discussed, namely planning (for Penone, "project" stands for a "projection" in time of the work), frottage and imprint (and the subsequent paradigm of materiality), but also figuration and illustration within the artist book. The analysis goes from contextual notes and exhibition history to the close observation of some works on paper, characterized by a great variety of techniques (including pastel), finishing degree and function within the creative process.
