Vestigia: la statuaria classica nelle opere d'arte contemporanee

Abstract

The article examines one of the forms of recovery and revival of classicism in contemporary art, the direct quotation of classical statuary in paintings, sculptures and installations, from Giorgio de Chirico up to contemporary artists, from Michelangelo Pistoletto to Giulio Paolini, from Jannis Kounellis to Claudio Parmiggiani.
