拍品专文

'At a time when people were talking about planes (...) the plane of the surface, the plane of depth etc., making a hole was a radical gesture that broke the space of the picture and that said: after this we are free to do what we want. You cant confine the space of the picture to the limits of the canvas, but it has to be extended to the whole environment. I dont know how or in how many ways, because unfortunately I won't be alive in the year two thousand, but the important thing has been to testify to this need'
(L. Fontana, quoted in D. Palazzoli, 'Intervista con Lucio Fontana in Bit, no. 5, Milan, October-November, 1967).
