Mario Merz

Mario Merz (1925-2003) was a well-konwn Italian artist, who belonged to the so-called Arte Povera. 
In this volume the Fondazione Merz (born in Turin in 2005) has collected the works exhibited at the GAM-Civic Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art (10 January-27 March, 2005), at the Contemporary Art Museum of the Rivoli Castle (10 January-27 March 2005), and at the Fondazione Merz (29 April-2 October 2005).

The richness of illustrations (166 in color and black and white) - such as the enormous artworks reproducing prehistoric wild animals like the rhino, the crocodile, or the owl - shows us his vasted and heterogeneous artistic production; at the end of the volume a rich critical anthology and pgotographs of the artist.
