Felice Varini: Point of View

by Felice Varini, Fabiola Lopez-Duran, Lars Muller

Point of view is not to be assumed in Felice Varini's graphic modifications of space. By painting strips of primary colors on the walls, pillars and ceilings of galleries, corridors and abandoned places, Varini alternately creates and destroys the effects of volume as perceived by the viewer. His diagonal lines, circles and squares simultaneously reveal and filter the reality of a place. Essay by Fabiola Lopez. Hardcover, 6.75 x 9.5 in./256 pgs / 220 color 0 BW0 duotone 0 ~ Item D20090

i have only seen one of varini's pieces in person and my mind was most definitely blown. this book has really great photographs of all the others so i can get that same feeling in more manageable quantities. because if my life were surrounded by his art, my brain would explode.

Just a really cool fine artist who makes city-sized installation pieces. Visual trickery is involved as well.
