COLLECTION RISD MUSEUM OF ART.
Last chance to see “Ambienti Spaziali,” a ravishing, museum-quality Fontana survey curated by Germano Celant. On view are outstanding examples of Fontana’s groundbreaking works in painting and sculpture, including prime examples of his Concetti spaziali series with slashed canvas and metal. At the heart of the show are six rarely exhibited “environments” that the Italian artist created beginning in the late 1940s. These darkened rooms, filled with black lights illuminating fluorescent-painted abstract forms, are both prescient and spectacular.
