The work Rete Spaziale Rosso, Attesa , created by Lucio Fontana in 1965 and exhibited here, belongs to the famous series of Tagli begun in 1958. In Concepts Spaziale the red chromatic background houses a single central surgical laceration of the canvas. The cuts for Fontana, as he himself writes, are “above all a philosophical expression, an act of faith in the infinite, an affirmation of spirituality . When I sit in front of one of my cuts, to contemplate it, I suddenly feel a great relaxation of the spirit, I feel a man freed from the slavery of matter, a man who belongs to the vastness of the present and the future ".
