“The conditions for a life of passion were there, but I had to destroy them in order to salvage them.” --Alighiero Boetti, 1969 This book offers a sophisticated portrait, through previously unpublished works, of a man who first and foremost was a philosopher of depth, subtlety and irony. Alighiero e Boetti invented and reinvented the world via the freest of artistic intervention, ever subverting its conventions. Order and Chaos = Alighiero e Boetti. Included are his graphite reproductions of magazine covers from 1986, his postal works, and his always astonishing maps--masterpieces of thought as much as of art, if not more.PUBLISHED BY:Charta LIST PRICE: US $40.00 CAD $48.00 FORMAT:Hardcover, 8.25 x 10.5 in. / 96 pgs / 40 color / 7 b&w.
