Condition remarks: Condition as shown in image. ** GERMAN TEXT ONLY**. Three softback catalogues in a slipcase - No. 61/90, with an original signed drawing bound in. Inscribed by Cucchi to Grazia Gunn. Worn slipcase with a few tears and worn around the edges. The catalogues are intact.

At the intersection of raw expressionism and neo-figurative power, Louisiana Museum presents a compelling visual record of Enzo Cucchi's singular artistic vision as exhibited at the renowned Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark. One of the most provocative figures of the Italian Transavanguardia movement, Cucchi conjures imagery that is primal and mythic, weaving together fire, earth, and ancient symbolism into canvases that feel simultaneously prehistoric and urgently contemporary. The catalogue chronicles the full scope of the exhibition, pairing reproductions of his large-scale paintings and drawings with critical commentary that illuminates the emotional and intellectual architecture behind each work. Cucchi's art resists easy categorisation — it is visceral, theatrical, and deeply rooted in the cultural memory of his native Italian landscape, yet it speaks a universal language of death, transformation, and spiritual longing. Edited by Bernd Klüser, this publication stands as an authoritative document of a landmark moment in late twentieth-century European art, capturing an artist at the height of his expressive powers. For collectors, scholars, and admirers of post-modern figurative painting, this volume raises a question that lingers long after the final page: what does it mean when a painter makes the entire world his canvas?
