Perhaps art creates more questions than answers and provokes rather than soothes? That is its nature and purpose.
Fashion, though primarily involved in making money, is a major catalyst in the on-going debate of what constitutes art today and what the alternatives might be.
Altering an image to become a text, giving an image an alternative image and giving objects and images names that may or may not be true, appropriate or meaningful is the stuff of imagination. It’s also anarchic, perverse and a challenge to interpretation.
Fontana let the light of reality into the light of illusion. His slashed and gouged holes joined illusionistic space to real space. To have a real space creating the form, content and illusion on a surface through penetration, is visually and intellectually stimulating. Vision becomes something else.
