Extra-Povera

I always detested Lucio Fontana, who was one of the destroyers of art (like so many others !).

Lucio Fontana, inventor of spatialism, was part of the « Arte Povera » (poor art) movement.

So, I wondered how to do worse ... ?

The solution was to do even less, the least possible :
A painting where the incision is not even made, due to the laziness of the artist !

And as the saying goes, « a picture is worth a thousand words », this video explains it all :
