Lucio Fontana was a WW2 Artist and probably renowed for his 'Slash' works in canvases or metal, but Lucio has done alot more than that and I find it a shame that people can overlook some of his work which has there own unique qualities too.
Lucio died at age 69 during the late sixties which says a lot for his art, being very modern and strange for his time but however is an inspiration for my work and others to this day. His work can be oviously related to my subject matter 'Traces' with the marks he makes with paints and metal and also with every day objects, his art can really be inspiring and so I also had to experiment with this, off course with my own touch 'pencils, pens and anything else I could find.
With this and what I've learnt from other artist like Ian Mckeever there could be potential for something great and so I'll continue to share these mark making and inpirational artist.
