Overview
For Gianfranco Baruchello, as for his master Duchamp, the poetic is found first and foremost in subconscious processes, in a liberating and, once said, anti-bourgeois function. Paolo Brunatto and Valentino Zeichen unveil the playful vein and irony that bring to light the biting ideas, latent in the artistic gesture, of Baruchello, co-author with Grifi of “La verifica incerta” and maker of a series of experimental shorts, epochal performances and indelible signs of time.
