Summary

This unusual and fascinating volume explores Italian and international cultural history from the 1970s to the present day. A progressive book for all lovers of contemporary and conceptual art.

A vivid, gripping narrative supported by photographs of great impact, this book takes the reader through the most innovative and groundbreaking events marking the last 50 years of Italian and international history, as seen through the work, life, and constantly evolving personality of Lucrezia De Domizio Durini, an unconventional protagonist of the artistic scenario.

Central to Lucrezia’s life were her relationships with important artists like Gino De Dominicis or Michelangelo Pistoletto and especially her friendship with the German artist Joseph Beuys. The narrative recalls key encounters with important critics and directors of prestigious museums, such as Thomas M. Messer of the Guggenheim Museum, providing highlights of many strategic moments of a changing and evolving society.
