Alberto Burri (1915 -1995) universally acclaimed by critics as well as by the international market as one of the most prominent Masters of the 20th century, never agreed to talk about his personal life and art. In a number of video documentaries portraying him at work, he never utters a word. My work speaks for me, he stubbornly claimed for almost fifty years, during which he kept refusing interviews, celebrations, prizes and awards.The long dialogue that the author has gathered for this book bears an exclusive character being it the first and only time in which Burri, far from the usual circuits of art criticism, eventually agreed to talk openly about his work and personal life.
