About I quanta

“I quanta” is an abstract artwork created in 1960 by Lucio Fontana, associated with the art movement Spatialism. The artwork consists of various red geometric shapes arranged on a white background, exhibiting Fontana’s exploration of space and form.

The artwork features multiple red, three-dimensional shapes that include polygons and a circle. Each shape is characterized by incisive slashes or punctures, invoking a sense of depth and space. The sharp lines and defined edges emphasize the break from traditional two-dimensional art forms, inviting viewers to contemplate the infinite possibilities beyond the canvas. The overall composition is minimalist yet thought-provoking, characteristic of Fontana’s innovative approach within the Spatialism movement.
