"Dal Partenone al panettone": Francesco Bonami hits again with his new publication
Jeff Koons vs Benvenuto Cellini
Edward Hopper vs Richard Prince
Gian Lorenzo Bernini vs Maurizio Cattelan
Bonami is a strange character, he has not a claer job; in his website he defines himself as a curator, writer, activist, optimist and casinist.
During his lectures he always says something that makes someone angry and certainly also his last book will have the same effect on many readers.
It is a sort of journey in art history, from ancient Egypt to the contemporary, through 130 couple of images in wich Bonami hazards the most unusual connections between ancient and modern works of art.
He dares comparing the "Cristo Morto" by Mantegna with a picture of the Che, the "Giudizio Universale" by Michelangelo with the Pollock paintings and a Bernini sculpture with a Cattelan piece.
There is no doubt that also this publication will make talk about itself.
