Afro, Ragazzo con il Toro, 1954 (courtesy of Haunch of Venison)
D. Cloninger blogs about the exhibition Afro Burri Fontana at Haunch of Venison, New York, on view through April 28, 2012.
Cloninger writes that "the gallery sought to create a balanced show that would make evident the original dialogue between the three post-WWII Italian abstract artists and their American contemporaries [de Kooning, Twombly and Rauschenberg]..." and adds that "de Kooning worked in Afro's Rome studio during his years there."
