This monumental publication on the artist Jannis Kounellis covers the entirety of his career from the late 1950s thorugh the 1990s. Kounellis was a co-founder of the Italian movement Arte Povera and used a variety of materials, organic (coffee, coal), and inorganic (steel plates, textiles), to create his sculptural works, which speak to basic and elemental themes like heat, creation, decay, endurance, and more. 385 illustrations
