Tornabuoni Art Paris hosts an exhibition that brings together two of the greatest innovators of 20th-century artistic language: Giorgio Morandi and Lucio Fontana.

This project continues an unprecedented dialogue that began at the CAMeC in La Spezia with Morandi and Fontana. Invisible and infinite (2025). Curated by Sergio Risaliti, Director of the Museo Novecento in Florence, the Paris exhibition will offer French and international audiences new insights into the underlying connections between Giorgio Morandi (Bologna, 1890 – 1964) and Lucio Fontana (Rosario, 1899 – Comabbio, 1968).

Two seemingly parallel trajectories, destined never to intersect except at infinity, find convergence beyond the visible; where art transcends the limits of optical perception and guides the gaze toward the unreachable infinite and the invisible within things. For Morandi, this journey involves revealing the essence of the most ordinary and familiar objects, beyond immediate perception and recognizable form. Fontana confronts metaphysics directly, breaking with figurative tradition by cutting into the canvas—the very surface that, for centuries, served to replicate reality. With a decisive gesture, he moves beyond illusionism, creating an opening into an infinite space that lies beyond the flat dimension.

Through a carefully curated selection of works, the exhibition explores the dialogue between two visions united by a shared aspiration: to transcend the boundaries of traditional representation. Morandi and Fontana, through distinct approaches—one contemplative and suspended, the other spatial and rupturing—present a profound reflection on the nature of art, the interplay between form and space, and the tension between the finite and the infinite.
