Michelangelo Pistoletto

ArtForum,  Sept, 1999  by Giorgio Verzotti

HENRY MOORE FOUNDATION STUDIO/MUSEUM OF MODERN ART OXFORD

Michelangelo Pistoletto's celebrated mirror pieces signaled the broad-based emotional cooling that would beget '60s Pop. Yet while the life-size photographic portraits against mirrored surfaces are often taken as typical of the period, they exhibit an alienating, conceptual dimension that was not fully to unfold for another decade. The Oxford exhibition, curated by Michael Tarantino, is dedicated to the mirror works from the '60s and '70s, while the Henry Moore Foundation features a series of large metal environments/containers created specifically for the occasion. Oct. 17, 1999-Jan. 2, 2000; travels to Museu d'Art Contemporani, Barcelona, dates to be announced.
