Testamento Di Intenzionalita’.

Rome: (np) (1977). First edition. [316 pp]. Fine in printed wrappers. Faietti’s philosophy of art is that if you have an artistic idea, you are an artist, your idea is Art; in fact, Art is only Intention (Intenziionalita’); it is not necessary that the artistic idea be realized. Faietti also has telephoned various famous artists and asked them what their ‘intentions’ are, and then presents those intentions as art; he has also presented his encephalogram as an example of visual poetry. After some front matter in Italian, this book is entirely photographs of collages with poetry by Faietti.
