La cornice. Storie, teorie, testi.

21.05.2025

The frame fulfills the task of isolating the work of art, shielding the image from external interference, and connecting the internal elements of the work itself. It is not a marginal detail.
The corners, the thickness, the color—everything contributes to establishing meaning, amplifying significance, creating islands, protections, autonomy.
There is so much to learn from reading the essay The Frame. Stories, Theories, Texts. Every collector should have it in their library to better understand the deeper meanings of this essential part of their beloved collection.
It’s a book that interests us because it heightens awareness and gives value to gestures that seem simple on the surface, but are, in fact, a crucial part of the gallerist’s work.
