Product description
This volume explores one of the most fascinating and least understood aspects of Salvatore Scarpitta’s creativity.
Thanks to archival photos, an in-depth analysis of these works has been made possible, particularly the Sal Ardun Special car, which aesthetically follows the cars built by Scarpitta in the 1960s, but differs as it features a functioning engine for the first time.
The essays in the catalog accurately outline the artist’s figure and rigorously explain the genesis and theoretical context in which these works take shape, develop, are exhibited, and are introduced to the general public.
Scarpitta’s works have been exhibited in Europe and the United States.
