This publication gives a comprehensive overview of the work of Italian artist Alberto Garutti. His innovative œuvre, consisting primarily of sculptures, installations, and works in public space, explores site-specificity along with its social realities and historical contexts. With the artistic and methodological strategies he has employed since the 1990s, he has revolutionized the vocabulary of public and site-specific art.ALBERTO GARUTTI (1948–2023) has been a key figure on the Italian and European contemporary art scene of the last forty years. Since the early 1990s, Garutti’s practice has evolved into a radical manifesto for public art. His works in the urban context—commissioned by cities and institutions around the world—are meant to be open devices for reimaging. As a practitioner of public art and a teacher at the Academy of Brera in Milan and at the IUAV in Venice who has influenced many generations of Italian artists, Alberto Garutti is considered one of the most influential Italian artists of his generation.
