ALBERTO DI FABIO
(DI FABIO, ALBERTO). Jones, Alan. London: Gagosian Gallery, 2007. First Edition. Small Square 4to. Debossed Illustrated Boards. Artist Monograph. As New/No Jacket - As Issued.. 48pp, profusely illustrated in color. Designed by Barr Gilmore Art + Designs. With a bibliography. This is elegantly designed, well-illustrated hardbound catalogue published in conjunction with a 2007 Gagosian Gallery London exhibition of then-recent paintings by Alberto Di Fabio entitled "Vortices". "Di Fabio's work merges the worlds of art and science with themes of biology, ecology and nature. This particular series of works explores structures of the human body and brain. Large-scale paintings pulsate with colorful organic shapes. The images are microscopic in their focus, implying biological diagrams, cellular structures, flora, eco systems, and pharmacological research. Di Fabio creates abstract paintings by overlapping layers of images abstracted from scientific and medical references and his own reflections, enlarging the particulars and adding details". A brand new, pristine example still in the publisher's shrinkwrap. 1-932598-61-8 Inventory Number: 020440
