Manzoni's brief career was one of the most radically inventive of the twentieth century, producing a body of work that continues to challenge the definitions of artistic sovereignty and virtuosity to this day. This newly-translated biography charts Manzoni's evolution as both an artist and an individual, tracing a line from his youth and student days to his affiliation with Lucio Fontana to his untimely death in 1963.
