Alighiero e Boetti | "Probing the Mysteries of a Double Life", 1990 | (for Parkett 24)

The artist’s double rendering of twin subjects, separated by red color poured in the fold, is reminiscent of a Rorschach test. With an “and” between his first and last name, Boetti doubled his identity in the 1970s.

Quote from Parkett
“The works of Alighiero e Boetti open onto the world, onto the fluid passage of forms; they capture chaos without diminishing it, and one can always cross over from one work into another, while maintaining the same degree of precision, which demonstrates everything with the facts. If there is a route, it is one that leads where routes branch out, bifurcate and multiply. If there is a key, it is a passe-partout that opens and at the same time ‘closes’ every frame, every possible door.”
