Enrico Baj - Giovanni Raboni - Artist book // Sull’acqua by Enrico Baj, created in 2003, is an artist book that blends mixed media techniques, showcasing Baj’s imaginative approach to art. Measuring 50 x 36 cm, this sculptural object transforms the book form into a dynamic visual experience. The cover features textured materials such as fabric, metal elements, and various found objects, assembled to create abstract figures and forms. The interplay of textures and materials, including threads, copper pipes, and nuts, creates a tactile and almost mechanical aesthetic, reminiscent of Baj's interest in blending organic and industrial elements. The use of deep reds and metallics contrasts against a patterned background, giving the piece a sense of depth and character. This artist book is a collaborative work with poet Giovanni Raboni, merging visual and literary art forms.

What is the CoBrA movement?
CoBrA stands for Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam; the group was formed with a desire to break away from the existing art movements of the time. Their critique of Western society led them to experiment and evolve into a significant international movement. CoBrA was founded on November 8, 1948, at the Notre Dame Café in Paris, where its manifesto was signed by Karel Appel, Joseph Noiret, Corneille, Christian Dotremont, Constant, and Asger Jorn. The group was united by a shared commitment to freedom in both form and color, and their work emphasized experimentation and spontaneity.
