Guiseppe’s earliest works made use of unconventional materials such as wood, stone, clay and soil and were often site-specific; many of his earliest works were situated in the woodland local to his hometown of Piedmont- this series of work was titled Alpi Marittime.

« I have relationships with other artists because they understood the thinking behind my work. »
Penone Guiseppe

Thoughts of Leaves is also notable among the works that exemplify his interest in nature and our place alongside it; this piece draws comparisons between the traces left by the hands of the artist and the weathering and erosion of plants and minerals by the natural elements.

What is Arte Povera?

A movement and style in art that originated in Italy back in the 1960s. It combines concepts of minimalists, performance and conceptual art by making use of common or worthless materials like newspapers or stones with the hope of subverting the process of art commercialization.
