Claudio Borghi, was born in Barlassina (Milan) in 1954, he is an artist and teacher of art history who studied at the Academy of Brera. Sculpture is the discipline that made him famous: a genial heir of two centuries of Milanese tradition, Borghi refuses the literary concept of modernity in order to follow his own and personal artistical path that makes of him a sculptor en poète. His sculpture is always conceived as a body, a substance that changes in time and keeps his sensuality and disposition to physical modifications, perceivable by eyes and touch. This book presents the most recent works by Claudio Borghi: each one is introduced by a commentary of the sculptor that permits the reader to seize its deepest poetic meaning. In these works the artist renounces the composition of dramatic matters thanks to complex articulations, a peculiar feature of his production before 1998, in order to rediscover the elementary forms implicitly anthropomorfic of menhirs.
