Toward the Ultramarine

Among the works so-called oltremare ( ultramarine, "beyond the sea") there is Verso Oltremare ( Toward the Ultramarine), 1984, which consists of a large, triangular-shaped stone slab, positioned almost vertically and held in balance by a steel cable, so that the upper vertex inclines toward, but does not quite touch, a small rectangle of ultramarine blue painted on the wall.
