Summary An indefatigable experimenter with new creative possibilities, with his work, the Italian artist Ugo Nespolo (1941- ) has given shape to a poetics that stands out in the contemporary art scene by existing on the border between avant-garde and pop. He has experimented in almost every field of art, in and out of different screens, from paintings to installations and cinema. This book is a collection of philosophical essays that analyse Nespolo's poetics from different theoretical perspectives, focused in particular on his artworks and films. The book consists of three sections. The first includes essays dedicated to Nespolo's works that fall within the visual arts. The second presents contributions that investigate his cinema and some of his films. The third section concludes the book with two interviews conducted at different stages of Nespolo's career, which tackle some of the key themes of his poetics, offering a direct insight into his theoretical reflection
