“This book arose out of the desire and ambition to translate the first fifteen years of Patrick Tuttofuoco’s densely visual artistic practice into words. But there is a second important moti- vation behind this initiative: the belief that the rhetoric that has been used to date in describing Tuttofuoco’s aesthetic adventure is too polarized between the pre- and post-2008 periods of his work, and that what is now needed is a tool of interpretation aimed at knitting together these two dimensions that seem antinomic, but upon closer observation are complementary and share the same investigative impulse.” - Nicola Ricciardi
