Abstract

The author provides an analysis of the Labyrinth of Pontevedra by Robert Morris, one of the most important artists on the international scene of the last 50 years. Morris’ status is founded on the aesthetic coordinates that have defined his work from the moment of his involvement in minimalism and land art –coordinates that have proved crucial to the transition sculpture has made from modernity to postmodernity– and on the unique nature of the new context in which he was invited to work, one characterised by a weighty cultural load of prehistoric origin and by the aesthetics of granite.
