'Art is eternal, but it cannot be immortal, we plan to separate art from matter, to separate the sense of the eternal from the concern with the immortal. And it doesn't matter to us if a gesture, once accomplished, lives for a second or a millennium, for we are convinced that, having accomplished it, it is eternal' (The First Spatial Manifesto signed by L. Fontana, G. Kaisserlian, B. Joppolo, M. Milan, reproduced in E. Crispolti & R. Siligato (eds.), Lucio Fontana, exh. cat., 1998, pp. 117-118).
