| Opplysninger | All texts were originally conceived, written and published in Italian. The present book constitutes a new and enlarged edition of the original works. The first part stems from three essays, "Spazio tempo luce (Il Futurismo di Boccioni)", "Le grand magicien" and "La frugalità di van Gogh". The second second and most extensive part is dedicated to the Greek-Athenaic sense of art. The third and shortest part presents an analysis of the relationship between art and nature. The second and third parts stem from a monograph entitled La provenienza dell'arte (Atena e l'enigma). - Potency's art, salubrity's art -- Athena and the enigma -- The two arts (a hint). - "In his book The Enigma of Art. On the provenance of Artistic Creation Gino Zaccaria offers a philosophical meditation on the issue of art in light of its original sense. The book shows how this sense can be fully understood provided that our thinking, on the one hand, returns to the ancient Greek world where it must heed, in particular, the voice and hints of the goddess Athena, and, on the other hand, listens to "artist-thinkers" close to our current epoch, like Cézanne, Boccioni or van Gogh. What will finally appear will not be an abstract notion of art, but its enigma; that is to say, the promise of a conversion of art itself towards its "other beginning""--
