Le bare (Coffins), 1980

in this artwork, there is the alternation of two different techniques: geometric shapes and assemblage. This collection is composed of two pieces and it is made by Brajo Fuso during his latest artistic period. It recalls the destiny of each of us that cannot be escaped, representing death and the geometrical space in which the body will lie forever (the coffin). This is also a prediction for the artist, who died in 1980, the same year in which he made this collection.

Mobloggetto nero, 1964

Mobloggetto represents Brajo’s familiarity with Pop Art guidelines. The year of its creation, 1964, shows the attention of the artist to the contemporary art period. In fact, in the same year, the American artist Robert Rauschenberg wins the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale, legitimising American art that was already spread in Europe and the world after the economic boom.

DECORATED FIREPLACE

Since 1961, Brajo and Bettina Fuso are committed to the creation of the Fuseum. For this reason, they spend their time in Montemalbe during the summer season. Their house’s name is Brajta. The name recalls little tiny houses of mountainous regions and it enhances their cosy feature. The inner walls, the furnishing pieces and the decorative items inside the Brajta are entirely decorated. This is evidence of Brajo’s vision that everything can turn into artwork, even though the majority of his works were not meant to be artwork but were made mainly for fun. The Brajta was renovated and inaugurated in June 2012 as House Museum, and inside there are also documents reporting information about Brajo Fuso as an artist and a doctor.

La Dentata

A part of agricultural machinery turns into an artwork. The vertical thrust makes it similar to a magical totem. Spikes of machinery scraps recall thorns on the stems of roses: they aim to preserve the beauty of the sculpture, as thorns preserve the beauty of the flower.
