‘Second-generation’ Schermo (Screen) composed of a white-painted canvas, stretched over a projecting wooden frame and enclosed within a black frame without glass. At the centre of the protruding section stands the word ‘Fine’ (The End), a leitmotif in Mauri’s work and an indicator of a projection that has already taken place. The piece was one of four screens that introduced the installation La Luna (see inv. 922) in the exhibition Vitalità del Negativo in 1970, each bearing the word ‘The End’ in Italian, English, German and French, as documented in photographs by Ugo Mulas. For greater insight into the concept of ‘schermo’ in Mauri’s work, see the introductory essays.
