Seven new art books explore public art, Paul Klee, and anti-tourism

Artribune Magazine #70 presents seven recent book recommendations spanning public art theory, classical sculpture, and contemporary Sardinian art. Cecilia Guida and Roberto Pinto's 'Le relazioni oltre le immagini' redefines public art as porous, interdisciplinary interventions in shared spaces. Gregorio Botta's 'Paul Klee. Genio e regolatezza' challenges the genius-madness trope by highlighting Klee's rigorous cataloging alongside expressive depth. François Rabelais's 'Buffe chimere' offers illustrated dream visions of Pantagruel. Ernst Buschor's 1948 monograph 'Fidia l'uomo' appears in Italian for the first time, thanks to Christian Marinotti Edizioni. Rodolphe Christin's 'Manuale dell’antiturismo' critiques mass tourism as part of a trilogy. Marco Folin's 'Ferrara estense' examines Renaissance architecture after twenty years of research. Roberta Vanali's 'XXI Arti visive in Sardegna nel terzo millennio' surveys the island's contemporary art scene through interviews with artists, curators, and collectors.
