X-RAYS
1979/2004

Gillo Dorfles focused his attention on the X-Rays stating what follows:

…“Meneghetti’s X-Rays have stood out as the only new significant reality
in the Italian art over the last twenty years”…

Now that the x-ray is widely used in many art forms and in advertising, the technique adopted by Meneghetti no longer creates surprise or scandal.
It must also be recognised that he was undoubtedly among the first, if not the very first, to see the aesthetic rather than scientific interest in this medium, and above all to detect the deeper meanings in its use…”.
