The present essay aims at tracing the critical debate developing in the 1970s in Italy around so-called Pittura analitica (Analytic Painting), while identifying Filiberto Menna and Giorgio Cortenova as two of the most relevant critical voices of the time. It also aims at clarifying such a label, inviting readers to rethink traditional categories and chronologies while reassessing the general status and role of the painting medium.
