Emilio Prini well illustrates the spirit of Arte Povera: the artist is not the creator of artefacts, nor even of a documented 'happening'. In the transferral of energy and subjectivity into matter or an event, the work exists in the instant it comes into being and is simultaneously received.
To document his work in photographs and present these as a record of it contradicts the very basis of Prini's art.
