Alighiero Boetti, an artist particularly dear to the museum that has dedicated its piazza to him, is the main character of the “PICCOLI MAXXI” series’ third volume. The book transports children into the magical world of this multifaceted character. It recounts his most famous and best-loved works, including Mappe and Mettere al mondo il mondo, and his travels in Afghanistan, stimulating the curiosity of young art lovers. Alighiero, with his ingenious ideas, accompanies them through the pages, immersed in a vortex of shapes and colours in which all the elements are to be discovered, reinvented and overturned, just like he did!
