Enzo Mari started with paintings of matter-informal art, focused on the Carsic area. He invented a special type of frottage to render the thridimensionality on the canvas. Applying his technique to the ecological issue of waste paper, to the organic one of hide, to the testimonial of the Holy Shroud, he came to banners, where he unusually shows off the theme of historical records.
