Description: “From the genesis of my work this book leads, through 31 steps, to the genesis of the Universe. And, at the same time, to the genesis of a new society.” Michelangelo Pistoletto
In 31 Steps, Michelangelo Pistoletto recounts the human and artistic journey that led him to define the Formula of Creation. Also called by himself the Formula of Life.
The book traces, step by step, the path that human beings have gone through creating religion, politics, science and the cultures of society thanks to the germinal ferment of art. In these pages we understand how to deal with the epochal transition that humanity is experiencing, engulfed by the general crisis of the systems it has created.
With the Formula of Creation, Michelangelo Pistoletto offers us the opportunity to reconsider the hinges of our existence and calls us to a new responsibility toward ourselves, toward each other, and toward the nature of which we are a part. It is the book that turns the page. The universal rule, identified in the Formula of Creation, becomes, through the book's path, applicable in every moment of daily life. It is a call to use the Formula of Creation to become co-authors of a new society.

Made by Michelangelo Pistoletto.
