Bordoni was one of the most prolific contributors to MAC's publication Documenti d'arte d'oggi. His original silkscreens, woodcuts and lithographs show a powerful and highly-alert sense of rhythm, and their gestural authority and boldly vibrant use of color link this non-figurative Italian "concrete art" movement with the contemporary Abstract Expressionism of the USA.
