At Prada Rong Zhai, Prada presents “Roma 1950–1965,” an exhibition organized by Fondazione Prada. At Prada Rong Zhai in Shanghai, Prada presents the exhibition “Roma 1950-1965,” organized by Fondazione Prada, and conceived and curated by Fondazione’s Artistic and Scientific Superintendent Germano Celant. The exhibition explores the exciting cultural climate and lively art scene that developed in Rome during the period following World War II, bringing together over 30 paintings and sculptures by artists including Carla Accardi, Afro Basaldella, Mirko Basaldella, Alberto Burri, Giuseppe Capogrossi, Ettore Colla, Pietro Consagra, Piero Dorazio, Nino Franchina, Gastone Novelli, Antonio Sanfilippo, Toti Scialoja, and Giulio Turcato. “Roma 1950-1965” also investigates the important role the Italian capital fulfilled in the Italian cultural and moviemaking scene through a collection of documents from that period that evoke the historical and artistic contexts of their day. First built in 1918 and designated a cultural patrimony of the Jing’an district in 2004, the historical residence Rong Zhai was reopened in October 2017 following a long, painstaking restoration process undertaken by Prada in order to restore the building to its original splendor and magnificence. Currently organized into flexible spaces that can be used for different activities organized by the Prada Group in China, it is the expression of an ongoing commitment to promoting Chinese culture and Asian-European dialogue, and inspired Miuccia Prada and Patrizio Bertelli to seek out new opportunities and investigations in art and architecture around China. The exhibition “Roma 1950–1965” - open to the public from 23 March to 27 May 2018 - is part of the program of cultural events and initiatives inaugurated last autumn with a fashion show featuring the Prada Resort 2018 collection, as well as an exhibition dedicated to restoration work conducted around the building and previous architectural efforts conducted by both Prada and Fondazione Prada.

Trent’anni di chiavi di lettura Siamo arrivati ai trent’anni, quindi siamo in quell’età in cui ci sentiamo maturi senza esserlo del tutto e abbiamo tantissime energie da spendere per il futuro. Sono energie positive, che vengono dal sostegno e dal riconoscimento che il cammino fin qui percorso per far crescere ArtePadova da quella piccola edizio- ne inaugurale del 1990, ci sta portando nella giusta direzione. Siamo qui a rap- presentare in campo nazionale, al meglio per le nostre forze, un settore difficile per il quale non è ammessa l’improvvisazione, ma serve la politica dei piccoli passi; siamo qui a dimostrare con i dati di questa edizione del 2019, che siamo stati seguiti con apprezzamento da un numero crescente di galleristi, di artisti, di appassionati cultori dell’arte. E possiamo anche dire, con un po’ di vanto, che negli anni abbiamo dato il nostro contributo di conoscenza per diffondere tra giovani e meno giovani l’amore per l’arte moderna: a volte snobbata, a volte non compresa, ma sempre motivo di dibattito e di curiosità. Un tentativo questo che da qualche tempo stiamo incentivando con l’apertura ai giovani artisti pro- ponendo anche un’arte accessibile a tutte le tasche: tanto che nei nostri spazi figurano, democraticamente fianco a fianco, opere da decine di migliaia di euro di valore ed altre che si fermano a poche centinaia di euro. Se abbiamo attraversato indenni il confine tra due secoli con le sue crisi, è per- ché l’arte è sì bene rifugio, ma sostanzialmente rappresenta il bello, dimostra che l’uomo è capace di grandi azzardi e di mettersi sempre in gioco sperimen- tando forme nuove di espressione; l’arte è tecnica e insieme fantasia, ovvero un connubio unico e per questo quasi magico tra terra e cielo.

Rome – Milan: Space and Colour, Rhythm and Matter 1 October
Press Release Rome – Milan: Space and Colour, Rhythm and Matter 1 October – 28 November 2020 Private View: 1 October 2020, 12-8pm by appointment Mazzoleni is delighted to announce the launch of the new exhibition season in its London gallery on 1 October 2020, with the group show Rome – Milan: Space and Colour, Rhythm and Matter. The show brings together a number of the leading figures of the Italian art scene that were operating in these two major Italian cities with works realised mainly between the 1950s and 1960s. Acclaimed for their artistic revolutions, pioneers Lucio Fontana (1899-1968) and Alberto Burri (1915-1995) were the points of departure and reference for the experimentation later conducted by the artists born in the 1930s such as Agostino Bonalumi (1935-2013), Enrico Castellani (1930-2017), Dadamaino (1930-2004), Jannis Kounellis (1936-2017), Piero Manzoni (1933-1963) and Mario Schifano (1934-1998). They were to explore new and further strands of research as their artistic careers evolved. Fontana’s innovative reflections on space and Burri’s in-depth experimentation with materials were to be the driving forces behind the development of new artistic idioms. In parallel, predominantly through painting, Giulio Turcato (1912-1995), Piero Dorazio (1927-2005) and Carla Accardi (1924 -2014) (already members of the group Forma 1) combined a skilled use of shapes and colours with new “painterly” materials such as, foam rubber, enamels and casein. Meanwhile Giuseppe Capogrossi (1900-1972), the founder with Burri of the Origine group, developed a personal sign alphabet. In sculpture, from his debut alongside Lucio Fontana, Fausto Melotti (1901-1986) developed a lyrical and poetic dimension that led him to a truly unique artistic path of the Italian art scene.

HTTPS://DOI.ORG/10.14324/111.2396-9008.034 ‘A KIND OF FISSURE’: FORMA (1947-1949) Catherine Ingrams We declare ourselves to be Formalists and Marxists, convinced that the terms Marxism and Formalism are not irreconcilable, especially today when the progressive elements of our society must maintain a revolutionary avant-garde position and not give over to a spent and conformist realism that in its most recent examples have demonstrated what a limited and narrow road it is on.1 hese are the opening lines of Forma’s manifesto, signed in Rome in March 1947 by eight young artists: Carla Accardi, Ugo Attardi, Pietro TConsagra, Piero Dorazio, Mino Guerrini, Achille Perilli, Antonio Sanfilippo and Giulio Turcato. They had met during the previous year through the realist painter, Renato Guttuso, a fellow member of the Italian Communist Party (the PCI) and a would-be mentor to them. Guttuso was on a trip to Paris when Forma signed their manifesto in his studio, a place where he had been letting many of them stay. With its contemptuous dismissal of realism, together with the method of its execution, Forma’s manifesto came as a compound rejection of Guttuso’s art, his hospitality and his network of connections, and it acted as a deliberate gesture of rupture, one which announced Forma’s ambitions to belong to ‘a revolutionary avant-garde’. In the discussion that follows, I connect Forma’s rhetoric of rupture with a more complex socio-political context, and I move to engage their art as a gesture of historical resistance worked through their reimagined return to the theories of Russian Formalism.

Press Release
Press Release LIGHT IN MOTION: Balla, Dorazio, Zappettini 30 September – 9 December 2017 Private View: Friday 29 September, 6–8pm Mazzoleni is pleased to announce its autumn exhibition ‘LIGHT IN MOTION: Balla, Dorazio, Zappettini’, whicH will explore shared tHemes in tHe work of three major Italian artists working througHout the 20th century, Giacomo Balla (1871–1958), Piero Dorazio (1927–2005) and Gianfranco Zappettini (b. 1939). The exhibition will bring together key works by each artist to demonstrate their shared mastery of ligHt, colour and perception during three pivotal moments in Post-War Italian art, Futurism, Lyrical Abstraction and Pittura Analitica. The exhibition will include over a dozen works on loan from private collections, never before exhibited in tHe UK. It is curated by Elena Gigli. Giacomo Balla, whose work was recently tHe subject of a major exHibition at tHe Estorick Collection, was a key proponent of Futurism. An original co-signatory of Marinetti’s Futurist Manifesto, signed in Milan in 1910, Balla was a pioneering figure of European Modernism. His work influenced many artists between tHe late 19tH and early 20tH centuries, with its characteristic preoccupation with new technology, speed, movement and light. He and his Futurist contemporaries were interested in abstract explorations of the rapidly evolving tecHnological advances of the time. The geometric style Balla developed, often composed of intersecting colourful bands, was cHampioned for its evocation of movement. BotH tHese Futurist works and tHe earlier Divisionist works that Balla produced at the start of his career were hugely influential on the development of younger artists, including subsequent collaborators and Futurist contemporaries.

Josef Albers Max Bill Piero Dorazio Manuel Espinosa Friedrich Vordemberge-Gildewart Manuel Espinosa in Europe Josef Albers Max Bill Piero Dorazio Manuel Espinosa Friedrich Vordemberge-Gildewart Frieze Masters 2019 - Stand E7 Manuel Espinosa and his European Grand Tour Dr. Flavia Frigeri Once upon a time, it was fashionable among young members of the British and northern European upper classes to embark on what came to be known as the Grand Tour. A rite of passage of sorts, the Grand Tour was predicated on the exploration of classical antiquity and Renaissance masterpieces encountered on a pilgrimage extending from France all the way to Greece. Underpinning this journey of discovery was a sense of cultural elevation, which in turn fostered a revival of classical ideals and gave birth to an international network of artists and thinkers. The Grand Tour reached its apex in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, after which interest in the great classical beauties of France, Italy and Greece slowly waned.1 Fast-forward to 1951, the year in which the Argentine artist Manuel Espinosa left his native Buenos Aires to embark on his own Grand Tour of Europe. Unlike his cultural forefathers, Espinosa was not lured by 4 Fig. 1 Founding members of the Concrete-Invention Art Association pictured in 1946. Espinosa is third from the right, back row.
