  • VALERIO ADAMI Diario Del Lago
    VALERIO ADAMI Diario del lago a cura di Vera Agosti CITTA’ DI CANNOBIO PALAZZO PARASI La Città di Cannobio con la personale di Valerio Adami, “Diario del Lago”, prosegue il percorso delle mostre a Palazzo Parasi, confermando così la ferma intenzione di dare ampio spazio alla promozione culturale sotto le più varie forme. Le lodi molto lusinghiere che abbiamo ricevuto per il fatto di riuscire, pur essendo Cannobio una piccola realtà, a realizzare progetti di grande rilevanza culturale che hanno avuto eco all’interno dei luoghi frequentati da specialisti del settore dell’arte, ci spronano a continuare lungo il percorso intrapreso. Valerio Adami, maestro colto e raffinato dell’arte contemporanea mondiale, impreziosisce ulteriormente con la sua presenza questo nostro progetto. Da sempre consacrato alla figurazione, racconta “l’uomo sociale d’oggi”. Lui stesso spiega: “Dipingo in prosa ma qualche rima scappa via”. Attraverso il mezzo privilegiato della linea e usando colori piatti e antinaturalistici, l’artista crea composizioni movimentate su più piani, enigmatiche ed intriganti. Con il maestro Adami Cannobio intende offrire ai cittadini ed ai numerosi ospiti italiani e stranieri un’opportunità culturale di altissimo livello che si estenderà, attraverso il percorso lungo la naturale via del Lago, fino a Ghiffa, all’interno dello spazio espositivo del Brunitoio, dove si svolgerà una mostra di Grafiche dello stesso autore. Rivolgiamo i nostri sinceri ringraziamenti alla curatrice Vera Agosti, che con la grande passione che la contraddistingue, ha contribuito alla realizzazione del progetto; alla Galleria Tega di Milano che, credendo in questo importante impegno, ha messo a disposizione molte delle opere esposte.

  • Valerio Adami
    VALERIO ADAMI Valerio Adami, La valle del petrolio, 1964, oil on canvas, 180 x 140 cm. Photo: Filippo Armellin, Courtesy: Fondazione Marconi, Milano July 1 – August 28, 2016 Opening: April 21, 2016, 7 p.m. Press conference: April 20, 2016, 10 a.m. The painter and illustrator Valerio Adami is widely regarded as an eminent representative of Italian Pop art. His exhibition in the Secession’s Grafisches Kabinett is the artist’s first solo show in Austria and showcases a series of paintings from his less well-known early oeuvre. Created before 1964, these works stand out for the particularly dynamic interplay between expressive abstraction and stylized figuration. Explosive discharges of energy are the dominant motif in the selected starkly simplified depictions. Adami’s pictorial spaces teem with bodies wrestling with each other and objects being blown to a thousand pieces, with energy fields, cosmic rays, fire, and dense clouds of smoke. Interspersed between them like quotations lifted from a cartoon are speech bubbles and onomatopoetic words signaling the pictures’ pop and bang. The characteristic features of Adami’s work from this time are the evolution of many of his forms out of the graphical gesture and the painterly structure he lends to different surfaces, probing the ostensible contradiction between individual emotional expression and a deadpan delivery devoid of subjective inflections with almost effortless ease. Starting in 1964, Valerio Adami’s visual language developed in a fundamentally new direction. The temperamental graphical hand that thrills in his earlier works recedes in favor of a new style defined by elemental and clearly contoured shapes and areas of flatly even paint.

  • PRESS RELEASE 7 March 2016 ITALIAN POP VALERIO ADAMI
    Valerio Adami, Complet, 1970 Courtesy Tornabuoni Art PRESS RELEASE 7 March 2016 ITALIAN POP VALERIO ADAMI / FRANCO ANGELI / MARIO CEROLI / TANO FESTA / GIOSETTA FIORONI / MIMMO ROTELLA / MARIO SCHIFANO / CESARE TACCHI 22 APRIL – 18 JUNE 2016 21 APRIL (10:00 – 11:30 am) Breakfast and conference on Italian Pop Art (6:00 – 8:00 pm) Private View For the second group show in its Mayfair gallery, Tornabuoni Art London leaves the abstraction of Lucio Fontana and Arnaldo Pomodoro to focus on the socially engaged and figurative movement of Italian Pop Art. “We wanted to provide a counterpoint to Italian post-war abstraction and the Milanese avant-garde that we typically show at Tornabuoni Art,” says gallery director Ursula Casamonti, “and present a different side to the Italian 1960s, one driven by Rome and by the people’s relationship to Italian culture and the ‘Dolce Vita’.” The transition from abstraction to figurative Pop aesthetics becomes evident with the work of Mimmo Rotella (1918 - 2006), whose décollage practice consisted in tearing and superposing posters, and then peeling parts of each layer in order to obtain unique works of art. At first completely abstract, Rotella later became interested in using the vernacular of popular films and advertising, exploiting the imagery of their posters; making him one of precursors of Pop Art in Italy. The Italian Pop Art movement only became formalised in the early sixties, in Rome, with the founding of the Scuola di Piazza del Popolo, by Mario Schifano (1934 – 1998), Giosetta Fioroni (b. 1932), Tano Festa (1938 – 1988) and Franco Angeli (1935 -1988).

  • DESIRE, ABSENCE and ART in DELEUZE and LYOTARD Kiff Bamford
    PARRHESIA NUMBER 16 • 2013 • 48-60 DESIRE, ABSENCE AND ART IN DELEUZE AND LYOTARD Kiff Bamford In an undated letter, Giles Deleuze writes the following to Jean-François Lyotard: One thing continues to surprise me, the more it happens that we have shared or close thoughts, the more it happens that an irritating difference comes into sight which even I don’t succeed in locating. It is like our relationship: the more I love you, the less I am able to come to grasp it, but what is it?1\ There is a proximity between the work of these two thinkers that remains little considered, it is one that also hides a subtle, but significantly different attitude to desire. The proliferation of interest in Deleuze, particularly since his death, is accompanied by new considerations of desire which echo Lyotard’s libidinal writings very strongly—Elizabeth Grosz’s 2008 Chaos, Territory, Art: Deleuze and the Framing of the Earth is one example.2 Because of the close proximity of Lyotard and Deleuze, it is rewarding to carefully consider the differences among their many similarities (and here I am consciously making no distinction between those writings authored singly by Deleuze and those written collaboratively with Guattari). The manner in which both Lyotard and Deleuze write on art might be described as writing with art and artists rather than about them, insomuch as they give prominence to the ideas, statements and working methods described, and privilege the role of the artist as enacting a different type of thought.3 In Anti-Oedipus this attitude is clear: “the artist presents paranoiac machines, miraculating-machines, and celibate machines […] the work of art is itself a desiring-machine.”4 It is not that they write in two genres: art criticism and philosophy, but that their writings cross the circumscribed boundaries of these genres to ask questions of each.
