PAOLO DI PAOLO. Mondo Perduto Curated by Giovanna Calvenzi PAOLO DI PAOLO. Mondo perduto curated by Giovanna Calvenzi A previously unseen exploration of the contradictions and hopes of the Italy of the '50s and '60s, narrated through more than 250 images of the greats of the worlds of film, art, culture and fashion and ordinary people 17 April – 1 September 2019 | MAXXI National Museum of 21st Century Arts Main Sponsor: Gucci www.maxxi.art Rome, 16 April 2019. He was the best loved photographer of Mario Pannunzio’s magazine Il Mondo, in which, over the course of 14 years, he published 573 photos, reporting on Italy and the world. He portrayed film stars, writers, artists, the nobility and ordinary people. Famously, he explored the Italian coastline with Pier Paolo Pasolini, documenting Italian vacations. Paolo Di Paolo (from Larino, Molise, class of 1925) was an extraordinary chronicler of the Italy of the ‘50s and ‘60s who recorded with delicacy, rigour and skill the country that was being reforged from the ashes of the Second World War. MAXXI, the National Museum of 21st Century Arts, is dedicating a major exhibition to him and his extraordinary life. PAOLO DI PAOLO. Mondo perduto is curated by Giovanna Calvenzi and sponsored by Gucci. The exhibition is part of the museum’s growing photography programme, fostered by Giovanna Melandri, President of the MAXXI Foundation (17th April - 30th June 2019). The exhibition features more than 250 images, many of which are previously unseen, part of an immense archive (250,000 negatives, contact sheets, prints and slides) found by chance by his daughter Silvia in a cellar around 20 years ago. Shortly after the closure of Il Mondo in 1966, Paolo Di Paolo, feeling that he was “no longer in tune with the times, with the society that was coming into being”, abandoned his camera and at little more than 40 years old returned to his philosophical studies and the publishing world, launching a collaboration with the Carabinieri, for which he curated around 20 books and 43 calendars. Di Paolo turned over a new leaf and his wonderful, inestimable archive ended up forgotten in a cellar. His daughter’s discovery and the interest of Alessandro Michele, Creative Director at Gucci, and that of the President of MAXXI Giovanna Melandri and that of Bartolomeo Pietromarchi, director of MAXXI Arte, have led to the publication of the book Paolo Di Paolo. Mondo Perduto, Fotografie 1954-1968, which was presented at MAXXI in December last year, and this exhibition. The exhibition The exhibition has been organised in sections that intersect and establish dialogues with one another, rotating around a reconstruction of the newsroom at Il Mondo, with desks, lamps and images of Mario Pannunzio at work with his copyeditors. The section Society/Rome presents the country emerging from poverty and illiteracy in the immediate post- war years with hopes and contradictions; a country in which young women wearing veils and carrying baskets on their heads at Campobasso lived alongside girls in shorts on the seafront at Viareggio, where the agricultural community coexisted with the Ferrari workshops, and donkeys were used as beasts of burden while passengers flew on the new airlines. Particular attention is paid to Rome: Di Paolo photographed the city's nobility and the sparkling international high society frequenting the capital, working with, among others, Irene Brin at Harper’s Bazaar, but also the funeral of Palmiro Togliatti, with a weeping old lady in the foreground. Society/World features shots from his reportages from Japan, Iran and New York. Particularly rich sections are devoted to Artists/Intellectuals and Film, with portraits of painters, poets, writers and film stars, mostly previously unseen and taken for pleasure. Lucio Fontana at the Biennale, Carla Accardi in Rome, Renato Guttuso on the Salita del Grillo, Mimmo Rotella creating one of his décollages in Piazza del Popolo, Ezra Pound, Tennessee Williams on the beach with his dog, Giuseppe Ungaretti with a cat in his arms, an unusual portrait of Oriana Fallaci “playing” at being a diva at the Venice Lido, Kim Novak ironing in her room in the Grand Hotel, Sofia Loren joking with Marcello Mastroianni in a studio at Cinecittà, Monica Vitti and Michelangelo Antonioni walking while reading a newspaper, and Simone Signoret and Yves Montand kissing at the Aventino. Then there are the “impossible” encounters captured for the weekly news magazine Tempo: Giorgio De Chirico together with Gina Lollobrigida, Salvatore Quasimodo with Anita Ekberg, Luchino Visconti with Mina, Nilde Iotti with Renato Rascel, and Alberto Moravia with Claudia Cardinale. With each of his portrait subjects, Di Paolo created a relationship based on empathy, trust and complicity that made every shot unique and unmistakeable: “Many of his photos” - writes his daughter Silvia Di Paolo - “remained unpublished because they were so intimate that it would have been inappropriate to give them to the newspapers.” Like those of Yves Montand in Rome, Oriana Fallaci in Venice and Anna Magnani on the beach. A special group of pictures in the Film section is dedicated to Anna Magnani. Anticipating that the paparazzi would be following her and knowing the courtesy and style of Di Paolo, the star invited him to her villa at the Circeo and, for the first time, allowed herself to be photographed with her son. Another group is devoted to Pier Paolo Pasolini, portrayed at Monte dei Cocci in Rome, thoughtful at the tomb of Gramsci in the Non- Catholic Cemetery, at home with his mother and, in Basilicata, on the set of Il Vangelo secondo Matteo, where Di Paolo was the only photographer allowed in. This group leads to another, La Lunga Strada di Sabbia, a portfolio of 1959 documenting Italian vacations. Here, the magazine Successo, edited by Arturo Tofanelli, had the idea for an innovative pairing of Paolo Di Paolo and Pier Paolo Pasolini for the project. One of the most iconic images portrays Pasolini himself walking on the Cinquale beach at Viareggio while observing the young bathers. In Paolo Di Paolo’s images, says Bartolomeo Pietromarchi, Director of MAXXI Arte, well-known and anonymous faces re-emerge from the past in previously unseen poses, presenting us with a surprising proximity and intimacy, with Di Paolo’s lens masterfully capturing moods, characters, vanity and truth. “In the years of the spread of humanist photography along French lines, together with the images and scoops of the Rome paparazzi,” says the exhibition curator Giovanna Calvenzi, “Di Paolo found an independent, different, cultured path. He has the capacity of entering the world of art, literature and film with a light, and at times humorous, touch. He possesses a natural gift for seeing an overview of the situations he frames and an ability to place people in relation to space, in a kind of circularity of vision that obliges the observer to read his photographs starting with the subject and going on to discover all those elements that render that subject central and a protagonist in a wider narrative”.

Mondo perduto 17 April – 1 September 2019 INTRODUCTION In 1949 Paolo Di Paolo was 24 and had just arrived in Rome from Larino, a small village in Molise, to study history and philosophy. He stayed in the Student House and made a living by doing a host of jobs, in the end becoming chief editor for a travel magazine. In 1954 his life changed radically: he fell in love with the Leica III C camera, he resigned, bought it on instalment and started as an amateur photographer, «in the sense of taking photos for pleasure». He frequented the artistic circles in Rome and came into contact with Gruppo Forma 1: it was his artistic friends who suggested he offer the photos to the weekly cultural magazine Il Mondo, founded and edited by Mario Pannunzio. Paolo Di Paolo would soon become one of the publication’s closest collaborators and over the years he published 573 photographs, in which protagonists from the world of art, culture, fashion, and cinema, alongside normal people, told the tale of the Italy that was being reborn from the tragedies of the Second World War. He also collaborated with the most interesting national and international periodicals of the era until 1966 when, with the closure of Il Mondo and the editorial changes at other papers now focussed on reporting scandals, he decided to interrupt his work as a photographer: “I stopped photographing for the love of photography”, he said. He withdrew to the countryside and returned to studying philosophy, historic research and publishing projects for the Carabinieri. His archive, consisting of over 250,000 photos, would remain perfectly preserved in a cellar. Here his daughter Silvia found it by chance twenty-odd years ago and brought to light the extraordinary interpretation of an era which Di Paolo provided, one of the most important “discoveries” of recent years. In an historic moment in which in Italy too an interpretation was spreading of reality defined as “humanist” from the French tradition, Di Paolo found his own different and refined path. He had the ability to gently step into the world of art, literature, and cinema. He had the natural ability to read the various situations which he captured and to place people in them, while respecting their space in a kind of “circularity” in vision which obliges the reader to read his photographs starting from the subject, to then discover all the elements which make it central and key.

Italy’s Post-War Culture and its Fascist Past Charles L. Leavitt IV, University of Reading Abstract: Scholarship has for decades emphasised the significant continuities in Italian culture and society after Fascism, calling into question the rhetoric of post-war renewal. This essay proposes a reassessment of that rhetoric through the analysis of five key metaphors with which Italian intellectuals represented national recovery after 1945: parenthesis, disease, flood, childhood, and discovery. While the current critical consensus would lead us to expect a cultural conversation characterised by repression and evasion, an analysis of these five post-war metaphors instead reveals both a penetrating re-assessment of Italian culture after Fascism and an earnest adherence to the cause of national re-vitalisation.

  • University of Cambridge Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages
    University of Cambridge Faculty of Modern and Medieval Languages Popular Magazines in Fascist Italy, 1934 – 1943 A dissertation submitted by Manuela Di Franco Sidney Sussex College For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) April 2018 The dissertation examines the field of popular magazines in 1930s Italy, by first examining the broad field of magazine production under Fascism and then undertaking three case studies of individual magazines – L’Avventuroso (1934 – 1943), Omnibus (1937 – 1939), and Grazia (1938 –) – in order to build an in-depth analysis of the production, format and reception of the popular press in this period. In the interwar years, and in particular from 1934 onwards, innovative printing techniques and production methods transformed the periodical press worldwide. The emergence of new forms of illustrated magazines expanded the readership and started a process of standardisation and mass production of periodicals. The dissemination in Italy of the rotocalco, a new product aimed at the masses that was developed in the 1930s, offers a particularly interesting starting point for analysing the development of a modern Italian mass press and culture within the peculiar dynamics of a controlling Fascist regime and the mixed national and international forces that shaped it. Modern Italian magazines developed in dialogue with foreign industries, imitating models from abroad and adapting them to the Italian culture. The development of popular press in the 1930s represented a challenge for the Fascist regime, which approached it both as a threat and an opportunity to shape Italian popular culture. Through the analysis of three case studies, each from a key sector of popular press – comics, general cultural magazines, and women's magazines – and each produced by one of the three main publishing companies in the field – Nerbini, Rizzoli, and Mondadori – the dissertation aims to provide a detailed picture of the development of mass print culture in Italy during Fascism.

  • Mario Pannunzio Leader Liberaldemocratico
    Mario Pannunzio leader liberaldemocratico Relazione al convegno Mario Pannunzio, giornalista e intellettuale liberaldemocratico” promosso dalla “Fondazione Corriere della Sera” e dalla “Associazione Mario Pannunzio”, Milano, 28 novembre 2009 1. Politico, leader e terzaforzista In questa relazione tento di illustrare la tesi secondo cui Mario Pannunzio, nella seconda parte della vita dal 1944 al 1968, operò a tutti gli effetti da politico, quale credibile leader dei liberaldemocratici italiani, la famiglia politica che include tendenze presenti nelle etichette liberale, democratica, repubblicana, socialista liberale e altre ancora, tutte riconducibili alla più generale definizione di “democrazia laica”. Tale interpretazione è frutto anche dello studio delle carte del Fondo Pannunzio depositate all’Archivio storico della Camera dei deputati che gettano una nuova luce sul profilo del personaggio, spesso fin qui appiattito su un’immagine stereotipata. 2. La mancanza di una forza liberaldemocratica Parlare di Pannunzio come leader politico significa dunque inquadrarlo nel problema della mancanza nell’Italia repubblicana di un significativo protagonista liberaldemocratico a fronte delle tre grandi famiglie politiche, la cattolica, la comunista e la fascistoide/populista. Pannunzio, nel venticinquennio del dopoguerra, operò consapevolmente per colmare questo vuoto. La politica sua, certo, aveva dei tratti singolari rispetto alla pratica tradizionale. C’era in lui una forte carica culturale integrata nell’azione politica e uno spiccato senso morale che lo distingueva dagli usuali tatticismi dei leader politici. E’ furono proprio queste due bussole - la culturale e la morale - che lo resero, al tempo stesso, forte e vulnerabile, nei vari tentativi messi in atto per vent’anni. Sono significative le parole del commiato dal “Mondo” del 1966: “Non ci piacciono le mezze verità; non ci piacciono la deferenza e l’unzione per le idee che detestiamo.

  • Il Mondo Di Mario Pannunzio 1
    Il Mondo di Mario Pannunzio 1 Il Mondo di Mario Pannunzio In nome della Libert`ae della Laicit`a Il Mondo. Settimanale di politica e letteratura esce col primo numero il 19 febbraio 1949, al costo di 80 lire, e prosegue le pubblicazioni sino al n. 890, in edicola l’8 marzo 1966. Nel 1953 il sottotitolo muta in Settimanale politico, economico e letterario. La rivista viene stampata a Roma in rotocalco, con una foliazione di 16 pagine, ma a volte anche in 12 o 24 pagine, di formato 50x35 cm. L’immagine di testata raffigura il globo terracqueo fra i simboli delle arti e viene incisa dal pittore e disegnatore Mino Maccari, con lumeggiature operate da Ennio Flaiano. Sotto il profilo grafico il settimanale presenta un’eleganza tutta longanesiana, ma emergono un rigore e uno stile che superano il giornalismo di Longanesi. Fondatore e direttore `eMario Pannunzio che richiama a s´eil gruppo originario diRisorgimento liberale, da lui diretto dal 1944 al 1947, arricchito da tante voci autorevoli di diversa provenienza. Il Mondo diviene cos`ıuna palestra di discussione e di elaborazione teorica fatta di rigore morale senza compromessi, un punto di riferimento per le forze di estrazione laica e liberaldemocratica e una coscienza critica contro ogni forma totalitaria e autoritaria. Nei suoi diciotto anni di vita la testata sostiene una costante linea di impegno civile e di totale indipendenza dal potere economico e politico. Nato dall’incontro della cultura crociana con quella salveminiana ed einaudiana, Il Mondo catalizza al suo interno la nascita di un vero, grande circolo di idee e di vita politica e letteraria che si pu`odire unico nell’Italia di quegli anni.
