DUCHAMP – RE-MADE IN ITALY

DUCHAMP_ENG

The G.N.A.M. National Gallery of Modern Art is presenting an exhibit that focuses upon important works by Marcel Duchamp, many of which provoked a scandal, that are a part of Arturo Schwarz’s legacy. The exhibit is curated by Stefano Cecchetto, Giovanna Coltelli and Marcella Cossu with outfitting designed by Alessandro Maria Liguori. The show is developed through seven halls displaying the work of Marcel Duchamp in connection with the encounters he made and exhibits which took place during the 1960s in Italy. His renowned Readymades are at the core of the exhibition. These replicas were created by Duchamp in accord with Arturo Schwarz in 1964 – 1965 and donated to Rome’s National Gallery of Modern Art in 1998. Lastly, a large portion of the art show is dedicated to the influence Duchamp had on the art scene in Italy and the encounters between him and fellow artists during his many visits.

ROBERT CAPA IN ITALY 1943 – 1944

ROBERT-CAPA-IN-ITALIA-1943_ENG

The Museo di Roma has brought this very important Robert Capa exhibition into being. The renowned Hungarian photographer is considered by some as the father of photojournalism. Although never a soldier himself, Capa lived most of his life on battlefields capturing five of the world’s major conflicts: the Spanish Civil War, the Sino-Japanese War, World War II, the 1948 Arab-Israeli War and the First Indochina War. New exhibit space dedicated specifically to temporary art shows will be used for the occasion. The 78 photographs on display testify to the way Capa’s lens illustrates the wars which common people were subjected to. Small towns from all over the world with the tragic kinship of having been reduced to rubble; soldiers and civilians alike were victims of the same carnage.

IL-TESORO-DI-NAPOLI_ENG

Masterpieces from the Museum of Saint Januarius is an exhibit that displays a collection of some of the most magnificent donations to the Saint over the past seven centuries. For the first time outside of the city of Naples visitors can admire works of art donated by popes, emperors, European kings and the most devout Neapolitan citizens. These creations are of the greatest artistic value: they were made with an enormous amount of precious gems by some of history’s most illustrious goldsmiths such as the 17th century master Michele Dato, creator of the splendid Necklace of San Januarius, and Matteo Treglia’s Miter with its ornate diamonds, emeralds and rubies; both of these pieces, along with many other masterpieces, will be on display for this extraordinary exhibit in Rome’s Palazzo Sciarra.

CEZANNE E GLI ARTISTI ITALIANI DEL XX SECOLO

CEZANNE-E-GLI-ARTISTI-ITALIANI-DEL-XX-SECOLO_ENG 

This extraordinary exhibit at Rome’s Complesso del Vittoriano presents a direct comparison between the works of Cézanne and those of some of the most important Italian artists of the 20th century. Works on display include those by Umberto Boccioni – who saw the message of the French artist as an essential catalyst towards an urgent need for change – and Giorgio Morandi, whose similarities with Cézanne include his choice to themes. Also on exhibit are works by post-war artists  such as Afro, Scialoja, Corpora, Morlotti and Pirandello, all of whom were influenced by the eclectic idiom chosen by Cézanne in his later works. They explored abstract stylemes – known as “abstract-concrete” art. The catalogue was created by Maria Teresa Benedetti and Alain Tapié. Cézanne formed a bridge between late 19th century Impressionism and the early 20th century’s new line of artistic exploration, Cubism.
