NEL SELVAGGIO MONDO DEGLI SCRITTORI. ROBERTO NISTRI

NEL-SELVAGGIO-MONDO-DEGLI-SCRITTORI_ENG

“Nel selvaggio mondo degli scrittori” (In the Wild World of Writers) is a fascinating exhibit dedicated to Roman photographer Roberto Nistri. The photographs tell of the intimate sides of ninety-nine protagonists of Italian fiction. Men and women whose iconography is too often stereotyped, conventional and almost taken by force for use by editorial marketing. Nistri, on the other hand, shows them to us in their “natural habitat” and as far away as possible from the glacial composure of a classic authorial portrait. The author created brief captions to accompany his shots. His creativity is entrusted with the task of explaining his choice of shooting location – be it a geographic or psychological one.

The approximately fifty works on display at Rome’s Palazzo Barberini include polyptyches, large altarpieces, small devotional paintings, gold-based panels and a series of individual frescoes along with other works for comparison and documentary evidence. All of this offers visitors a journey into the Renaissance of Antoniazzo Romano and his abundant workshop in the first monographic exhibition dedicated to the Renaissance painter. The event is promoted and presented by the Soprintendenza Council for the Arts and is curated by Anna Cavallaro and Stefano Petrocchi. The exhibit is being hosted in the halls of the Palazzo dedicated specifically to temporary art shows. The wealth of art to be admired was made possible thanks to the generosity of public and private museums. Some of the most prestigious works selected for the exhibit are on loan from important churches in Rome and in the Lazio region.

GIOSETTA FIORONI. L’ARGENTO

GIOSETTA-FIORONI_ENG

This exhibit hosted at Rome’s GNAM National Gallery of Modern Art narrates the story of one of Italy’s most prominent post-war artists: Giosetta Fioroni. The two masters who most influenced her work are Giuseppe Capogrossi and Toti Scialoja. The show focuses upon the career of this great artist from the very beginning to the 1970s. Over eighty drawings, paintings, films, theatre models and illustrations are on display along with a selection of ceramic works which had not been included in Drawing Center’s Spring Presentation. Some of these ceramic pieces were created specifically for this exhibition. Fioroni’s work centres around the idiom of Pop Art as can be seen by her choice of urban and media icons. Many of the portraits imprinted by the artist on canvas or paper are taken from photographs, newspapers or magazines and are embellished through her use of aluminium, silver and polish.
