Book Description
Italian Drawing of the 20th Century brings together works from the Ramo Collection, the only collection in the world exclusively dedicated to drawing in Italy during the 20th century, from the great masters to lesser-known figures. The collection--and this book--presents drawing in Italy as a fundamental part of 20th-century art history. Including a wide range of techniques on paper (from watercolor to collage, crayon to felt-tip pen), this volume presents drawing as the skeleton of 20th-century art because it represents the first visualization of an idea. As an essential early step in art making, drawing is an expressive means shared by artists in working in different mediums, opening up to realization in a wide range of art practices. Italian Drawing of the 20th Century presents a specific national history for this unique, wide-ranging medium of creative thought. Among the artists featured are Balla, Baruchello, Boccioni, Crippa, de Chirico, Depero, Fabro, Fontana, Kounellis, Licini, Manzoni, Melotti, Morandi, Munari, Penone, Pistoletto, Rama, Rosso, Rotella and Severini.

Book Description
Bruno Munari (1907-1998) played a pioneering role in the evolution of twentieth-century art and design, his work exerting an influence that stretched far beyond the borders of Italy. Munari described the roots of his work as his 'Futurist past', but his influences were extremely varied, also reflecting the aesthetics and sensibilities of Constructivism, Dada and Surrealism. This exhibition at the Estorick collection in London explores Munari's artistic research between 1927 and 1950, spanning the artist's Futurist phase and early investigation of the possibilities of kinetic sculpture, the immediate post-war years during which he became a leading figure of abstract painting and his subsequent experiments with projected light and installation-based work. 0Exhibition: Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art, London, UK (19.9.-23.12.2012).

Book Description
Giacomo Balla (1871-1958) is one of the undisputed masters of modern Italian art. An important exponent of the Divisionist style, he went on to become one of the five signatories of Futurism?s initial painting manifestos of 1910 and was a pioneering figure of European Modernism, being one of the first artists to aim at the transformation of everyday life in accordance with avant-garde aesthetic.0This volume of important and rarely-seen from the Fondazione Biagiotti Cigna? one of the largest collections of Balla?s works anywhere in the world? has been curated by Fabio Benzi, a leading authority on the artist. It spans Balla?s entire career, comprising both figurative and abstract paintings and drawings, as well as fashion-related designs and examples of applied art.00Exhibition: Estorick collection, London, UK (05.04. - 25.06.2017).

Book Description
Best known for his iconic Woolmark logo, Franco Grignani (1908-1999) was an influential artist and graphic designer whose dazzling works anticipated Op Art.0Briefly affiliated with the Futurist movement as a young painter, he subsequently adopted a geometric abstract style that revealed an increasing fascination with optical effects and perceptual processes. From the late 1940s onward, Grignani's works took inspiration from Gestalt Psychology, and were characterized by their use of dynamic forms and 'virtual' shapes that seem to warp out of, and recede back into, the surfaces of his compositions.0Initially, Grignani's experimental approach was not understood by the artistic establishment of the day, and he worked largely in isolation. Yet he achieved great success as a graphic designer, creating striking advertising campaigns for a variety of high-profile companies including Pirelli, Fiat and Alfieri & Lacroix, as well as producing covers for a series of science fiction novels published by Penguin during the late 1960s.00Exhibition: Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art, London, UK (05.07.-10.09.2017).

Book Description
The booklet was a project Bomberg embarked upon in time he could spare from his work as an official war artist. The lithographs were executed on zinc plates, the original designs for them being drawings from 1914, done at a time when Bomberg was strongly influenced by Diaghilev's designs for the Ballet Russes. One hundred copies of the booklet were handprinted by Bomberg, with the covers sewn on by his wife Alice. The imprint of Henderson's (a bookshop in Charing Cross Road) was probably added after Bomberg was prevented from selling the booklets himself at the Alhambra Theatre, where Diaghilev's company was performing in 1919. ( Information from : David Bomberg / [by] Richard Cork (New Haven ; London : Yale University Press, 1987)).

February 21-September 1, 2014 The first comprehensive overview of Italian Futurism to be presented in the United States, this multidisciplinary exhibition examines the historical sweep of the movement from its inception with F.T. Marinetti's Futurist manifesto in 1909 through its demise at the end of World War II. Presenting over 300 works executed between 1909 and 1944, the chronological exhibition encompasses not only painting and sculpture, but also architecture, design, ceramics, fashion, film, photography, advertising, free-form poetry, publications, music, theater, and performance. To convey the myriad artistic languages employed by the Futurists as they evolved over a 35-year period, the exhibition integrates multiple disciplines in each section. Italian Futurism is organized by Vivien Greene, Curator, 19th- and Early 20th-Century Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. In addition, a distinguished international advisory committee has been assembled to provide expertise and guidance.
