Book Description
Founded in Rome in February 1954 by Plinio De Martiis, the Galleria La Tartaruga, from the moment it opened, took on an important role in the development of avant-garde Italian art. After hosting, over the course of the 1950s, a number of important exhibitions, including the first European solo shows of Franz Kline and Cy Twombly, in the early 1960s it was one of the first Italian exhibition venues to foster relations with the United States and the first to promote Pop Art in the Rome, becoming a point of reference for the group of young artists who were to become the members of so-called 'Italia Pop, ' better known as the 'Scuola di Piazza del Popolo': Franco Angeli, Mario Ceroli, Tano Festa, Giosetta Fioroni, Renato Mambor, Mario Schifano, and Cesare Tacchi. This book is the first analytical study of the gallery's activity, examining the crucial years from 1954 to 1968, at the same time providing an accurate chronological reconstruction of all of the exhibition and publishing activities that took place until the death of the gallerist in 2004. Based on a meticulous investigation of the gallery archive, this book provides data, extracts of publications, and mostly unpublished photographic material. Ilaria Bernardi (1985) is a curator and has a Ph.D. in art history. In her previous collaborations she has worked, among others, with Germano Celant and, at the Castello di Rivoli Museo d'Arte Contemporanea, with Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev.

Book Description
This volume explores how Italian institutions, dealers, critics, and artists constructed a modern national identity for Italy by exporting – literally and figuratively – contemporary art to the United States in key moments between 1929 and 1969. From artist Fortunato Depero opening his Futurist House in New York City to critic Germano Celant launching Arte Povera in the United States, Raffaele Bedarida examines the thick web of individuals and cultural environments beyond the two more canonical movements that shaped this project. By interrogating standard narratives of Italian Fascist propaganda on the one hand and American Cold War imperialism on the other, this book establishes a more nuanced transnational approach. The central thesis is that, beyond the immediate aims of political propaganda and conquering a new market for Italian art, these art exhibitions, publications, and the critical discourse aimed at American audiences all reflected back on their makers: they forced and helped Italians define their own modernity in relation to the world’s new dominant cultural and economic power. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, social history, exhibition history, and Italian studies.

Book Description
**A New York Times Editors Choice** "The most substantive biography of the artist to date...propulsive, positive and persuasive."—Holland Cotter, New York Times Book Review **PEN / Jacqueline Bograd Weld Award for Biography Finalist** **A Marfield Prize Finalist** Cy Twombly was a man obsessed with myth and history—including his own. Shuttling between stunning homes in Italy and the United States where he perfected his room-size canvases, he managed his public image carefully and rarely gave interviews. Upon first seeing Twombly’s remarkable paintings, writer Joshua Rivkin became obsessed himself with the mysterious artist, and began chasing every lead, big or small—anything that might illuminate those works, or who Twombly really was. Now, after unprecedented archival research and years of interviews, Rivkin has reconstructed Twombly’s life, from his time at the legendary Black Mountain College to his canonization in a 1994 MoMA retrospective; from his heady explorations of Rome in the 1950s with Robert Rauschenberg to the ongoing efforts to shape his legacy after his death. Including previously unpublished photographs, Chalk presents a more personal and searching type of biography than we’ve ever encountered, and brings to life a more complex Twombly than we’ve ever known.
