GIACOMELLI | BURRI. FOTOGRAFIA E IMMAGINARIO MATERICO
50,00€
CURATED BY: Alessandro Sarteanesi
TEXTS BY: Bruno Corà, Aldo Iori, Marco Pierini, Alessandro Sarteanesi
Il volume è il risultato di una ricerca inedita sulla relazione tra la fotografia di Mario Giacomelli, uno dei più importanti fotografi del Novecento, e Alberto Burri. Attraverso il ritrovamento di opere e documenti inediti dagli archivi Fondazione Palazzo Albizzini Collezione Burri, Giacomelli e Sarteanesi, è stato possibile ricostruire non solo le vicende degli incontri e gli scambi di amicizia ma anche un’affinità stilistica ed etica rintracciabile nelle loro opere.
Il tema del paesaggio e alcune specifiche serie di Giacomelli – come Presa di coscienza sulla natura, Storie di Terra o Motivo suggerito dal taglio dell’albero – ritrovano sintonie formali in alcuni Sacchi, Combustioni, Cretti e Cellotex di Burri, in una rielaborazione del reale che appare convenzionalmente astratta ma non per questo meno afferente all’uomo e alla sua condizione.
Il libro accompagna la mostra al MAXXI di Roma, alla Fondazione Palazzo Albizzini Collezione Burri a Città di Castello, e a Palazzo del Duca a Senigallia (2021).

BRIAN ENO. REFLECTED
TEXTS BY: Arian Eno, Tom Phillips, Marco Pierini
«What I think we are doing when we find pleasure in sex, drugs, art and religion is we are rehearsing our ability to surrender. So, this brings us, having taken a very long way round, to why I think this is what I would like to see in a church now. If you try to imagine what the effect of those pieces of work, the works by Beato Angelico, Perugino, Piero della Francesca, the effect those works must have had on the 15th or 16th century eye: that is what I’m trying to recreate. I should be humbler than I am, but I’m trying to com- pete with them in 21st century terms. I’m trying to say “this is what I think should be in churches now”» (B. Eno)

EMILIO SCANAVINO. GENESI DELLE FORME / THE ORIGIN OF SHAPES
Texts by: Cristina Casero, Elisabetta Longari
Curated by: Cristina Casero, Elisabetta Longari
‘I like taking pictures. But I'm not looking for beautiful images, I like going around and portray nature’s skeleton: certain grooves, certain furrows that the centuries have dug into the mountains. The debris that accumulates in the places where our industrial civilisation collects its waste tells me incredible things.’

«I felt laid bare when Giuseppe Panza entered my studio because he looked at my paintings so closely and as such length. And in a way, it might seem absurd to spend so much time and intensity looking at a monochrome painting. All of this was very powerful.» (Sean Shanahan)
