Descripción de la Exposición
This first retrospective exhibition of Alfredo Volpi (1896, Italy–1988, Brazil) outside of Brazil aims to retrace the career of this major artist who poeticized and warmed the bi-dimensional modernist approach to the pictorial space through more than 130 works. These stretch from Volpi’s early oil paintings of the ’30s and ’40s to his later works from the ’50s to the ’70s which introduce a new color palette and new techniques taken from the early Italian Renaissance which he brought back from his travels around Italy. In the last two decades of his career, this unique and independent position led Volpi to be considered a legend among Brazilian modernist artists and collectors.
Curated by Cristiano Raimondi (NMNM), supported by the Instituto Alfredo Volpi, São Paulo.
