Item Number: 118118 Title: GILLO DORFLES : Opere recenti Author: Sansone, Luigi Price: Not Available ISBN: 9788837089887 Description: Milano: Electa, 2012. 21cm., pbk., 160pp. illus., many in color. Italian text. Exhibition held at MART, Rovereto. Summary: Gillo Dorfles, born in Trieste in 1910, is one of Italy's most important artists and intellectuals from the post-war period to the present day. The exhibition touches on the crucial moments in his artistic development, which began in the 1930s under the influence of expressionism and surrealism. The themes of childhood and of painting as an ineluctable interior need are both forcefully reiterated in the exhibition at the Mart which hosts approximately fifty recent works (1987-2011) by this versatile artist and intellectual from Trieste. Intended as a presentation of his vast oeuvre, the works chosen represent the joy of being able to express the lyricism of a rich, mysterious inner life and "privilege, together with stimuli stemming from new technologies, large dimensions, looking ahead to possible developments in three dimensions, on one side and the other, to mega-projections on buildings".
