GILLO DORFLES. ESSERE NEL TEMPO (A LIFE OF THE TIMES)
This exhibition, curated by Achille Bonito Oliva and with technical coordination and exhibit design by Fulvio Caldarelli and Maurizio Rossi, is the first anthological display that pays homage to the Complete Works of one of the time-honoured fathers of Italian visual culture. His artistic output, critical ideas and concepts as well as his aesthetic theories are all presented. Over 100 works by Gillo Dorfles are featured, some of which on exhibit for the first time: paintings, drawings and graphic art work along with a selection of pottery and jewellery. An unprecedented voyage through time – from his most recent creations (including three previously unreleased paintings produced in the summer of 2015) to the founding of the MAC (Movimento per l’Arte Concreta). Also on display, original documents and historical catalogues of his first exhibitions and his earliest work dating back to the 1930s. A body of work is featured in which the reference points of time tend to dissolve into the synchronization of an extended and ever-evolving present. For the very first time, an exhibition of the works by Dorfles is made complete by two conversant and complementary sections of the display which offer an opportunity to retrace over a century of history with words and images.
