Part 1 During the ten years of artistic direction of the Richard Ginori Company, from 1923 to 1933, Gio Pontin, the most versatile Italian architect and designer of the 20th century, created three hundred and fifty designs and two hundred models for the historic Docile ceramic factories. They were magnificent objects of unparalleled elegance, often unique pieces of great sophistication and at the same time of extreme simplicity. Many of them are now on display...

Part 2 So here he is in front of the mirror, which retracts while masturbating, with an immense phallus in his hands (Eros, 1911). The end of ideal beauty, of the microgenitomorph of the elders, theorized by Polychaetes: sex is painted visually, in its raw reality, exalted and represented according to nature. We are in 1910, at a time when onanism is considered a disease, the cause of dementia, and Freud, who considers it as a primary addiction, refuses to mention it on his teenage son, who is treated by a colleague...

Part 1 Art is always ahead of its time, and that is how Egon Schiele (1890-1918) proved to be our perfect contemporary after a century. Just visit the monographic exhibition in Paris at the Louis Vuitton Foundation, organized by Suzanne Page, Diète Bûchait and Olivier Michelson more than a hundred paintings and drawings, most of them private, on display until January 14, 2019, to realize the prodigy of foresight that Schism expresses in terms of the representation...

At the centre of Katz' s paintings is not the materialistic ecstasy of Pop Art, the static detection of things, but a movement of dematerialization and contours that decontextualizes the image and places it as the only protagonist of the plane. The idea of contouring will come back as a protagonist in the series of cut-outs, where the figures are cut out and supported by self-supporting structures. The background no longer exists. The figure is taken up in the calm of a daily gesture, continues...

Part 1 Alex Katz is one of those artists who question the categories that try to sweep away the undulating flow of art history. Born in New York in 1927, fifteen years after Jackson Pollock and just one year before Andy Carol, he could be considered as the link between two generations of American painting: abstract expressionism and Pop Art, but around eight, in 2019, Katz continues to paint his large enigmatic paintings sixty-three years after the death of the inventor of dumping and thirty-two years after the death of the Pope off Pop...

Part 2 Mollino reproduces the old stone base which contains a larger volume of wood, with a cantilever of about two metres on two opposite sides. Historical and architectural features, the two buildings are separated by a gap, an empty space, where there are ten grey granite mushrooms, 50 cm high (bolero in Valdostano patois), formed by a trapdoor, a hat, and a foot, i.e. a foot, resting on the stone base thanks to the cement thrown into a hollow beam which itself rests on the top of the wall...

Part 1 Carlo Mollino was already fifty-eight years old when his friend Felice Garelli proposed a unique enterprise: to dismantle the Talus hut he owned in Champoluc, a wooden hut from 1664, used as a warehouse and barn in the Val d'amas valley, and move it to the opposite side, behind the Santonna church, to make it a second home. The company is at the centre of a recent study, Carlo Mollino. The art of building in the mountains. Casa Garelli, Champoluc, published...

Part 2 Tympan' oblique approach, which seems to take some pleasure in making the viewer uncomfortable, is documented by Murray Water (2015), an extraordinary triptych commissioned by the Dutch city of Ridderkerk, who wanted a tapestry for his town hall. The artist chooses a subject far removed from what a public administration would like to celebrate the beauty of his city: three shots, taken among so many Polaroids, of the Ridderkerk canals, whose waters are murky...

Part 1 Attention for those who want to visit Lucy Tympan great exhibition at Palazzo Grass if: take advantage of the indispensable guide published by Marc Donna die (you can find it on the site). Read it carefully. Otherwise, you run the risk of leaving the exhibition having lost the most intense moments. This is not the opinion of the writer, Tympani himself makes this suggestion: "The short space between the explanation of a painting and the painting itself represents the only possible perspective in painting"...
