Giorgio de Chirico

This is the most comprehensive volume probing the life and work of the modern art icon Giorgio de Chirico. Giorgio de Chirico was one of the most controversial and consequential artists of the twentieth century—a key member of the Paris avant-garde, he was a major influence on other artists, especially the nascent surrealists. His repertoire of motifs—empty arcades, elongated shadows, mannequins, trains—created images of forlorn emptiness that became iconic. Artists inspired by de Chirico’s early work include Yves Tanguy, Pablo Picasso, Max Ernst, Salvador Dalí, and René Magritte. His influence also extended beyond painting and included writers and poets Guillaume Apollinaire, Andr...

Josef Albers (1888-1976) è uno dei massimi esponenti dell'astrattismo geometrico del Novecento. Grazie all'attività artistica condotta al Bauhaus e grazie al ruolo di insegnante, che rivestì allo stesso Bauhaus, e poi in America, presso il Black Mountain College e presso la scuola d'arte della Yale University, di cui fu direttore, Josef Albers ha potuto esercitare una straordinaria influenza verso un'intera generazione di artisti.

The editorial is followed by Fabio Benzi's article, which tracks down influence on young de Chirico of the vibrant cultural milieu of the Greek capital, especially for his reading of Nietzsche.

De Chirico. Ediz. inglese

  • Categories: Art

Greek-born Italian painter, Giorgio De Chirico (1888-1978) was hugely influential in the early years of the Surrealist movement. His paintings during the teens in Paris, where he moved in 1911, caused such a stir that such important figures as Picasso and Paul Eluard immediately praised them. This phase of his work, which he later termed pittura metafisica (metaphysical painting) was marked by dramatic compositions involving sharp perspective, striking shadows, geometrical planes, voids of space, and a general feeling of anxiety and loneliness; the sense of absurdity evoked by the mannequin-like figures in almost nightmarish landscapes seemed to suggest a Freudian expression of the unconscious. After 1930, De Chirico turned to a more classical style of painting and continued in the same vein for the rest of his career; his later work was widely criticized, especially by the Surrealists who had so admired his early paintings.
