Domenico Gnoli

Abstract

"The exhibition is presented as a retrospective that gathers over 100 works, created by Domenico Gnoli (Rome, 1933 - New York, 1970) from 1949 to 1969, as well as an equal number of his drawings. A chronological and documentary section, including historical materials, photographs and other supports, contributes to trace Gnoli's life and artistic career more than fifty years after his death. The research behind the project conceived by Germano Celant was developed in collaboration with the artist's archives in Rome and Mallorca, which preserve Gnoli's personal and professional heritage."--
