Ultramarine – Michele Lamassa
Ultramarine - Michele Lamassa
At Expo Milano 2015, Lamassa has created a project to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the explosion of the first atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. To remember the publication of the article on Il Corriere della Sera on August 8, 1945 reporting the event, the curator and director of Il Rivellino Arminio Sciolli and the journalist Carlo Baroni decided to invite Michele Lamassa to the weekly cultural program of CasaCorriere. This allowed the visitors to appreciate an artistic technique that has apparently become obsolete: the artist of Italian origins, is famous on the international artistic scene for his works inspired by the fresco and “detachment” painting technique, which Michele Lamassa used to create a vibrant and communicative work that will be exhibited for the entire week. Michele Lamassa’s language is an introspective expression of the artistic perception of space, an elaborated and complex art to be performed slowly that allows for a conversation between the material component of lime, the colors of natural pigments and the human sensations.

Mario Dondero et le nouveau roman
Forse nessun altro documento o testimonianza ha reso intelligibile il Nouveau Roman più della famosa foto scattata da Mario Dondero nel 1959. Essa ritrae gli scrittori di quello che non fu mai un vero e proprio movimento letterario durante una pausa ai margini di un incontro. Come un lampo quella foto che rende visibile l’esistenza di una comunanza o convergenza fra scrittori tanto diversi. In questo senso essa ha fatto e continua a fare l’evento Nouveau Roman.
Prendendo lo spunto da un testo del filosofo Giorgio Agamben, Raffaele Scolari presenterà un tentativo di chiarire il senso di quella “flanerie (o deriva) fotografica” che caratterizza l’opera del grande fotografo italiano.

Leonardo da Vinci, Il Rivellino
Leonardo da Vinci, Il Rivellino
Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci, (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519), was an Italian polymath: painter, sculptor, architect, musician, scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist and writer. Leonardo has often been described as the archetype of the Renaissance man, a man whose unquenchable curiosity was equaled only by his powers of invention. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived. According to art historian Helen Gardner, the scope and depth of his interests were without precedent and “his mind and personality seem to us superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote”. Marco Rosci points out, however, that while there is much speculation about Leonardo, his vision of the world is essentially logical rather than mysterious, and that the empirical methods he employed were unusual for his time.
