(by Marzia Apice) From Fulvio Roiter's vision in Venice to Cola dell'Amatrice's Renaissance art in Ascoli Piceno, Federico Seneca's posters in Treviso and Antonio Ratti's fabrics in Rome, the exhibitions over the weekend starting on March 16 will be uniting the contemporary world with a fascination for classical art.
VENICE - About 200 photos, mostly vintage ones, will be showcasing the talent of one of the most important photographers of our time.
On March 16, a large retrospective will open at the
Casa dei Tre Oci on Fulvio Roiter, the first since his death in
2016. It will run through August 26.
The exhibition is divided into nine sections that cover the
photographer's entire life, from the age of neorealism to the
representations of his native city Venice and the tales of his
trips to New Orleans, Belgium, Portugal, Andalusia and Brazil.
TREVISO - From his Belle époque debut to his futuristic
developments and the theatricality of the Bauhaus matrix, the
Museo Nazionale Salce will pay homage to the "father of Baci
Perugina".
The exhibition 'Federico Seneca (1891 - 1976). Segno e Forma
nella Pubblicità' ('Federico Seneca (1891 - 1976). Signs and
Shapes in Advertising') will run from March 17 to September 2.
Posters, drafts in the form of drawings and sculptures, some
of which never before shown to the public, document the creative
development of the artistic director of Perugina and Butoni, one
of the most important Italian graphic designers in the
advertising sector in the past century.
