591 For years I have been wondering, waiting for the metro, who did this. A poor work of art unknown, conceptual art without preconceptions, an emulation of Mimmo Rotella confused with Alberto Burri passing through Enrico Baj or simply nobody rents this advertising space? Photo two, model material brought by students... But it's pretty much Peter Savillle's cover for New Order's Brotherhood. Just want, art is everywhere! #mimmorotella #albertoburri #enricobaj #unknownartist #petersaville #neworder #neworderofficial #metrostation #maquette #architecturestudents #commuter #commuterstories @designpetersaville @petersavillearchive @neworderofficial #artepovera #conceptualart #advertising (presso Sesto 1º Maggio FS) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cos98ZKr7BW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Arte Povera

Italian phrase for “Poor art” or “Impoverished”. It is one of the most significant influential avant-garde movements to emerge in Southern Europe in the 1960s.

Artists used literally poor and cheap materials that they repurposed for their practice. They used common place materials that evoked a pre-industrial age. Such as earth, rocks, clothing, paper and rope.

Artists subtly critiqued the industrialisation and mechanisation of Italy at the time. They challenged to establish notions of value and property. Artists believed that modernity threatened to erase collective memory and tradition and they opposed the technological pro occupation of American Minimalism.

Artists presented absurd, jaring and comical juxtapositions of the old and the new and of the highly processed and pre industrial. Artists evoked some of the effects of modernism and its tendency to destroy experiences of locality and memory as it pushed ever forwards into the future.

Arte povera is most related to ‘Assemblage’, which is an international trend using similar materials. They both marked a reaction against the abstract painting that was perceived as dominating art in this period.

Arte Povera proposed an artistic practice that was much more interested in materiality and physicality and borrowed forms and materials from everyday life.

Artists who contributed to Arte Povera:

Alberto Burri

Antoni Tapies 

Anselm Kiefer

Alberto Burri (Italian, 1915-1995), Cretto bianco [White Crack], 1958. Mixed media, 38.5 x 52 cm

“The present work is a very early example of the series, and is only one of five Cretti produced in 1958, the same year that Burri first traveled to Death Valley. Each Cretto came into being through a delicate balance of chance and control. Using a palette knife or spatula, Burri layered a Celotex support with a mixture of kaolin, resin, zinc white pigment, and polyvinyl acetate, which cracks as it dries. Depending on the density of its application, the impasto admixture could take a week or more to settle. Over this period, Burri modeled the still pliant paint with his hands, scored it with sharp tools, and arrested its furrows with Vinavil glue. Loosely guided by the artist, the painting assumed a life of its own, enacting a temporal drama of fracture and decay through its visceral materiality. Confronted with a Cretto’s scarified surface, the viewer registers rupture as a tactile reality.” (source)

„Andammo a Gibellina con l’architetto Zanmatti, il quale era stato incaricato dal sindaco di occuparsi della cosa. Quando andai a visitare il posto, in Sicilia, il paese nuovo era stato quasi ultimato ed era pieno di opere. Qui non ci faccio niente di sicuro, dissi subito, andiamo a vedere dove sorgeva il vecchio paese. Era quasi a venti chilometri. Ne rimasi veramente colpito. Mi veniva quasi da piangere e subito mi venne l’idea: ecco, io qui sento che potrei fare qualcosa. Io farei così: compattiamo le macerie che tanto sono un problema per tutti, le armiamo per bene, e con il cemento facciamo un immenso cretto bianco, così che resti perenne ricordo di quest’avvenimento.“ Alberto Burri #gibellina #gibellinavecchia #crettodiburri #albertoburri #arte #artecontemporanea #sicilia #sicily #photo #picoftheday #photographylovers #black #bellezza #blackandwhite #life #lifestyle #instagram #instagood #italy #art (presso Cretto di Burri - Gibellina)
