    EUGENIO MICCINI   close up Catalog
    opere da leggere / poesie da guardare
    curated by Nicola Nuti
    15 March – 6 April 2019

    Fornaciai Art Gallery and Galleria Il Ponte present a joint exhibition dedicated to Eugenio Miccini, writer, poet and artist, whose work gave rise to the Visual Poetry movement, followed in Italy during the Sixties and Seventies by artist such as Lamberto Pignotti, Lucia Marcucci, Sylvano Bussotti, Luciano Ori, Kelly La Rocca and with a different approach, Giuseppe Chiari.

    A selection of twenty-four works will be exhibited in the two Florentine galleries.
    Il Ponte presents, simultaneously with the exhibition dedicated to Hidetoshi Nagasawa, the works from the Sixties: the beginnings of Miccini’s artistic career, and of his studies on communication theory through the realization of bricolage in which elements, signs and objects, the disparate, mix together to form a new language; while Fornaciai Art Gallery exhibits those of the following years: the encounter between craftsmanship, literature and media language, in which “the word takes on image value and the alphabetic elements become symbols, sometimes with linguistic meaning, or a mere graphic sign”.
    The exhibition then traces the “stories” of Miccini from 1963 to 1989, with newspaper clippings, images, phrases, objects, photographs that together illustrate the critical vision of a period in which advertising language evolved through the efforts of Miccini and the Gruppo ’70, who took the subject and modified it by mixing high and low language and linking it with the classical culture intrinsic to Miccini himself.
