Add to basketPaperback. This volume is the catalogue of the exhibition Depero. Fantastical Ride, held in the historic rooms of the Museum of Palazzo Medici Riccardi. Curated by Sergio Risaliti with Eva Francioli, the catalogue presents the work of Fortunato Depero, a multifaceted artist who was able to combine the popular element with a fervid figurative imagination. Starting with Neighing at Speed, a typically Futurist painting by Depero, the catalogue focuses on some of the most fascinating themes of Depero's production from the myth of progress and speed, to the small theatres populated by ultra-modern puppets, to the rich production of tapestries, clothing narrated through works from private collections and from the MART in Trento and Rovereto. It also includes a number of works that Depero made during a stay in New York in 1930. Text in English and Italian.
