Contemporary arts of the XX and XXI century
The exhibition focuses on the work of artists who have developed their artistic language through calligraphy and alphabetic sign. A study that takes its origin from the early XX century avant-garde and, in the wake of a renewed continuity, arrives to the contemporary experience. Restoring the signifier to its signified opens a deeper channel of communication, possibly more substantial and intimate than that used by mass media, providing redundant information and often devoid of content. Cy Twombly, Alighiero Boetti, Carla Accardi, Gastone Novelli, are some of the artists who have effectively illustrated the iconic power of sign and speech.
