Tornabuoni #arte is delighted to present ‘Arte moderna e contemporanea. Antologia scelta 2022’, its annual appointment that presents a group #show - held at #tornabuoniarte Florentine and Milanese galleries - accompanied by a catalogue. The detailed selection of works shown highlights the expertise that the gallery has developed over the years.
The exhibition will open to the public on Friday, December 3rd in Florence (Lungarno Benvenuto Cellini 3) and Thursday, December 16th in Milan (Via Fatebenefratelli, 36).
Thanks to the dedication of Roberto Casamonti, founder of the gallery, over the years #tornabuoniarte has been able to develop an important cultural network both in Italy and abroad. This comprehends public and private institutions and allows #tornabuoniarte to offer an international program enriched by longstanding collaborations with art critics, curators and collectors. The latter aspect reflects the gallery’s mission in placing itself not only as a private gallery but also as a public place dedicated to the promotion of culture. The 2022 Antologia scelta catalogue is introduced by a text entitled ‘Art’s evolutionary line’ written by art historian Sonia Zampini. Starting from a nineteenth-century painting by Giovanni Fattori to a 2021 video by Fabrizio Plessi, as Zampini points out, “the annual catalogue is intended as a wide-ranging retrospective on the multiplicity of artistic declarations, movements and purposes that outlined founding steps in art history”.
The #show ‘Arte moderna e contemporanea. Antologia scelta 2022’ held in Florence includes more than fifty works divided into three main sections.
On the first floor of the gallery is displayed a selection of works dedicated to the great masters of figurative Italian art from the first half of the 20th century, such as Plinio Nomellini. His work ‘Pastore con gregge di pecore’ (1900-1910) is characterized by a vibrant atmosphere and exemplifies the painter’s attention to both nature and representation of social issues. In these same years, the artist decided to settle permanently in Versilia, in Torre del Lago, where he met Giacomo Puccini and Giovanni Pascoli and started to explore Symbolism.
