Abstract

Gino Severini est sans doute le plus français des artistes italiens. Pendant un demi siècle, il fut en effet le symbole vivant des échanges artistiques entre l'Italie et la France : "Les villes auxquelles je suis le plus attaché sont Cortonne et Paris. Je suis né physiquement dans la première et intellectuellement autant que spirituellement dans la seconde". Pour présenter l'évolution de cet artiste qui joua un rôle important dans la création artistique de la première moitié du XXe siècle, l'exposition présente différentes étapes de sa carrière : divisionnisme de 1905 à 1910, futurisme de 1911 à 1915, cubisme de 1916 à 1919, retour à la figure de 1920 à 1943.

Abstract

Within a varied contemporary panorama, the exhibition displays a selection of 'design events' of different kinds and of different scales, organised into eight possible actions; eight metamorphoses capable of transforming materials or components into 'artefacts', into active elements of our daily lives and culture.The four categories formulated a hundred and fifty years ago by Gottfried Semper, and doubled in number to bring them up to date with contemporary conditions, are used as a grid to organise the complex structure of the artificial environment; and as the instrument for a possible revision of the axioms and methods of 'modern design', in its constant attempt to adapt them to the problems and aspirations of a complex world.Sempering looks at architecture, landscapes and objects of the last decade crossing the established boundaries of every possible system of the arts, of every division in skills and sectors. Actions such as stacking heavy blocks, connecting light structures, moulding soft materials, engraving fire casings, folding tin sheets, weaving threads, arranging tiles or blowing air can be seen as basic actions capable of inventing unexpected forms by the use of new technologies, but also as the testing of well-established 'customs' of formal traditions in their response to new conditions.
