The exhibition dedicated to Italo Valenti (1912-1995) answers to the purpose of reading the original structure of the body of the artist\u2019s work: in fact, in the different phases of his production, which lasted for more than fifty years, Valenti established a rich system of brand new correspondences passing from the youthful figurations to the lyrical abstraction of his maturity.
\nThe first chapter (1930-1950) refers to the years starting from his education at Brera\u2019s Academy in Milan under Aldo Carpi, to the experience \u201cCorrente\u201d: Valenti\u2019s painting is different for his skill of interpreting dreams and visions, fairy-tales painted according to Carpi\u2019s inventive world. The paintings close to \u201cCorrente\u201d reflect lyrically the civil commitment linked to the representation of reality.
\nThe second chapter, temporary and limited to 1950s, is linked to \u201cchaos\u201d, which is also the title of the group of cosmic imagines painted by the artist in the moment in which he leaves the intimate realism of his first pictures. Abstract painting show in an informal language this Valenti\u2019s specific period, linked to Lucrezio\u2019s poetics and represented in Biennali.
\nThe third chapter, which is the most famous and which is linked to the lyrical abstraction, is divided in two moments \u2013 painting and collage \u2013 the languages that the artists meets during the period of Ascona (from 1960 to his death in 1995), where he works in close touch with Arp, Bissier, Magnelli e Nicholson.
\nThis phase corresponds to the intensity of the highest poetics of Valenti\u2019s work: unexpected, it shows a special symmetry with the motives of the Milanese period of his education, reused according to the geometrical solutions that renew the language.
\nThe relationship between the youthful phase of the figuration and the mature one of the abstraction, the central presence of \u201cchaos\u201d and the final dialogue between the languages of painting and of collage are the forces that act in the whole Valenti\u2019s work, symmetrical in the sure construction of correspondences between shape and colours. The exhibition, developed by Matteo Bianchi, is accompanied by a catalogue edited by Pagine d\u2019Arte that goes further on into the poetics and the history of Italo Valenti\u2019s art with the contributes of the developer, of Daniel Abadie, of Elena Pontiggia and of Luigi Cavadin, in addition to Bernard Blatter, Carlo Carena, Dante Isella and Giorgio Orelli\u2019s accounts. The Mario Botta\u2019s display has the purpose of giving to Valenti\u2019s works \u2013 so deep both the small and the big one \u2013 the right legibility.<\/p>\n
