Forma is a publishing initiative aimed at the diffusion of knowledge of trends and experiences in the fields of art, architecture and photography and, more in general, at the promotion of the most interesting researches on productive and technological aspects related to the transformation of the territory, contemporary lifestyles and homes. The intention of the publishing house is to give a “form” to the expressive undercurrents which run through and animate the current cultural debate and to explore both specific areas of knowledge that are known to the public, and to give greater visibility to those currently marginal intellectual and artistic expressions that are considered, for various reasons, to open new vistas on reality.

To achieve this, Forma avails itself, without any distinction of priority, of all means of communication, both digital by making its publications available on the internet or by means of e-books, and traditional ones, by printing volumes on paper, such as monographs and catalogues of exhibitions and events. Every initiative is characterized by the high quality of the overall product (including images and printing). The publications are distributed in places (specialized bookstores, museum bookshops and exhibition venues) which, in addition to being available on the internet, assure the necessary and indispensable presence in the “sites” where opinions and critic valuations are formed.

ANTINORI WINERY DIARY OF BUILDING A NEW LANDSCAPE

ARCHITECTURE Contemporary Architects

ARCHEA CHINA 20 with an introduction by Z. Fang

by L. Andreini; texts by P. Antinori, M. Casamonti introduction by M. Fuksas

The new Antinori winery project is located in the extraordinary hilly landscape covered with vineyards of Chianti, halfway between Florence and Siena. The customer wanted a building which enhanced the surrounding landscape and territory and bore witness to the cultural and social relevance of the places where wine is made. The conceptual theme of the project has taken the form of 6 a shell that is totally underground, without roofs, walls, streets and parking spaces, following a design which dares to reconcile (a difficult but necessary challenge) the natural and the artificial.

It is precisely the story of this constant research, of the indispensable connection between architecture and landscape, which represents the fulcrum on which the whole volume pivots. Hundreds of photographs by Pietro Savorelli have immortalized years of work on the building site, telling the story of all the phases that have made it possible to realize this extraordinary project. The images, along with numerous technical drawings on every scale, critical and descriptive texts, illustrate the design process which has led to the construction of a new landscape.

33,5×28 cm; 438 pages; ita or eng; bound hardback with cloth cover book

The volume records the experience of Archea Associati in China through 20 illustrated projects of recent years. The collection includes competitions, projects under construction and complete works. It gives an overview on the design and research activity of Archea, ranging from masterplans for entire cities to housing and industrial complexes, to the interior design of single buildings. Charlie Xia’s images, the technical drawings and some text descriptions represent a fundamental instrument for the interpretation and the comprehension of the selected projects. A critical text by Zhenning Fang gives the opportunity to reflect on the peculiarities of contemporary Chinese architecture and on its possible future evolutions.

La definizione del progetto attraverso la composizione di quattro volumi regolari, ai quali vengono sottratti ampi blocchi basamentali, permette all’opera di mettere in relazione pieni e vuoti, regolarità e irregolarità. I volumi costruiti con tecnologie eco-sostenibili e contenenti uffici e spazi di incontro dialogano con quattro ampie piazze pubbliche coperte, unite tra loro da due corridoi centrali a cielo aperto che si incrociano centralmente rendendo fruibile e attraversabile l’area e favorendone l’integrazione con lo spazio naturale esterno.

ADOLFO NATALINI

FOUR SKETCHBOOKS


NEW

FROM SUPERSTUDIO TO NATALINI ARCHITETTI

Founder of Superstudio, initiator of the so-called “Radical Architecture” movement (one of the most important avantgarde movements of the sixties and seventies), Adolfo Natalini describes years of designed and constructed architectural projects through his preferential medium: drawings and sketches. This book contains work from several of his large collection of notebooks retra8 cing almost fifty years of professional career. The order in which the notebooks are published, interspaced and coordinated by means of a long interview, demonstrate the evolution of the initial idea, interpretation and vision of the architectural oeuvre of one of the leaders in Italian architecture.

Book launch: Florence, 12/01/2016 @ SpazioA Firenze

Adolfo Natalini was born in Pistoia in 1941. After his experience as a painter, he graduated in architecture at Florence University in 1966 and founded Superstudio, (with Cristiano Toraldo di Francia, Gian Piero Frassinelli, Roberto and Alessandro Magris). Superstudio’s designs have appeared in publications and exhibitions all over the world and it’s works now form part of collections such as the MoMA in New York, the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, the Deutsche Architekturmuseum in Frankfurt am Main and the Centre Pompidou in Paris. From 1979 onwards Natalini started working on his own and concentrating on his designs for historical towns in Italy and other countries in Europe, looking for the traces left by time on objects and places and proposing a reconciliation between collective and personal memory. He is a full professor at the faculty of architecture of Florence University and an honorary member of the BDA, (Bund Deutscher Architekten), of the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno in Florence and of the Accademia di San Luca.

edited by C. Frisone, with an essay by M. Casamonti photographs by A. Chemollo

Under 50 over 5000 presents a completely new selection of designs made for the fashion sector, analysed and described with the precious contribution of their creator, Antonio Barbieri, an architect but above all a craftsman who has worked with interior design, exhibition areas and commercial spaces for many years. The volume unites and describes, through texts, technical drawings and images by Pietro Savorelli, a selection of works, comprising numerous projects ranging from furniture to lighting design, from concepts for international brands to window displays, to temporary

The LAC (Lugano Arte Cultura) is aspiring to become the most important centre for cultural development in Lugano and Italian Switzerland. Forma Edizioni is dedicating an important volume to this project; the book has been realised with the collaboration of the Ticinese architect, Ivano Gianola, winner of the project’s international competition. The functional layout of this imposing structure which will be inaugurated in September 2015, is composed of a multi-functional space for a new theatre and concert

hall with seating for 1000, a museum, restaurant area, office space and housing. The urban image has a very strong impact, an aspect that had to be considered by the architect. The volume describes the complete history of this work in great detail, through critical and descriptive texts, drawings, sketches, and numerous photographs that make up the highly accurate documentation of this significant construction site.

stores. The main theme of the story about architecture is the outstanding versatility of this design, which is especially evident from an essential trait that characterizes all the projects included in the publications, namely their markedly “crafted” and “customised” nature. The skilful use of the materials and their adaptation to forms and placements, which is often very original, allow Barbieri to create spaces that not only succeed in meeting the commercial requirements, but that also adjust to the all-important present-day restriction, that of the “cost per square meter”. In

fact, the choice of projects presented herein comprises both projects of luxurious interiors where nothing has been spared and others where a remarkable result has been achieved in spite of a limited budget.

NEMBRO PUBLIC LIBRARY

PERFETTI VAN MELLE FACTORY RENOVATION

edited by L. Andreini with texts by F. Bollack and L. Molinari

edited by L. Andreini with texts by P. Meuser and M. Giberti

The library of Nembro designed by the Archea firm between 2002 and 2007 could be defined as a perfect and coherent work, a child of the Italian architectural culture of the postwar years with all the wealth of meanings, complexity and subtle contradiction that this definition entails. The new building appears as a box of glass and steel, shielded from the sun by a curious system of sunscreens 12 in red earthenware, fastened to iron rods.

In 2004 Perfetti van Melle, an important Italian corporation and one of the world’s leading chewing gum and candy manufacturers, decided to expand its first historical plant in Lainate, a few kilometres north of Milan. The idea has been to build a new central warehouse for the stocking of all products made in this section, as well as to organize the management offices by concentrating them in a new office building.

POLI FIERISTICI edited by C. F. Kusch with a contribution by V. Marg

In the past twenty years, nearly all of Europe’s major exhibition centres have been expanded, rebuilt, or constructed in new locations to replace antiquated and inadequate facilities. Significant amounts have been invested in developments that have often brought radical change to entire city districts. This volume offers a selection of the most interesting European exhibition complexes, distinguishing the new centres (as for example the fairs in Milan, Rome and Stuttgart), from those which have been renovated or expanded (such as Vienna, Berlin, Padua and Turin). Each project is described through an illustrative text, completed by images and technical drawings. In the last pages, a practical manual summarizes all the information and the requirements for the correct design of a trade fair.

Con l’assegnazione del primo premio al concorso per la realizzazione della nuova fiera di Rimini, si offre allo studio von Gerkan, Marg und Partner, immediatamente dopo il completamento della Nuova Fiera di Lipsia, un’altra occasione di costruire un polo fieristico completamente ex-novo. Nella patria dell’architettura classica gli architetti attingono al vocabolario della tradizione con un’impostazione generale di tipo assiale e nella definizione dei singoli elementi tipologici di cui è formato il complesso fieristico: padiglioni con volte a botte, cupole, portici, cortili e aule colonnate richiamano le forme archetipiche dell’architettura pur rimanendo sempre il risultato di soluzioni funzionali e costruttive contemporanee. Quattro esili torri d’acciaio e vetro, illuminate di notte con luce blu, sono il simbolo della fiera: ben visibili da lontano fanno riferimento alle torri gentilizie, tipiche delle città medievali dell’Italia centrale. Posizionate davanti all’ingresso principale, accolgono il visitatore, dopo il passaggio sotto la linea ferroviaria, su un vasto piazzale dal quale si accede alla fiera, agli uffici amministrativi nelle due ali laterali e all’anello di accesso carrabile ai padiglioni, nonché alla fermata ferroviaria, realizzata appositamente per la fiera. Il complesso ha una chiara impostazione simmetrica, organizzata secondo lo schema “a doppio pettine”, risultato il più funzionale per l’organizzazione degli spazi espositivi. Dall’ingresso principale, situato sull’asse centrale, si accede ad una sala colonnata e da questa, sui due lati, ai padiglioni espositivi nonché alla cupola centrale, alle sale conferenza, ai ristoranti e agli altri servizi. Due ulteriori ingressi, sui due lati est ed ovest, collegati con vaste aree parcheggio, permettono un’ottimale flessibilità e gestione degli eventi fieristici. Dopo l’ampliamento, con due padiglioni doppi attestati sugli ingressi laterali, sedici ambienti espositivi offrono circa 110.000 mq di superficie per fiere ed eventi che possono svolgersi anche contemporaneamente, grazie ai tre ingressi di accesso separati. I padiglioni

sono illuminati da luce naturale attraverso le facciate laterali vetrate e da lucernari in copertura, ma possono essere oscurate completamente se necessario. Piccoli padiglioni di raccordo e il colonnato assicurano al visitatore un passaggio coperto e continuo attraverso tutta la fiera. I padiglioni, disposti sui due lati dei lunghi colonnati che circondano i vasti specchi d’acqua, sono monoplanari e hanno coperture voltate a botte in legno lamellare. Le volte a losanghe sono un riferimento alle costruzioni degli anni ’20 dell’ingegnere tedesco Friedrich Zollinger e dell’ingegnere italiano Pier Luigi Nervi. Le travi, alte solo 80 cm, hanno tutte le stesse dimensioni formando una rete omogenea di losanghe, che copre il padiglione senza sostegni intermedi per una superficie di 60×100 m. Per la costruzione della cupola, il cuore della fiera, la tecnica costruttiva utilizzata per i padiglioni, è stata ulteriormente affinata. Lo spazio circolare, con un diametro di 30 m alla base, contornato da una doppia fila di colonne, è coperto con una cupola lignea composta da elementi di varie dimensioni che formano una rete a losanghe che si stringe verso il lucernario centrale. Il pavimento in grès è abbassato di alcuni gradini rispetto al livello circostante e riporta, intarsiato, il michelangiolesco motivo della piazza del Campidoglio.

The volume, part of the Contemporary Authors series, provides an opportunity to reflect upon over twenty years of Studio Achea’s activity. After the introduction by François Burkhardt, more than 50 works by the studio are shown, placed in different thematic sections such as landscape, architecture, interiors and furnishing. The broad selection of architecture and projects published is proof of the continual research and experimentation of everevolving themes. Nevertheless, in spite of unceasing interest in variation, specific characteristics of the cultural circles involved in the project emerge,along with the differences. Going beyond the heterogeneity of the submitted proposals, we can catch a glimpse of a clear guideline, which sets Studio Archea in a well-defined position within the landscape of contemporary architecture.

ARCHITECTURE Urban Planning

Rio de Janeiro is currently the centre of the world’s attention due to the events the city and the Brazilian government have succeeded in attracting to the former capital. This is the result of a specific political strategy aimed at consolidating the image of a country undergoing a rapid expansion, which is becoming increasingly irreconcilable with the conspicuous presence of an informal urban fabric in the form of favelas. The volume “Habitar a comunidade / Abitare la comunità” has been created within the context of an attempt to identify new

strategies of intervention in the “informal city” that rather than try to impose external models, aims to define some simple operational principles that may be implemented both by individuals and by administrations through shared and participative projects. The underlying concept is that the communities can only be upgraded through a direct involvement of their own members.

Abbiamo bisogno di riflettere con attenzione sul significato contemporaneo di edificio, su come lo interpretiamo oggi, sul ruolo che svolge nel territorio e nella città contemporanea, sul modo come si perviene alla sua costruzione, sulle condizioni economiche, sociali, politiche, culturali e, infine, sulle generali condizioni produttive e normative. Nello stesso tempo, è necessario capire il ruolo che il progetto di architettura assume nel restituire questa nuova realtà dell’edificio, della città, del territorio, in un rapporto nuovo con le tecniche costruttive e, dunque, con la tecnologia. Un ruolo che oggi può diventare succedaneo, incapace di accettare le sfide dell’innovazione rispetto a uno sviluppo sostenibile. Costretto a essere, solo e soltanto, superficie, trucco, abbellimento, una sorta di utilizzatore finale di tecniche, prodotti e componenti. È invece necessario riscoprire un ruolo che sicuramente appartiene al progetto di architettura, quello di essere l’arte della tecnica: riuscire a coniugare i due principi che stanno alla base, il principio di realtà e il principio ideale. Riassumere su di sé il ruolo culturale egemone, depositario di un sapere e di un saper fare, che è l’essenza del governo di quello che chiamiamo processo edilizio.

MASSARENTE ARCHITETTURA CASA MUSEO GIACOMO MATTEOTTI

PAOLO BELARDI VECCI– ARCHITETTI HOF LAB CASA C CENTRO with an introduction by N. Flora ARTIGIANALE

with an introduction by A. De Poli

with an introduction by D. Barbarelli

The project for the restoration and promotion of the Giacomo Matteotti Home Museum was achieved through a series of complementary interventions directed at preserving, and at the same time, transmitting a period of history, and in some way, providing the symbolic restitution of a place which had been lost for some time.

Images, texts and drawings narrate the restoration project of an industrial zone and its conversion to create a centre for handcrafting activities. The desire of the client, who wished to maintain the original productive vocation of the area, established the criteria for the project, leading the designer to ignore contemporary trends and style to focus on a reading of the local area and its history.

uncritical acceptance of energy production technologies. After about ten years of cooperation and physiological formal experimentation, Benoit Jallon and Umberto Napolitano do appear determined to continue along the path they have staked out for themselves, towards the difficult art of ‘city-making’ which has always been a peculiarity and at the same time an obstinate ambition of the Italian architectonic tradition.” M. Orazi

“...It is precisely the pursuit of a restrained monumentality that represents the common denominator of the early works of LAN. On one side, that enables them to offset the kitschy and mannerist new wing of the Town Hall, or the picturesque style of the Gothic facade of the wholly reinvented church, and on the other to hold the reins on technology and resist – not always successfully – the current rampant ecologist rhetoric which drives especially public clients towards an ideological and thus wholly


The project, which is located in the northern area of Naples, has consisted of the landscaping of the garden and the planning and decoration of the interiors of an apartment on the ground floor of a three floor residential building.

DEP STUDIO CASA N/S with an introduction by D. Rota


DIVERSERIGHESTUDIO CASALOGICA

NEOSTUDIO PIAZZA GARIBALDI


with an introduction by F. Prati

Casalogica, a residential project realized in the Po Valley in the Province of Bologne, is positioned in an empty lot in an urban fabric characterized by the presence of two compact buildings from the early Fifties, which were recovered as part of a unitary project.

Encircled by a still intact belt of Medieval walls, enclosed within an urban plan whose empty spaces still prevail within the densely built sorroundings. Piazza Garibaldi represents an important episode in the redevelopment of the historical centre of Lastra a Signa.

with an introduction by L. Andreini

Light, silence, large openings, and a pure linear structure are the elements that allow the Antonello Colonna Resort & Spa and its guests to absorb the surrounding landscape. The volume describes the 22 building, designed by the architects Francesco Aniello and Francesco Tasca, with an introduction by Laura Andreini.

The new volume presents the two-family residence Casa N/S, built near Bergamo by dep studio. The volume is enriched by an introductory essay by Davide Rota and a presentation about the activities of the office, through bio-bibliographycal notes.

ARIU+VALLINO ARCHITETTI SUMMER HOUSES with an introduction by C. Piva

The volume concerns the new summer houses built in an area in front of the pine wood which defines the skyline of Spotorno. The project is articulated in a number of simple terraced volumes that follow the morphologic development of the surroundings.

TRAVERSOVIGHY CASA CESCHI

LAPO RUFFI EDIFICIO TCR

HOF CITTADELLA DELL’EDILIZIA


with an introduction by V. P. Mosco

with an introduction by M. Marandola

This project is about an old building from the Fifties, which has undergone radical renovations to become a sport center devoted to tennis. The activities of Lapo Ruffi focus on a continuous research on the meanings of way of living, places and materials.

The elegant construction of the Cittadella dell’Edilizia combines urban identity and architectural quality with innovative requirements in terms of energy efficiency and reduced costs, becoming an example and manifesto for architects and builders.

Giovanni Traverso and Paola Vighy develop along a coherent trajectory that leads to the creation of light buildings based on experimentation, prefabrication and a sparing use of resources; they cooperate with local 24 craftsmen and try to find an equilibrium between traditional knowledge and technological optimization.


-SCAPE VILLINO LIBERTY with an introduction by G. Sanguigni

The project deals with the restoration of a building located on the outer edge of the old city centre of Rome and the redesign, in a contemporary key, of the two upper floors of the building, which have been turned into a large private dwelling. The monograph, in a bilingual Italian/English edition, presents a complete description of the work, through technical specifications and an explicative text that, together with photographs and technical drawings, allow an in-depth reading of the project.

On the road, the series dedicated to cities all over the world, in addition to the classical paper format is also available as an App for Ipad and Iphone. Every volume tells the story of a place, explored through its masterpieces of art and architecture. Critical and descriptive texts serve as essential complement to the section with in-depth studies of the selected places of interest. An introductory essay examines the development of the city in urbanistic and territorial terms, providing a historical overview which prepares us for an attentive tour of the city, while the second essay explores its contemporary reality. Each guide is accompanied by a practical map which is folded so as to serve as a removable dust jacket for the book. All the works described inside the book are featured on the back of the map, organized in itineraries. The volume also contains useful information and advice which will make it simpler to visit the city, reducing the time necessary to get around and making it possible to grasp the essence of the place also in a short visit. In addition to all the contents found in the paper volume, the App boasts additional images and is a useful tool for finding one’s way, thanks to the interactive satellite map.

Milan is the first Italian city to be included in the ON THE ROAD travel guide collection. The guide will be published in 2015 to coincide with the World’s Trade Fair in Milan. In recent years, Milan has become a metropolis involved in transformations that are well worthy of interest for the architectural and urbanistic experiments that have been carried out. The complex dialectics between innovation and respect for the existing urban form is the distinctive characteristic of Milan: recovery of downgraded neighbourhoods, redevelopment of decommissioned industrial zones,

technological experimentation, and vertical development are the aspects that mark Milan as a strongly contemporary city. This guide is being launched in answer to a moment of great focus on Milan. As it guides the reader through the wide range of contemporary architectural projects, it emphasises the unique nature of its complex character. The transformations are still underway and for this reason, it is difficult to foresee how a city of such size will manage to redefine its personal equilibrium: but this too is part of the contemporary nature of Milan.

Hamburg is the first “destination” presented by On the road, the series of architecture guides available in a classical paper format or as Ipad App. An introduction featuring three critical treatises outlines the historic and urbanistic profile of the city, allowing the reader to reflect on the evolution of the city and at the same time relate it to the contemporary image of the places. The selection of 75 projects, organized in 5 itineraries, provides a full-immersion in architecture, allowing the reader to dwell on the functional, typological and compositive aspects of the buildings, which are

rendered even more legible by images and technical drawings that supplement the descriptions. The volume also contains useful information and advice which will make it easier and quicker to get around the city, making it possible to capture the essence of the place even in a short visit. This is more than simply an architecture guide: it is also and above all an invitation to travel. In addition to featuring all the contents of the paper format, the App vaunts additional images and information; thanks to the interactive satellite map it is also a valuable aid to finding one’s way.

a hundred architectural works, both historical and contemporary, which are fully illustrated with images, drawings and descriptions, and are marked on the front of the map with a reference number corresponding to the section in the book and the icon on the back of the map. The guide also provides information about museums, libraries, institutions, movie theaters, restaurants and gathering places. The app includes all the information in the printed version, plus additional images and information. You can also customize your itineraries, choosing places to visit and using a satellite interactive map to find out immediately how to get to them, on foot or by public transport.

The last fifteen years of Russian history have profoundly altered Moscow, bringing dramatic changes to the Communist city it was in the eighties. These alterations have increasingly highlighted Moscow’s many contrasts and multiple facets. The guide seeks to do more than just recount and illustrate the city’s architectural history. It strives to be a tool to study the building trends that have shaped it. After a short introduction and the essential information needed to plan a visit, the book includes several essays that give the city’s historical context and then critically consider its possible future developments. The itineraries include about

This guide is aimed at providing a useful instrument for understanding the architectural history of London as well as a means for analysing the new construction trends that are characteristic of the city.

“Karim Rashid is more than a designer, with unbounded popularity expressing the personality of a complete artist. His global creativity, interpretation of a form of sensual, minimalist design that has conquered the market with more than 3000 designs currently in production, is multi-faceted and eccentric, with a more than ordinary ability to perceive the reactions and sensations generated by space and everything that occupies it. Karim Rashid has a dream: using design to change the world.” M. Casamonti

Jan Fabre. Spiritual Guards is the catalogue title for the largescale exhibition promoted by the Municipality of Florence to be held at the Forte di Belvedere, Palazzo Vecchio and Piazza della Signoria between May 14 and October 2016. This is one of the most complex exhibitions by the Flemish artist and theatrical director, Jan Fabre, ever held in Italian public areas. On display will be about a hundred works created between 1978 and 2016: bronze sculptures, scarab shell installations, wax pieces, and documentary films of his performances. Fabre will also present two brand new works created especially for this occasion. The important event is beautifully illustrated in this book with photography by the internationally famous photographer, Attilio Maranzano.

Mappa, 1989, 265,4 × 574 cm

Two of the iconic Mappa [World Maps] works by Alighiero Boetti has been exhibited on the occasion of the international summit conference, “Unity in Diversity”, held in Florence. “Among the artists of the second half of the XXth century, Alighiero Boetti embodies the figure of the nomadic and cosmopolitan artist who repudiated the image of the demiurgic creator in favor of a shared and even delocalized creativity, as in the case of his celebrated Mappa, works the artist conceived in Italy but then had made by embroiderers in Kabul, Afghanistan and in the refugee camps of Peshawar, Pakistan: ‘I consider the embroidered

Mappa project of the greatest beauty. I did nothing for that project, I chose nothing, in the sense that the world is how it is and I didn’t design it; the flags are what they are and I didn’t design them; in other words, I did absolutely nothing; once the basic idea, the concept, emerges, nothing else is left to be chosen.’” This publication provides a full portrayal of the artist, who died before his time, the most significant points of his artistic creation and his life through works by famous photographers, and images lent by the Fondazione Alighiero e Boetti.

This book, presented at the exhibition dedicated to Boetti at the Tornabuoni Art gallery in London is not only an exhibition catalogue but also a vivid portrait of the artist and his personality as well as an insight into his life history. The editor, Laura Cherubini, collected interviews, essays, and contributions from a large number of renowned artists and critics who knew Boetti well. 48 They provide a detailed profile of the artist, his thinking, and his oeuvre. For one special chapter, the editor obtained the precious collaboration of Hans Ulrich Obrist and some unpublished contributions dedicated to a selection of “unfinished projects”: ideas that remained trapped within drawings, prototypes, and sketches, which can be imagined through the narrative of a person who attempted to realise these works with Boetti. As well as his writings, Hans Ulrich Obrist, art curator and director of the Serpentine Gallery in London, also gives an interview talking about his meeting with Boetti and how important and significant this encounter was for his career as curator. This book is further enriched with an unpublished text by Agata Boetti dedicated to the experience of creating Mappe,


SCARPITTA


NEW

edited by L. Sansone and V. Fasan

In this book, Luigi Sansone, the author of the catalogue raisonée on Scarpitta, deals with one of the most fascinating but also least understood aspects of the creative talent of Salvatore Scarpitta. Through photos from archives, it has been possible to present a far deeper reading of these works, especially in the case of the Sal Ardun Special model, whose aesthetic form resembled the cars built by Scarpitta in the 50 sixties; however, unlike the previous models, this was no longer a simulation, because for the first time, the artist also equipped the model with a functioning motor. The essays included in the catalogue describe the artist and his work with great precision, defining the origin and theoretical context from which these works took form, and how they were developed, exhibited and became recognised by a far-reaching public. Since his adolescent years, Salvatore Scarpitta (New York, 1919) was able to develop a special passion for car racing and the racing circuit world. He completed his high school studies in Hollywood in 1936, and decided to travel to Italy to study at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome, where he graduated in 1940. In 1958, for the first time he showed his extroflexed canvases, together with works based on

stretched strips and bands at the Galleria La Tartaruga in Rome. At the beginning of the Sixties, Scarpitta built two racing cars that he showed in 1965 at the Leo Castelli Gallery. In the summer of 1985, in his studio-garage in Baltimore, Maryland, Scarpitta realised a dream that dated back to his teenage years: he built a perfectly authentic racing car (Dirt Track Racer) which, with the help of Leo Castelli, he took to the dirt track circuits of Maryland and Pennsylvania to compete against the leading champions of the period. Between the Fifties and the present time, Scarpitta’s works have been shown in a large number of exhibitions in Europe and in the United States. Scarpitta died in New York on April 10, 2007.

© Serge Domingie

“I've thought about the gazing ball for decades. I've wanted to show the affirmation, generosity, sense of place, and joy of the senses that the gazing ball symbolizes. The Gazing Ball series is based in transcendence. The realization of one's mortality is an abstract thought and from there, one is able to have a concept of the external world, one's family, community, and a vaster dialogue with humankind beyond the present.” J. Koons

Gazing Ball (Barberini Faun), 2013 Plaster and glass, 177.8 × 121.9 × 139.4 cm

The volume has been published on the occasion of the exhibition Jeff Koons in Florence, hosted at Palazzo Vecchio in Piazza della Signoria. Two works, Pluto and Proserpina (from the series Antiquity) and the Barberini Faun (from the series Gazing Ball) will be temporarily shown in two special locations, one public – the Arengario – next to the classical sculptures by Donatello and Michelangelo, and one more private and intimate, inside the Sala dei Gigli of the Palazzo Vecchio. The book is enriched with numerous texts by internationally renowned critics, presenting many points of reflection, in particular on the specifics of this exhibition and in general on the body of work of one of the most important exponents of the Postmodern. A section devoted to biographical and bibliographical matter

53

and a summary of the exhibited works, together with a large collection of images from the Jeff Koons Studio, provides an important overview of the artist’s prolific career.

Human is the catalogue curated by Arabella Natalini and Sergio Risaliti, of the exhibition by one of the world’s most recognised and appreciated contemporary artists, Antony Gormley. Once again the exceptional architecture of the Forte di Belvedere in Florence forms the background to a remarkable exhibition that should not be missed. Over a hundred iron sculptures are arranged in the grounds and building of the Medici fortress and will form an integral part of the monument for several months.

The amazing exhibition is described and narrated in this richly illustrated catalogue containing important art critiques by Andrew Benjamin, Marco Casamonti, Mario Codognato and Sergio Risaliti. A long conversation between Antony Gormley and Arabella Natalini offers an insight into the personality of the artist, his intentions, the way he visually perceives and captures the acoustics of the spaces in which he positions his anthropomorphic figures.

JOHN CURRIN


NEW

PAINTINGS edited by S. Risaliti with an essay by A. Nesi

John Currin is the catalogue title of the exhibition to be held at the Museo Stefano Bardini beginning on June 2016. His ambitious paintings seduce, shock, and surprise at the same time. Currin’s well-mastered technique results from the control and emulation of the composition, graphic rhythm, and refined finishes typical of 16th 56 and 17th century Northern European paintings. His inspiration is drawn from portraits by old masters, pin-up girls,

pornography and B movies, so Currin paints images that challenge conventional sense and taste, with his perverse ideals about women, including libidinous nymphs, strict middleaged women and the most angelic of feminine models. A coherent aspect throughout his oeuvre is his search for the point where the beautiful and the grotesque meet in perfect equilibrium.

NEAPOLITAN PAINTING THE CARLA AND FRANCESCO VALERIO COLLECTION texts by N. Spinosa

Francesco De Mura, Enea e Didone con Cupido nelle apparenze di Ascanio

The Neapolitan school of painting assumed its personal artistic identity from the 17th century onwards through the work of several important artists influenced by the teachings of Caravaggio who lived in Naples between 1607 and 1610. Over one hundred paintings representing three centuries of history and belonging to the “Neapolitan Collection” of Carla and Francesco Valerio are featured in this volume; the paintings are described and illustrated in great detail by Nicola Spinosa. Spinosa has written many books on the topic and is considered a leading expert in Neapolitan painting. His detailed introductions precede the descriptions of the individual works, containing stories both sacred and profane. The book contains a series of portraits of saints and stories of devotion, adoration of

the shepherds and magi, each brushstroke creating scenes exuding spirituality, emotion, personality and strength. Faith and paganism weave together with stories of heroes and gods and new takes on classical myths. We also see plenty of reality here, “real life” in all its hard work, depicted in gestures, poses, food and flower compositions, and pretty views. A few of the many artists included in this impressive publication are: Giovan Filippo Criscuolo, Francesco Guarino, Bernardo Cavallino, Antonio De Bellis, Salvator Rosa, Luca Giordano, Giovan Battista Ruoppolo, Abraham Brueghel, Guglielmo Courtois, Juan Ruiz, Tomás Ruiz, Pierre-Jacques Volaire, and Charles-François Grenier De La Croix.

IL DADO È TRATTO

ALBERTO BIASI with an essay by S. Lemoine

edited by S. Risaliti

Alberto Biasi is one of the major figures in Italian post-war art history. He is one of the most coherent and authoritative experts in the world in the field of Programmed Art or Kinetic Art, also referred to as Optical Art. Forma Edizioni presents the catalogue of the exhibition on the occasion of the monographic exhibition at the Tornabuoni Art gallery in Paris in collaboration 60 with the artist himself and curated by Serge Lemoine (Professor emeritus at the Sorbonne and previously director of the Musée d’Orsay in Paris). The publication presents a detailed history of Alberto Biasi’s life and work, comprehensively portrayed through the critical text by Lemoine, describing the Maestro’s life, the most important places and fundamental stages of his career, as well as his artistic evolution. The text is enriched with images from historic archives, to introduce the complete collection of the works on show, with the addition of certain “iconic pieces” which have been milestones in the artist’s career. A large section is dedicated to his career (biography, bibliography, solo and collective exhibitions): it enriches the book, providing in-depth analysis useful in understanding the artist and his specific artistic expression.

“To use a strong expression: ‘the die is cast’. Imitation was no longer a problem; above all, it was not an academic canon to be obeyed, an ideology to be followed. The rupture with the figurative tradition prepared by the avant-garde artists in the first two decades of the 20th century occurred quite rapidly. Between Como and Milan, as well as collaboration among architects, painters and sculptors, there were international exchanges rich in innovation, and encounters useful to non-figurative artistic research.” S. Risaliti

DADAMAINO

TURI SIMETI

texts by B. Blistène and F. Gualdoni

with an essay by B. Corà

“No matter how one approaches Dadamaino’s work, it resists any attempt at classification. It shirks from it. One thought she was Informal in the 1950’s, then almost Kinetic in the following years. One saw her as Minimalist and Serialist in the 1970’s. One related her to Arte Povera and even Conceptual Art in-between. What is she, exactly, and why does she get our attention today, with increasing acuity and curiosity? Between categories and reason, it is possible that Dadamaino confronts us to the difficulty of judging, and this might even be one of the most important aspects of her work. There is no submission to a given order. No ties to a movement. No belonging. Something, in fact, that is in perfect sync with that woman as we know her. Revolted and engaged, militant and free. If wouldn’t be the least merit of this work to be equal to the woman who made it. Dadamaino is no more an offspring of Spatialism than she is an epigone of kinetic art; no more a follower of European minimalist art than she is a representative of some forms of process-oriented art with which she has too often been associated. She is all of that at once, keen on drawing specific convergence lines, different objectives and unique perspectives. A common point ties her works together, however: Dadamaino has a taste for experience, as well as for patience. For her, patience and experience even seem to be the two foundations for any kind of attentive work – if not a philosophy of creation.” B. Blistène

For many years, Turi Simeti has been one of the principal figures on the contemporary artistic and exhibition scene. Over fifty works taken from his long career are collected in this publication that Forma Edizioni has dedicated to his oeuvre on the occasion of the monographic exhibition that will be held at the Tornabuoni Art gallery in Paris from October 10, 2014. A critique by Bruno Corà acts as an introduction to a selection of Turi Simeti’s works, retracing the progressive stages of his artistic development; the artist gradually detached himself from the flat surface of his canvas, and using recurring elements or contrasting harmony of form, he developed new compositions strong in intensity and movement. A section written in collaboration with the Simeti archives closes the publication providing biographical and bibliographical details on personal and collective exhibitions necessary for a deeper understanding of the artist and his work.

GIUSEPPE CHIARI

ARNALDO POMODORO

texts by F. Migliorati with an introduction by E. Crispolti

essays by B. Corà

66

This volume is dedicated to the work of Giuseppe Chiari (19262010), an eclectic and experimental artist and composer from Florence, Italian promoter of the historical avant-garde of the research art. His work is here documented by a large volume published in the Art section of Forma Edizioni. This book represents an important overview of the artist’s work comprising about 900 works of half a century of production. The volume is enhanced by the critical essays of Fabio Migliorati in collaboration with Mario Chiari, the artist’s son. “The work of Giuseppe Chiari is based on a discourse on the freedom to act (to make art), ritualized in experience, as

reference to human constancy, closely linked to the social and political dimension of things, all through the performance of the work, the action of the object, in the movement which is accomplished from the musical intervention to the visual one. The artistic principle is an allegory of the pursuit of a free action, which means creativity and which is both inspired by and leading to it.” F. Migliorati

The book retraces the career and works of the famous Italian sculptor through the illustration of more than fifty pieces selected from Pomodoro’s historical repertoire, some of which are on show at the exhibition, while others are an essential complement in representing the artist’s long and rich career as completely as possible. The works are introduced by 67 a long critical essay by Bruno Corà written for the artist’s monographic exhibition held in Paris in 2011. The text provides the reader with a double reflection, not only on the unquestionable merit of Pomodoro’s works and the founding aspects of his artistic production, but also on the role played by his contribution to the Italian and international cultural scene. Certain texts written by the artist himself define and assist in understanding the different series of works in various stages of his sculptural production.

On the occasion of the exhibition Tout feu tout flamme at Tornabuoni Art in Paris, Forma edizioni presents a catalogue with all the works in the exhibition as well as some other unedited images that show the artists at work and are essential to understand them. A critical essay by Daniel Abadie, curator of the catalogue and of the exhibition introduces the different sections, dedicated to the biography and the works of each artist.Tornabuoni Art and Daniel Abadie bring together for the first time 40 of the most outstanding works of the greatest artists who used fire for their artworks. Rather than the representation of fire it is its involvement with the artists who reveal it as a fundamental element of their creative process. This exhibition shows the different ways in which artists perceive fire, a phenomenon that has always been a fascination. The living aspect of flames, the moving play of light and shadow and the range of colours they produce, make them into cultural tools, considered a real source of inspiration for artists. Fire is shapeless, perpetually changes, and it allows great

freedom of interpretation: from Yves Klein’s “Paintings of Fire” to Alberto Burri’s “Combustions”, Arman’s “Accumulations” and Bernard Aubertin’s “Paths of Fire”; from Jannis Kounellis’ artifice of the “flower of fire” and Christian Boltanski’s “eschatological shadows” to Pier Paolo Calzolari’s “icy burns” or Chen Zhen’s “ashes”.

Arman, Senza titolo / Untitled (Cimabue) 1970, 200 × 160 × 20 cm

edited by D. Abadie

“...The white line, which seemed to mark the passage toward the second half of the twentieth century, introduced a creative vibration and announced sociopolitical and artistic transformations. It was in itself a symbol of a universal questioning.A generation was born, which was able to confront reality, and invented an art so powerful that it added a new dimension to creation – which, in the postwar years, was yearning for an artistic and spiritual renovation, engaged in an attempt to redefine modernity. In Manzoni’s words, a ‘new artistic conception’, a spirit of resistance, was opposed to the triumphant materialism of the emerging consumer society. It seemed as though European idealism wished to counter-balance the cynicism of artists such as Warhol; it responded to the American Pop movement with a ‘Zen’ attitude that the color white spectacularly embodied.” D.

FONTANA E PARIGI

MIMMO ROTELLA

LUCIO FONTANA

with an essay by B. Blistène

texts by E. Crispolti with an introduction by F. Migliorati

with an essay by B. Corà

texts by E. Crispolti, L. M. Barbero, E. Lucie-Smith

The volume explores, through a selection of approximately seventy works, including sculptures and paintings, the Master’s artistic activity from the 50s onwards. The critical essays by Enrico Crispolti enrich the text by providing some important insights into the life of Lucio Fontana, on his visits to Paris and Milan, during which he continued to hold a dense network of exchanges and relations with artists, architects and intellectuals of his time. Vintage photographs, direct quotations from the artist and a thorough biography contextualize the art of Fontana in the specific cultural climate in which he lived and help to better understand the evolutionary spirit of this personality who, until his death, has been driven by a constant creative tension.

On the occasion of the exhibition Mimmo Rotella which opened on March 29, 2012 at Tornabuoni Art gallery in Paris, Forma edizioni presents a catalogue with all the works in the exhibition as well as some other pieces that are essential to understand the artist. The images are introduced by a critical essay by Bruno Corà. “Fifty years separate this festive and meaningful réntrée of the art of Mimmo Rotella in Paris from his first individual exhibition at Jeanette Goldschmidt’s Galerie J, which featured a selection of monothematic décollages dedicated to the Cinecittà series (1962). And it is unlikely that Rotella would have failed to stress such an anniversary...”. B. Corà

Enrico Castellani is a monograph and a catalogue of the exhibition of the artist, hosted in Tonabuoni Art gallery in Paris. The exhibition has shown off about forty of his most significant works, illustrated and accompanied in the volume by texts of Bernard Blistène. Enrico Castellani, who was born in 1930, is one of the leading figures of the artistic and cultural movement Zero, which 70 aims to renew the language of image and form in the 50s and 60s. Thanks to the collaboration of the Castellani Archive, the volume, in a trilingual French/ Italian/English edition, decribes the creative and artistic contribution of this protagonist of 20th century art. A large critical section is devoted to the biobibliography and to the list of exhibitions in which Castellani has participated.

Lucio Fontana is universally acknowledged as one of the foremost figures in the generation of artists who, in the 1950s and 1960s, helped bring about a radical conceptual and linguistic change in contemporary art. The role he played was already being pointed out by specialised critics in the early years of the post-war period, involving a growing number of scholars and admirers, while also constituting a model for the young generation of artists in Europe. The catalogue, accompanying the exhibition that Tornabuoni Art gallery in London dedicated to Lucio Fontana, is the result of indepth archival research. It features texts by Enrico Crispolti, Luca Massimo Barbero and Edward Lucie-Smith. The authors have provided important curatorship, with historical reconstructions and critical analyses that bring to bear

upon this selection of works the full significance of the targeted research programme. The idea behind the selection is to document the main cycles of work to which Fontana dedicated the last twenty years of his life, so we find canvases from the “Holes” cycle from the opening years of the 1950s, the “Stones” from 1953-56, the “Baroques” from 1956-57, the “Impastos” and the “Anilines” from the end of the decade. Together with these works, there are naturally also various types of “Slashes”, from the experimental ones of 1959-60 to the essentially iconic works of the 1960s, as well as the complex “Little Theatres” of 1964-66 and the new “Oils” with craters of the early 1960s.

SCHEGGI edited by L. M. Barbero

72

SLIPCASE + TWO BOOKS ita/eng or fr/eng; cloth covered slipcase

The second volume accompanies SCHEGGI’s individual exhibition at the Tornabuoni Art gallery in Paris. A comprehensive, exacting catalogue seeks to outline Scheggi’s extraordinary, interdisciplinary artistic explorations, starting with this early work in the 1950s to his last conceptual and metaphysical directions in the early 1970s. The catalogue starts from the essential view that Scheggi’s full œuvre, in its cohesive eclecticism, cannot be understood in separate phases or times. Taking it as a single trajectory of his life and art, the catalogue is divided into seven chronological and thematic parts, introduced by writings by Luca Massimo Barbero and abundant footnotes to suggest further, useful readings. This division helps to understand the different points of the unified trajectory of Paolo Scheggi’s work where the absolute definition of form comes up against the thrill of a constant re-assessment of the work, between its extension in space and its metaphysical rarefaction.
