Art conversations
On Wednesday, April 15, at 6:00 pm at the Rovati Foundation, for the series Conversazioni d’arte, curated by Johan & Levi in collaboration with the Luigi Rovati Foundation, Fulvio Irace (professor emeritus of the Milan Polytechnic and editor of the volume) and Sara Catenacci (Scuola IMT Alti Studi Lucca) present Corpo Urbano: dalla scultura alla città. Scritti polemici (1970-1982), the new volume (Johan & Levi 2026) that collects the writings of the sculptor Francesco Somaini (1926-2005), who dedicated one of his happiest creative seasons to the theme of the city.
A pioneer of urban art in Italy and Europe, Somaini pursued his research by transcending previous artistic traditions, engaging with American architecture starting in the 1960s and 1970s, decades marked by solo and group exhibitions in New York and the USA, as well as the creation of monumental sculptures in Atlanta, Baltimore, and Rochester.
Event in collaboration with the Francesco Somaini Scultore ETS Foundation.
The meeting at the Luigi Rovati Foundation is free.
Reservations recommended.
