The exhibition “Otto modi per dire incisione”, eight techniques interpreted by twenty artist’s works, wants to be an opened door upon the world of the graphic engraved, that could offer to everybody a way to be in contact with the original art press.
Seven engraving techniques have been selected: xylography, burin, puntasecca, black manner, etching, acquatinta, lithography, and as eighth it has been considered the contemporary use of some techniques into the same work (mixed technique).
Every technique is illustrated by a short explanatory note and presented by many artists’ works.
The task to interpret the techniques is entrusted to the works of: Mario Avati, Franceschino Barbera (Sandrùn), Andrè Beuchat, Renzo Biasion, Andrea Boyer, Mario Carletti, Marc Chagall, Armando Donna, Gianfranco Ferroni, Pino Finocchiaro, Federica Galli, Vincenzo Gatti, Karolina Larusdottir, Xavier de Maistre, Bruno Missieri, Guido Navaretti, Nella Piantà, Vincenzo Piazza, Tullio Pericoli, Luciano Proverbio, Roberto Stelluti, Mariarosaria Stigliano.
The gallery has already dedicated in past a solo exhibition to many of these engravers. The new exhibition will be the occasion to put in evidence the personal way of every artist using the same technique.
