Bozzesi Franco

Bozzesi Franco Film sketch for Les Survivants de l'Infini (Reynold Brown's 1955 Citizen of Space ) for Star Ciné Cosmos cover . Tempera, drawing, photographic film/cardboard. Cm 38x28. And now a selection of extraordinary works, on thick cardboard stamped on the back L' artistica, a historic fine arts store on Via del Babuino in Rome in the 1950s and 1960s. A very rare repertoire of plates representing a visual experiment and contamination lasting a few years, from the late 1950s to 1965, almost exclusively designed for the French market, for magazines such as Star Cine Cosmos and Le film du coer. Selected and created by a brilliant artist and editor like Franco Bozzesi, who then also involves authors like Ermanno Iaia and Franco Fiorenzi in his workshop. Collage, fine photographic film paper cut out and shaped and retouched on top with tempera paint interventions and further shading applied all on sturdy cardboard boards. Not exactly cineromanzo, but an innovative form in terms of depth, perspective, and inventions that leads the cinema of those years back almost to one big melò. Unique works arising from the cineracconcerts of the 1940s that come one step away from the photoromanzo, the golden season (with the actual balloon) probably begins with "Super cinema," at the end of 1950 (first release Il brigante Musolino) and the 'apogee is in the middle of the decade: born and die "Fotoromanzo gigante," "I grandi films-I capolavori dello schermo," "Amica film," "I tuoi film-romanzo."The series we present here, extremely rare, from the art of Franco Bozzesi certainly cites the Giant Cineromanzo published by Lanterna Magica, actually an emanation of the De Laurentiis productions, as well as the Apollon productions They are among the best quality cineromancials, which also make extensive use of set photos, have an 'author who signs the texts (Mara Baldeva), a large format, excellent paper and sometimes come out at the same time as the films (for Soldati's La donna del fiume even earlier), in synergy with the house productions.But Franco Bozzesi goes further, he does not use in these plates the balloon, but rather experiments with vignettes with shaded effect and intersections of collages and perspectives Unique works of an artist publisher who decides to try a new path in France for a few glorious years, also crossing Jean Luc Godard's New Wave.
