365 - TWO POSTERS: CITY OF CALICE LIGURE PAINTING AND SCULPTURE EXHIBITION “12 YEARS OF ART IN CALICE.” September 4–12, 1976. Dimensions: 50 x 70 cm. The phrase on the poster, “12 Years of Art in Calice,” refers to a specific anniversary. It all began in 1964, when the renowned abstract painter Emilio Scanavino decided to establish his home-studio in Calice Ligure. Having fallen in love with the village, Scanavino began inviting friends, colleagues, critics, and gallery owners from all over Italy and abroad (particularly from Milan and Turin). In a short time, the village transformed into a veritable spontaneous artists’ commune (often nicknamed “Il Branco” for the playful and communal spirit with which the artists worked, dined, and discussed ideas together). The group exhibition in September 1976 celebrated exactly twelve years since the beginning of this fruitful cultural exchange—1964–1976 — (source: https://fondazionescanavino.org/it/info/pubblicazioni3). 2) RUSCONI BOOKS IN CORTINA: GIANCARLO VIGORELLI AND PIERO CHIARA PRESENT *COSÌ NON SIA* BY GINO MONTESANO … The poster shows the program for three cultural events related to the presentation of books by the Rusconi Editore publishing house, held in Cortina d’Ampezzo in August 1985.
