TWO POSTERS: 1) 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 town transformed into a veritable spontaneous artistic commune (often nicknamed “Il Branco” for the playful and communal spirit with which the artists worked, dined, and discussed together). The group exhibition in September 1976 celebrated exactly twelve years of this fruitful cultural exchange—1964–1976—(source: https://fondazionescanavino.org/it/info/pubblicazioni3). 2) MONUMENTALLY YOURS, VANNI VIVIANI, MILAN ART CENTER … FEBRUARY 14 – MARCH 15, 1975. Dimensions: 48 x 70 cm. The exhibition is based on “Concepts of Monumentality Realized on an Operational Basis by Vanni Viviani.” It is a collective project in which Viviani collaborated with a vast and highly influential group of artists from the Italian and international art scenes of the time. The poster depicts a grid of 48 different panels.
