374 - TWO POSTERS: 1) MILENA MILANI, “IN PRAISE OF MADNESS: WRITTEN AND PAINTED,” AOSTE, OCTOBER 27, 1973, “LA DÉFENSE … GALERIE.” Dimensions: 48.5 x 70 cm. The exhibition was organized in the Aosta Valley at La Défense Galerie, an avant-garde exhibition space active in the regional capital during those years. The poster itself, printed in two colors (black and white/cream), served both as a promotional poster and as a catalog/brochure for visitors, featuring on the right a detailed biography and a list of the artist’s activities up to 1973. Extremely rare. 2) THE GIRL NAMED GIULIO. Public poster created for the cultural event tied to the screening of the film "The Girl Named Giulio" by Teramo-born director Tonino Valerii, a film adaptation of the novel of the same name by Milena Milani published by Longanesi in 1964, which caused a scandal and led to the author being sued. The screening was organized by the Teramo Press Association “L. Antonelli” and the Teramo Provincial Tourism Board. The film was presented by director Tonino Valerii, writer Milena Milani, and renowned film critic Giulio Cesare Castello. The event took place on Saturday, June 26, 1970, although the year is not specified on the poster. The film “La ragazza di nome Giulio” received censorship approval and was officially released in Italian theaters on June 26, 1970 (source: Cineteca Nazionale). Extremely rare.
