This title offers the art of Italy during a pivotal and stimulating
period. Italy in the 1930s, when Fascism was dominant, was the
scene of an extremely vigorous artistic battle in which every
style, from classicism to futurism, from expressionism to abstract,
and from monumental art to decorative painting for the bourgeois
home was involved. The situation was further complicated by the
arrival on the scene of design and mass communication - posters,
illustrated magazines, and more - which borrowed numerous ideas
from the "fine" arts and broadcast them to a wider audience. It was
this complex mix that introduced the concept of modernity to Italy.
The exhibition on which this book is based explores the 1930s
through the masterpieces of over forty leading artists of the
period and 99 paintings, 17 sculptures, and 20 objects of design.
They tell the story of a crucial era in Italy's history
characterized by an extremely innovative arts scene.
