Aprašymas

The book documents the first chapter of the multi-year project Convergenze, curated by art critic Giacinto Di Pietrantonio, which aims to offer an updated interpretation of the history and culture of the automobile and to reinterpret the Museum's heritage through new narrative paradigms. Alongside a selection of works from the Sandretto Collection - including 100 cinesi by Paola Pivi, Nudeltisch (Spaghetti painting) by Giulia Andreani and the triptych CREMASTER 2: The Ballad of Max Jensen by Matthew Barney - the publication presents 34 paintings from the Second Futurism movement, in dialogue with the cars that embodied the "mechanical fervour" of the first three decades of the 20th century: the aesthetics of Aeropainting - including Il marinaio by Nikolay Diulgheroff, Divinità della vita aerea by Fillìa and Bolide Rosso by Tato - engage with engineering and the imagery of speed. The project is completed by four works by contemporary artists, two of which are site-specific commissions by the Museum and conceived in relation to its collection and architecture, including C/ART SERVICE by Robert Kuśmirowski and Supercar by Cristian Chironi.
