In an alleged circular motion, Studio Gariboldi, coming from the satellite experience of Via Ventura 5, returns to its original location and confirms its starting choices that resisted through the sieve of years and acquired new meanings.
Set up at Corso Monforte 23, Studio Gariboldi's new location, the showcase intends to promote the awareness of Milanese art of the Post-War period. The Gallery intensions are to testify to everything that was happening in the 1950s at Palazzo Cicogna. It’s not a coincidence or if it is, it is definitely auspicious, that Lucio Fontana’s studio was located in Corso Monforte 23. He is the founder of the Spatialism, an avant-garde movement that perceives the Space as a propulsion into the new possibilities, new idioms, without any limit.
In 1950s a group of Italian artists made of the Spatialism a way of doing and express themselves thanks to various languages which led to different results.
The Space seen as a new frontier was a reason, one of the reasons, to perceive the facts all in the same way, in the usual identical way. Perspectives that have not been equalled even today, because the Space is far from being known, discovered or dominated. Therefore, Fontana, Bacci, Crippa, Deluigi, Dova, Sottsass, Scanavino, Donati, Capogrossi have been passed though the sieve of the Art History and personal history of the gallerists. Their language is contemporary and it binds to the vision of our millennium through colors and harmonies.
The new exhibition season of Studio Gariboldi starts from them. It will be followed by shows which will take into account, as it’s always been, the aesthetic taste and the research that aims to respect the History. The technical knowledge and a form of classicism will guarantee to the collector artworks that have no end-date.
