Burri Inedito
Curated by Maurizio Calvesi con Gabriella Belli, Bruno Corà, Andrea Emiliani, Susan Ferleger Brades, Helmut Friedel, Ida Gianelli, Carlo Pirovano, Erich Steingraber, Giuliano Serafini e Italo Tommasoni.
The Burri Foundation launches the exhibition “Burri inedito”/”Burri never seen before” in a pavilion of the Ex Seccatoi del Tabacco, refurbished for the occasion at Città di Castello (Perugia), from 24 June to 30 September.
The show by Maurizio Calvesi consists of 160 works of which 26 have never been exhibited or published before (black and gold, cretti/cracks and gold, black and red cellotex), mostly from the last four years of the Master’s work. It also consists of other paintings in the general catalogue which, even if they are older, are however “new” to the audience: among them 60 works of a very small size (6×7, 7×8, 8×10) that witness some of the different artistic expressions of Burri (sacchi/sacks, legni/woods and combustioni/ combustions).
