About the Item

ARMODIO (1938) Abstract Composition Original Etching Signed and justified c.p.a Dimensions: 49,5 x 34,5 cm. Armodio was born in Piacenza in 1938. His training depends not so much on the attendance of the "Gazzola" Art Institute in his city, but also on the encounter with the painter Luciano Spazzali, whose study is the ideal place for experimentation and contamination. Here he met the painter Gustavo Foppiani, first teacher and then a fellow traveler; the two work together and then join the painter Carlo Bertè who will divide the study until 1980. This formed a free grouping animated by curiosity towards the most varied manifestations of culture, intent on reading reality under the sign of irony and inclined towards playful transgression. The first Piacenza personal exhibition was in 1963 at the Genocchi Gallery in Piacenza and in 1964, thanks to Foppiani, the Obelisk of Rome arrived at the gallery. In the sixties the painter stayed for a short time in London and collaborated with the American Lily Shepley and later with the Galleria Forni of Bologna. While in 1972 he met Philippe Guimiot, who opened his own gallery in Brussels to the artist, thus starting a fruitful collaboration. Since then, most of his paintings have entered important private collections in Europe as in the U.S.A. After a period with the Gian Ferrari Gallery in Milan, Armodio arrives at the Braga Gallery in Piacenza; after that experience, he works exclusively with the Galleria L'Immagine in Arezzo and then with the Galleria Marescalchi in Bologna. Today its activity is treated by the major Italian and foreign galleries.
