Mimmo Rotella
Mimmo Rotella was an Italian artist and poet who is best known for collages made from torn advertising posters in a medium that he called "double décollages."
Rotella was born on October 7, 1918, in Catanzaro, Italy, and studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Naples before moving to Rome in 1945. There, he became associated with the Lettrism movement and — along with Raymond Hains, Jacque Villeglé and François Dufrêne — became known as one of "Les Affichistes," an artist group credited as the forefathers of street art.
Rotella's first solo exhibition was held in 1951 in at the Galleria Chiurazzi in Rome, and later that same year, he was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship with which he traveled to Kansas City University. In 1961, he was invited by Pierre Restany to join the New Realism movement, whose members included Yves Klein, Arman and Jean Tinguely. In 1964, he represented Italy at the Venice Biennale. He died on January 8, 2006, in Milan, Italy, at the age of 87.

- Erotellica, 1974, Lithograph, Pop, Nouveau RealismeBy Mimmo RotellaLocated in Milano, ITFrom a series of pop lithographs by Mimmo Rotella, published by Plura Edizioni, Italy, dating back to the early 1970s. Signed and numbered in pencil on the front. Edition 60/80 copies. Opera Proveniente da collezione privata, Italia. The piece is accompanied by a certificate of provenance issued by the gallery. Le condizioni dell'opera sono per lo più perfette: nessuna traccia del tempo, nessun graffio e margini perfettamente conservati. Il pezzo viaggia senza cornice per avere una spedizione più economica e sicura su richiesta dell'acquirente. Poiché il pezzo viaggia dall'Italia, si prega di considerare che l'espletamento delle pratiche di esportazione richiede un minimo di una settimana dal momento dell'acquisto. Mimmo Rotella, che ha rappresentato l'Italia alla Biennale di Venezia del 1964, è stato sperimentale fino in fondo: nelle sue poesie, nei suoi dipinti, nelle sue fotografie, nei suoi assemblaggi scultorei e nei suoi collage ha abbattuto le convenzioni, lasciando dietro di sé un corpus di opere stravaganti. All'inizio degli anni Cinquanta dipinge astrazioni geometriche, poi si allontana dal suo studio e si rivolge al mondo che lo circonda. Lì trovò i manifesti pubblicitari e cinematografici deteriorati, che strappò dalle pareti, attaccò alle tele e strappò ulteriormente per sviluppare composizioni semi-astratte dalle immagini dei mass media, che chiamò "doppi décollages". Grazie ai suoi collage, è stato associato a Raymond Hains, Jacques Villeglé e François Dufrêne...Category

The idea for these edgy, Oedipal works came to him when he was leafing through a catalogue of de Kooning’s "Women" series. Prince started sketching over the paintings, and, as time went on, he began applying fragments cut and pasted from catalogues and vintage porn...Category
