Eugenio Carmi Art
Italian, 1920-1977
Eugenio Carmi was born in 1920 in Genoa, Italy. At age fifteen he began painting lessons, which came to a halt during the Second World War during which he graduated with a degree in chemistry from Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. In 1946, Carmi was living in Italy and became a student of the painter Felice Casorati, whose work remained an inspiration for his own in the next decade.
In the late 1950s, Carmi was tasked with promoting Cornigliano Steelworks and used steel and iron to create contemporary art to enhance the company’s image. This led to his first solo exhibition in 1958 at the Galleria Numero in Florence, where he presented enamel paintings on steel. During the 1960s and 1970s, Carmi focused on creating work inspired by the combination of industry and culture, leading to lithographs on tin plates and linking kinetic and audiovisual art. It was in the 1970s that he developed his signature geometric style, a contrast from the Art Informel style of the previous decades. He often used mathematical laws such as the Pythagoras theorem to create his precise geometric shapes, a nod to his training at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.to

Howard Hodgkin hand-colored Early Evening in the Museum of Modern Art
By Howard Hodgkin
Located in New York, NY
Large scale black and white abstract interior scene with dots, lines, brushstrokes, and hand painting in grey, to hang in contemporary, modern and minimalist spaces. While British pop artists such as David Hockney and Patrick Caulfield numbered amongst Howard Hodgkin's circle of friends, Hodgkin's work is painterly, emotional, expressionist, and abstract.
Early Evening in the Museum of Modern Art, by Howard Hodgkin. Signed by the artist, numbered, and dated 79 lower center in red crayon. Soft-ground etching printed from the same plate as 'Late Afternoon in the Museum of Modern Art', with hand coloring in black gouache on Grey BFK Rives mould-made paper.
This print depicts an abstracted scene, perhaps a sculpture in front of a window in the Museum of Modern Art, Oxford, in Hodgkin's signature painterly style. The expressive mark-making in this print is an example of the artist’s movement in the late 70s towards pronounced gestures. Wide areas of deep black pigment contrast urgent swipes of ink. Always seeking greater richness in his prints, Hodgkin layered ink and hand coloring in this print, rendering each impression in the edition unique.

Italian Artist Modern Silkscreen Eugenio Carmi
By Eugenio Carmi
Located in Surfside, FL
Eugenio Carmi is an Italian painter born in 1920 in Genoa. He studied in Turin in Felice Casorati’s studio. His experience as a graphic designer in the ‘50s, is decisive for his pictorial research, based on a rigorous geometrical structure and on a fine analysis of the perception of colors.
He participated in the Venice Biennale in 1966.
In 1967 he showed some electronic works in the Superlund exhibition organized by Pierre Restany in Lund, Sweden.
In 1968, he introduced the “Carm-o-matic”, during the Cybernetic Serendipity show at the Institute of Contemporary Art in London.
In 1973, he produced an entirely abstract 25-minute show for RAI’s Experimental Programs Service. The same year, he taught visual art seminars at the Rhode Island Institute of Design in the United States.
In the ‘70s, he gave courses at the Accademia of Macerata and at the Accademia of Ravenna (Italy).
He produced illustrations for three of Umberto Eco’s stories, published in Italy by Bompiani and in many other countries. The French Ministry of Education has selected them for libraries and schools in France.
The most important retrospective of his work was organized by the Milan town hall in 1990, followed by a prestigious exhibition in Budapest, in the halls of the Royal Palace, in 1992.
In 1991 he exhibited at the San Francisco Italian American Museum.
In 1996 the “Carmi” book is published by Umberto Eco and Duncan Macmillan and presented at the Milan Triennial: a synthesis of his life.
From 1957 to 1965 he will play the role of artistic director of Cornigliano's corporate magazine.
During this time iron and steel are materials that Carmi meets every day and become a strong creative stimulus for him. In his first solo exhibition - presented by Gillo Dorfles in 1958 at the Galleria Numero di Firenze - the protagonists are the enamels on steel and since 1960 he made various iron and steel works welded and lithographed milk.
Iron and steel is the work that in 1962 presented at Spoleto Sculpture exhibition in the city , organized by Giovanni Carandente under the V Festival of the Two Worlds .
In this period, he is involved not only in the cultural politics of the Istallier ( Victor Vasarely , Umberto Eco , Max Bill , Konrad Wachsmann , Furio Colombo , Ugo Mulas , Kurt Blum , Emanuele Luzzati , Flavio Costantini ) , But also in the cultural activity of the Warehouse Gallery , which Carmi founded in Boccadasse in 1963. The Warehouse Gallery with multiples intends to propose a serial art accessible to a wider audience and is placed in international discussions on 'Multiplied Art, representing one of the most important examples.
The friendship and mutual esteem that binds him to Umberto Eco has two very important fruits at this time: Children's Fables and Stripsody . In 1966 for the publishing house Bompiani came three Eco fables illustrated by Carmi and then re-introduced in 1988 with new Carmi illustrations and a fable more. Stripsody is a musical project on cartoon sound, designed and then interpreted by the genius singer Cathy Berberian, with Eco texts and illustrations by Carmi.
Eugenio Carmi, who is always fascinated by the new technological possibilities in the 1960s and 1970s, is the author of experimental cinematic and audiovisual artwork and also realizes those who will call electrical imagery signals that will also be at the center of a provocative installation on the streets of the city of Caorle .
It is at this stage that in 1966 he was at the XXXIII edition of the Venice Biennale with the electronic work SPCE (electronically controlled polycyclic structure), which is also the invitation of Pierre Restany to participate with electronic works at the SuperLund exhibition in Sweden.
In 1971, he moved to Milan with his family, where he established his study.
At this point, though with incursions in other parallel fields such as the realization of mirrors and stained glass, painting, and sporadically sculpture - which had approached the Istal period - is at the center of its activity. It is at the beginning of the seventies that it deepens the geometric language, already open with some previous experiences (accident prevention signs for the Italsider, some multiples for the Deposit and electrical imagery signals), replacing it with the informal one.
In 1979 he produced a magazine - which will remain the same number - by the name of Res Publica , for which he receives the contributions of intellectuals and artists, including Umberto Eco, Antonio Porta , Gillo Dorfles , Richard Paul Lohse...
