Luigi Montanarini Art

Italian, 1906-1998

Luigi Montanarini’s artistic career started a little by chance when, in 1925, during one of his frequent visits to the Uffizi, he met the painter Maurice Denis and in the same year he made his first stay in France. In 1927, Montanarini attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence and began the artistic and emotional bond with Felice Carena, his teacher of painting. He immediately showed great passion and love for the classics and the masters of the 19th century, from Courbet to Paul Cézanne and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. After graduating from the academy, Montanarini made his second trip to Europe. He visited the Netherlands twice and renewed his interest in Rubens, Van Gogh and Rembrandt. Later, he visited Zurich and returned to Paris, where he met Gino Severini and attended Alberto Magnelli, Picasso and had fertile intellectual exchanges with Jacques Villon and Alfred Manessier. Montanarini adheres to the Roman School (Novecento) together with which he exhibits at the La Cometa Gallery in Rome. The following year, at the end of the war, he founded together with Pericle Fazzini, Enrico Prampolini, Joseph Jarema and Virgilio Guzzi, the Art Club based in Via Margutta. Montanarini met and attended Lionello Venturi, returned to Italy after the exile of the Fascist period. The year 1956 marks the beginning of its informal period and in 1965, Montanarini became director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and a member of UNESCO, which he held until 1976.

He is a member of the renowned 1980s generation of Cuban artists, whose works differentiated from other contemporaries, noticeably in their intentional distancing from political criticism as a form of expression. This generation was interested in establishing and legitimizing new values of art for art’s sake, gathering inspiration from art movements happening outside of Cuba. Born in Havana, Cuba in 1959, the artist’s paintings explore abstraction and semiotics through the use of color, texture and scale. García de la Nuez participated in the historic 1982 exhibition titled 4x4 with colleagues Gustavo Acosta...

Abstract Composition - Screen Print by Luigi Montanarini - 1970s
By Luigi Montanarini
Located in Roma, IT
Geometries is a beautiful original screen print, realized by the Italian artist Luigi Montanarini (1906-1998), published by La Nuova Foglio, a publishing house of Macerata, Italy, as the dry-stamp points on the lower right corner of the sheet. Hand-signed and numbered in pencil on the lower margin. From a rare edition of La Nuova Foglio edition of 23/50 prints. In very good conditions. This contemporary and Informal artwork, representing a synthetic colorful abstract composition, shows how Montanarini frees the color from the geometric rigor in a bidimensional surface. Luigi Montanarini (Florence, 1906 - Rome, 1998) His artistic career started a little by chance when, in 1925, during one of his frequent visits to the Uffizi, he met the painter Maurice Denis and in the same year he stayed for the first time in France.
