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.

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.

’Geranium’ By Yutaka Takayanagi. Medium - Relief and lithographic print Edition - 5/20 Signed - Yes Size - 510mm x 660mm Date - 1978 Condition - Excellent. 10 out of 10. Born in Tokyo in 1941, Takayanagi's artistic journey began when he enrolled at Tokyo University of the Arts in 1960, studying under the renowned oil painter Kaoru Yamaguchi. His talent was quickly recognized when he received an Honorable Mention at the 8th Shell Arts Award Exhibition in the same year. During his time at university, Takayanagi took an intensive course in copper plate printing under Tetsuro Komai, receiving his degree from the graduate school in 1966. Fascinated by the simultaneous color print method, he started creating copperplate prints and soon gained recognition for his unique metallic reliefs, which he produced using collages of English newspapers. Takayanagi's passion for experimentation led him to create metallic emboss reliefs using his own photographs, and in the latter half of the 1980s, he moved on to silkscreen prints. He continued to push the boundaries of his art, constantly exploring new techniques and mediums. In 1978 and the following year, Takayanagi was appointed as an arts researcher for the Ministry of Culture and traveled to the United States, France, and the UK. These experiences enriched his artistic perspective and further cemented his reputation as a highly regarded artist. Takayanagi was part of the influential printmaking group Sosaku Hanga, which emerged in the early 20th century in Japan. This movement emphasized the artist's involvement in every stage of the printmaking process, from designing the image to carving and printing the blocks. Takayanagi's work often incorporates elements of nature and landscape, with an emphasis on texture and pattern. He also experimented with collage, incorporating found materials like newspaper clippings and photographs into his prints. Takayanagi's work has been exhibited extensively in Japan and internationally, including at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo. He has also received numerous awards for his contributions to printmaking, including the Japan Print Association Award and the Purple Ribbon Medal...
