Mimmo Rotella Art
Italian, 1918-2006
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.

Questions About Mimmo Rotella Art
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024To make his decollages, Mimmo Rotella sourced posters from the streets. He would remove these advertisements from walls and then rip them into pieces. He carefully reassembled them by gluing them onto canvas. Then, he would destroy the canvas and reassemble the pieces to create a new work. Rotella called these pieces his “double collages.” Shop a collection of Mimmo Rotella art on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024Who is considered the father of Pop art is open for debate. Some experts give the title to Andy Warhol, whose clever appropriation of motifs and images helped to transform the artistic style into a lifestyle. Others may argue that Roy Lichtenstein deserves the credit, as his work drawing from print media helped to define the style. Another potential candidate is Richard Hamilton, whose 1956 collage Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing? is widely believed to have kickstarted the Pop art movement.
