About the Item

Valerio Adami — Signed Lithograph with Euro Art Embossing, c.1970s Dimensions: 50 × 65 cm (19.7 × 25.6 in) A striking lithograph by Valerio Adami (Italian, b. 1935), one of the most celebrated European artists of the postwar era, renowned for his bold use of color, crisp black outlines, and a unique visual language that blends abstraction with figurative precision. This work, executed in vivid hues of cobalt blue, fuchsia, and deep violet, showcases Adami’s signature graphic style—recalling both Pop Art and modernist stained-glass windows. The composition plays with form and symbolism, a hallmark of Adami’s practice that often merges elements of history, literature, and psychoanalysis into vibrant visual narratives. Signed: Hand-signed Adami in the lower right Embossing: Stamped with the Euro Art blindstamp, typical of 1970s editions distributed by the Milan-based publisher known for bringing leading contemporary artists to an international audience. Medium: Lithograph on fine wove paper Date: c. 1970s Dimensions: 50 × 65 cm (19.7 × 25.6 in) Adami studied under Felice Carena at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan before establishing himself in Paris, where he became associated with the Nouvelle Figuration movement. Over the decades, his work has been exhibited at major international institutions, including the Centre Pompidou (Paris), the Museum of Modern Art (New York), and the Venice Biennale. This lithograph represents not only a compelling example of Adami’s mature style but also a collectible piece of postwar European graphic art with impeccable 1970s provenance. Colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings. The Art work will be shipped insured overseas in a custom made wooden crate. Cost of insured transport to the US is Euro 375 crate included. Pick-up by appointment only. Please note that importing Art into the United States should be free of import duties but please check.

Colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings. Valerio Adami (born 17 March 1935) is an Italian painter. Educated at the Accademia di Brera in Milan, he has since worked in both London and Paris. His art is influenced by Pop Art. Adami was born in Bologna. In 1945, at the age of ten, he began to study painting under the instruction of Felice Carena. He was accepted into the Brera Academy (Accademia di Brera) in 1951, and there studied as a draughtsman until 1954 in the studio of Achille Funi. In 1955 he went to Paris, where he met and was influenced by Roberto Matta and Wifredo Lam. His first solo exhibition came in 1959 in Milan. In his early career, Adami's works were expressionistic, but by the time of his second exhibition in 1964 at Kassel, he had developed a style of painting reminiscent of French Cloisonnism, featuring regions of flat color bordered by black lines. Unlike Gauguin, however, Adami's subjects were highly stylized and often presented in fragments, as seen in Telescoping Rooms (1965). In the 1970s, Adami began to address politics in his art, and incorporated subject matter such as modern European history, literature, philosophy, and mythology. In 1971, he and his brother Giancarlo created the film Vacances dans le désert. In 1974 he illustrated a Helmut Heissenbuttel poem, Occasional Poem No. 27.
