Francesco Clemente
The Italian-American artist Francesco Clemente (*1952) is one of the main representatives of the postmodern Transavantgarde and Arte Cifra, the Italian version of Neo-Expressionism. Among his extensive oeuvre, the publication focuses on Clemente’s enigmatic self-portraits and presents insights into his latest works series.
description
Clemente’s travels, alternating between India, New York and Europe, contribute to the remarkably multi-faceted aspects of his works. The leitmotifs, which vacillate between a figurative and abstract approach, are the human body as well as echoes of Indian culture and philosophy. The catalogue concentrates on the pastels, watercolours, gouaches and printed graphics, including important series like the "Amalfi Watercolours", the "Tarots" and "From the Terreiro", whose subject lies in the poems of Adam Zagajewski, as well as the cycle of printed graphics on Alberto Savinio’s war diary "Departure of the Argonaut".
