Bruno Munari-Luigi Veronesi. Tra fantasia e metodo

The exhibition inaugurated in Cavalese represents the first exhibition project that may be defined of “parallel interpretation” of the works of two great protagonists of XXth century art.

These two masters, well-known both in Italy and abroad, have a crucial role in the contemporary artistical heritage since they were the spokesmen of the concept of “total art”, a system of interacting languages, from drawing to publishing graphic, from photography to cinema, from set disigning to music and finally to the interest for education and teaching of artistical disciplines.

Bruno Munari (Milan 1907 – 1998) and Luigi Veronesi (Milan 1908 – 1998) have a lot in common; they belong to the same generation, and share the same interest for interdisciplinary issues, they love fantasy of images and rigour of method, and aspire to an idea of “total art” though their different characters have influenced their creative experiences.

Munari and Veronesi pursue the idea of “thinking and making art” as a total experience that cannot be included into a formula or into a system of autoreference signs, but that goes beyond through the analogies between visual and verbal, tactile and sound expressions.
