<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Best known for painting and recipient of the Venice Biennale's Grand Prize in 1960, Vedova also designed costumes and moving light sets for the opera and made large-scale glass engravings and light collages. This collection documents a selection of his work from the 1950s to today.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A massive full-career retrospective for Arte Informale painter Emilio Vedova</strong></p><p>One hundred years after his birth, <i>Emilio Vedova</i> examines the career of the Italian painter Emilio Vedova (1919-2006), best known for his role in the postwar Arte Informale movement. The book surveys Vedova's career in terms of the artist's investigations of line and gesture: from the lively, energetic landscape drawings of the 1930s through his progress toward increasingly expressive, materially inventive work--like the <i>Plurimi</i> of the 1960s, in which the artist broke up the surface of a picture into multiple pieces. <p/>The publication's account of Vedova's career is enriched by an extensive set of illustrations: images of the artist's works, plus reproductions of his personal photographs, texts and archival material that flesh out the artist's historical and artistic context. <i>Emilio Vedova</i> offers a comprehensive overview of the work of a pivotal figure in postwar Italian art.</p>
