The Thirties. The Arts in Italy Beyond Fascism

The Thirties. The Arts in Italy Beyond Fascism

22 September 2012-27 January 2013

Italy in the 1930s, when Fascism held sway, was the scene of an extremely vigorous artistic battle in which every style from classicism to Futurism, from expressionism to abstract art, and from monumental art to decorative painting for the bourgeois home was involved. The situation was further complicated by the arrival on the scene of design and mass communication��"posters, radio, the cinema and the first illustrated magazine��"which stole numerous ideas from the "fine" arts and transmitted them to a broader audience. It was this complex and lively workshop, open to the international scene that introduced the concept of modernity to Italy.
