Nel segno di
HANS HARTUNG
The exhibition Nel segno di Hans Hartung curated by Andrea Ingenito will be held at the gallery Andrea Ingenito Contemporary Art in Naples from December 12th 2014 to January 31st 2015 .
On dispaly about 15 works of Hartung, from 1957 to 1989, which travel through the artistic production of the artist. The exhibited acrylics cover the artist’s experiences from the elegant signs of the ‘60s to the explosion of matter of the late ‘80s, when in the house-studio in Antibes, now seat of the Foundation, the Maestro had found a new expository energy. Many of the paintings have been exhibited in important public exhibitions. On display also a serie of rare litographic works of the late ‘50s and a series of etchings from 1970.
The artist
Exponent of the European Abstractism and Informal, Hans Hartung (1904-1989), German by birth French naturalized citizen, met all of the twentieth century avantgarde maintaining constantly an independent position from those which emerged on the scene, from time to time, now codified under historicized names as De Stijl, Cubism, Lyrical Abstraction.
Very balanced mix of “genius and intemperance”, the artistic expression of Hans Hartung has been acclaimed over the years but probably it still needs a complete crtical review and further achievment on the art market.
