image description

The exhibition presents a group of 45 paintings and drawings that clearly illustrate the different styles that the artist used during his artistic career. Specially notable are the works that illustrate his first period in which he worked in a personal cubist style as well as in a futurist style.
Alberto Magnelli is one of the most important artists of the first half of the XX century and one of the few ones that best illustrate each and every one of the most relevant plastic postulates of this important period. In his work we can appreciate clean and arrogant colours, applied with vibrant yet controlled brushstrokes and a perfect balance between movement and harmony. He is the painter of freedom, but also of balance.
