Oil painting -> List of Painters -> Ugo Nespolo Ugo Nespolo
Career: His career as an artist dates back to the Sixties, the era of Italian Pop Art and the cradle of its future conceptual and Arte Povera movements. In the seventies, Nespolo also took over a new medium: the cinema, particularly of the experimental, artistic variety. The actors in these films were fellow artists from Lucio Fontana to Enrico Baj and Michelangelo Pistoletto. Nespolo's films have been the subject of exhibitions at prestigious institutions like the Beau Bourg in Paris, the Philadelphia Museum of Modern Art, Warsaw's Filmoteka Polska and Ferrara's Galleria Civica d’Art Moderna.
The eighties were the core of his American period. Nespolo spent part of the year in New York and made its streets, shop windows and hamburger cooks the protagonists of his paintings. |
