Alberto Magnelli

Alberto Magnelli was the pioneer of abstraction and prompted a new approach to this artist and analysis of his work. This book helps to discover how the young Magnelli (who painted his first painting in 1907) first found his way between Cubism and Futurism and his binding of friendship in 1913 with Balla, Severini, Boccioni and Carra. The next years after, during a trip to Paris he became friends with Picasso, Leger, Archipenko... but also with Max Jacob and Guillaume Apollinaire. Rejecting the fascist drift of Italy, he moved to France in 1931 and registered with the Stones, among the major initiators of abstraction to ratings Kandinsky, Arp or Hartung, who become close friends.
