Great anthological exhibition: "Montagne: l'Epica e l'Incanto" (Mountains: epic and charm) -

This exhibition requires wide spaces because it has the whole theme, stories of women and men full of passion, with only one vision in their eyes and heart: the Mountain.
It requires wide spaces, completed with the right "hanging".
Better with closed displays
Video equipment appreciated.
The drawn tale of some episodes about the conquest of great mountains.
Old histories: strong links between men, rocks and glaciers.
The card receives the pencils with cotton softness.
Contrasts are mitigated and elements get clear, if seen nearby.
Here and there, the dark spaces of unknown and fear explode

LA PATAGONIA DI CASIMIR0 (Casimiro Ferrari's Patagonia)
Min. 5 plates
Casimiro Ferrari - Walter Bonatti - Carlo Mauri - Giuseppe "Det" Alippi - Cesare Giudici
--> See package 5
Each of the characters and of the places that have contributed to tell Casimiro's history has left a trace, little or big, stressed or more discreet in the tale, mixing her history to that of the protagonist of the biography. In the end making true John Donne's sentence, put by Hemingway on the door of one of the books of my adolescence:
"No man is an Island, entire of itself. (.) Therefore,
send not to know for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for thee".
Measures: Max 70x100 cm (those measures without frame: please add 15 cm)

Sasso Cavallo: A piece of nature, that with time changed into culture. A totem with his people (not necessarily the ones born at his feet but the ones that have been attracted for mysterious reasons), its priests, its singers, the elite (the prince, the knights...), the fairs and, above all, the only one that acquired the permit to relation himself in an intimate and secret way with the rocky obelisk, the Great Wizard, Det Alippi. A limestone monument, good to make legends and to feed myths. To make thinking fly, entwist reflections and give long sights and deep thoughts to its followers.
(from the foreword by Roberto Mantovani)
Various measure: Max 50x50 cm

IL MAGO DELLE GRANDI PARETI
--> Other paintings are visible in the cycle page: Sass Cavall - Giuseppe "Det" Alippi tra storia e leggenda.
(Sass Cavall - Giuseppe "Det" Alippi between history and legend.)
The cycle, adapted on the main Dolomites peaks, is an enquiry about the connection between man-death-mountain. The alpinists that appear, generally by themselves, lived with that mountain some extremely meaningful moments of their existence.
All these histories are inspired to Dino Buzzati's obituaries published on the "Corriere della Sera" newspaper, dedicated to these men, but above all to his magic relationship to the mountains.
