Description
An account of the resource
<p>Franco Guerzoni was born in 1948 in Modena. In the early seventies he uses photography as a means of representation. In 1972 his <em>Frescoes</em>, and in '73 his <em>Archaeolog</em>y, followed by <em>Anthropology</em>, are researches related to aspects of cultural stratification and the idea of “old” as a loss. In the eighties, he's engaged in the construction of large wall papers that explore the idea of an imaginary geography, Travel cards, Grotesque and The Forgotten Wall, at the end of the same years he worked on the surface intended as depth. Presents <em>Decorations and ruins</em> in a room at the Venice Biennale in 1990. Since then continues through the great cycles of works, his investigation on time and on the poetics of ruin, a kind of archeology without restoration. Since 2006, following the recovery of a body of works done with the use of photography by the author in the seventies, presents at GAM in Turin <em>Landscapes powder</em>, his research supported by a real work of reunion or transfer ranging from painting to the wall itself, chasing the dream that joins previous attempts aimed at the creation of a kind of bas-relief, constant in all his work, towards the idea of a slight sculpture, daughter of the new attention to the wall. So the <em>Forgotten Wall</em> becomes the real privileged place for his most current work.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p><em>Stelle e lucciole</em> was conceived between 1969 and the early Seventies, and it is one of the first episodes of the prolific collaboration between Franco Guerzoni and Luigi Ghirri, which produced interesting and relevant results. These photographs revolve around the intention of the two artists and friends to capture in a single frame the starry sky and the bright trails of light left behind by fireflies. Indeed, Ghirri shot many takes of that picture, but he was not able to achieve the results he was aiming for due to technical issues. Guerzoni donated these photographs to MORE. To define this project as unrealized would not be fully correct; therefore, as Guerzoni himself agreed, it should be rather described as an unresolved, interrupted project, unable to achieve its expected outcome.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/2702/1/Franco%20Guerzoni_lucciole.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more.</a></p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>The two figures “I remember I have seen a mosque inside the Amun Temple in Luxur” and “Development of the decoration of an Etruscan vase according to a nineteenth-century portrayal” were to be part of a broader and more structured project, centred on the theme of the potential image, a topic very dear to the author. The original project envisaged the presence of a third figure representing a mental image, merely potential, hence rendered in a writing. The conceptual nature of such an image would have not allowed any visual depiction. The presence of a fourth figure, devoted to the utopian possibility of exposing films with the only <em>power of thoughts</em>, was merely a working hypothesis. This work, of a cleary conceptual nature, was therefore to be centered on the theme of the “potential image”. Such topic takes on great importance for both the artist's production and the cultural context in which this project was conceived.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/2704/1/Franco%20Guerzoni_Sovrapposizioni%20culturali.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more.</a></p>

<p>In this drawing Franco Guerzoni speculates - with a theoretical exercise nearer to utopia than to a real project - about the possibility of realising flying carpets. On this drawing we can find, together with shapes and images by Guerzoni himself, a poetry written by his friend Adriano Malavasi.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/2703/1/Franco%20Guerzoni_Tappeti%20volanti.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more.</a></p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>Franco Guerzoni was born in 1948 in Modena. In the early seventies he uses photography as a means of representation. In 1972 his <em>Frescoes</em>, and in '73 his <em>Archaeolog</em>y, followed by <em>Anthropology</em>, are researches related to aspects of cultural stratification and the idea of “old” as a loss. In the eighties, he's engaged in the construction of large wall papers that explore the idea of an imaginary geography, Travel cards, Grotesque and The Forgotten Wall, at the end of the same years he worked on the surface intended as depth. Presents <em>Decorations and ruins</em> in a room at the Venice Biennale in 1990. Since then continues through the great cycles of works, his investigation on time and on the poetics of ruin, a kind of archeology without restoration. Since 2006, following the recovery of a body of works done with the use of photography by the author in the seventies, presents at GAM in Turin <em>Landscapes powder</em>, his research supported by a real work of reunion or transfer ranging from painting to the wall itself, chasing the dream that joins previous attempts aimed at the creation of a kind of bas-relief, constant in all his work, towards the idea of a slight sculpture, daughter of the new attention to the wall. So the <em>Forgotten Wall</em> becomes the real privileged place for his most current work.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>Since the beginning, the research of Franco Guerzoni was up-to-date and full of original ideas, even if in line with the most interesting experiences developing in Italy and abroad. Indeed, considering visual arts, that period was particularly rich and full of innovative solutions on both the conceptual and expressive level.</p>
<p>This project, the fourth donated by the author to MoRE, dates back to a period between 1968 and 1969, when Guerzoni, then in his early twenties and at the end of his education, abandoned the traditional painting technique and started doing researches in the avant-garde, especially around Duchamp.</p>
<p>He was spontaneously attracted by the most important international researches, such as the American Land Art and the Italian Arte Povera. These interests reflect in some of his works, not always realised, such as this project donated to MoRE. The concept behind the project was quite simple: Guerzoni wanted to bring inside the closed space of an art gallery a natural occurrence, the rainbow. The project included, as shown in the sketch, a field sprayer machine in the center of the room. It would have sprayed water, playing with the artificial light effects.</p>
<p>The author, thinking about that installation – also with the collaboration of Luigi Ghirri, friend and companion of many art adventures – took some photographs in the countryside. These study series of water splashes investigated the nature of the rainbow and its visual perception. These conceptual photographs are the only evidence of the project. It remained unrealized due technical difficulties but also because it was more theoretical than realizable. The theme to bring the nature inside the culture was particularly strong in that period; Guerzoni itself thought to produce a black rose, as symbolic synthesis of the two elements.<br /><a href="https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/3245/1/Guerzoni_Fontana%20in%20galleria.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Read more.</a></p>
