A multi-voiced conference on the fascinating world of art publishing accompanied by an exhibition of student works is the program of the next appointment with Stories of art 2024, an exhibition curated by Gerardo de Simone, which will take place on Tuesday 28 May starting from 10 am in the premises of the Library of the Academy of Fine Arts of Carrara. The exhibition, which hosts the works of 13 publishing students, will be visible until June 4th. Conceived by Miriana Pino, teacher and head of the School of Art Graphics, with the collaboration of Michela Corsini, Director of the library of the Academy of Fine Arts of Carrara, the IMPRINT initiative also includes the participation of Gianluigi Bellucci (Academy of Fine Arts , L’Aquila), and Giovanni Timpani (Academy of Fine Arts, Perugia), experts in the field of printing art. These visionaries will explore the intersection of print, materials and new technologies, opening new perspectives and inspiring innovations in the industry. The conference will be introduced by institutional greetings from the President Prof. Antonio Passa.
IMPrinT it is the acronym for “International Multi-disciplinary Printmaking and Techniques”, but it also wants to suggest imprint and printing. The teachers of the graphics school will have the opportunity to let the students explore the ancient and new world; the latter will have the opportunity to deal with the reality and meticulousness of the research of each individual engraving artist.
“Art publishing– explains Professor Pino- it is a bridge between the imaginary and tangible reality, a means through which art spreads and is handed down over time. In this fascinating and nuanced context, we will focus on the exploration of editorial and artistic portfolios, as well as volumes of high cultural level, to fully understand the crucial role they play in the field of contemporary art.”. Art but also planning in the typographic field, seduction of the creation and combination of materials with a strong synesthetic value (papers, inks, colours) will be the topics of the conference meeting which can also be followed online“. The conference– continues Miriana Pino– it aims to be a powerful antidote to the boring monotony that is still encountered in many editions, in many books that are shrouded in the shadow of the stereotypical prefabricated modeling of word processing automation.“
