In 1972 the Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna in Turin celebrated the work of Fausto Melotti (Rovereto, 1901 - Milan, 1986) with a large retrospective that consecrated him as one of the masters of Italian art. More than fifty years later, as part of SECONDA RISONANZA, the GAM is dedicating a new major exhibition to the artist, organised in collaboration with Fondazione Fausto Melotti in Milan, and curated by Chiara Bertola and Fabio Cafagna. The exhibition traces Melotti’s entire career from his abstract beginnings in the 1930s to his artistic maturity.
