George Barbier a Venezia
Prorogata fino al 23 febbraio 2009 a Palazzo Fortuny la prima mostra dedicata in Italia a George Barbier (1882-1932), artista e illustratore di moda, scenografo, protagonista del movimento déco.
La mostra presenta centotrentotto illustrazioni originali provenienti dalla collezione di Palazzo Mocenigo, integrate da opere della Bibliothèque Nationale de France e di collezioni private.
L’intento è quello di indagare i differenti aspetti della creatività dell’artista, da un lato ricostruendo i contesti della sua produzione, dall’altro mettendoli in relazione con la complessità dei movimenti artistici e con le avanguardie di quegli anni, in particolare il movimento déco e l’Exposition Internazionale del Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes, tenutasi a Parigi nel 1925.
