ISBN: 9788890821806
Description: Codroipo Passariano: Villa Manin di Passariano, 2012. 29cm., hardcover, 341pp. illus., most in color. Exhibition held at Villa Manin, Passariano. Summary: Giambattista Tiepolo and Villa Manin in Passariano. Together they evoke an extraordinary event: the exhibition staged in 1971 on the 200th anniversary of the painter's death, the event that was to mark the turning point in his critical legacy. Years later, the organization "Azienda Speciale Villa Manin" and the government of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region have chosen that same venue to mount a monographic exhibition that canvasses the painter's elaborate artistic career. In the light of the many studies conducted since then, this challenging exhibition enables a more extensive and detailed assessment of Tiepolo's works, as it documents his stylistic evolution and identifies several key moments in his relations with his patrons. The exhibition surveys single paintings while at the same time commemorating the main clients and intellectuals - such as Scipione Maffei, Francesco Algarotti, the Zanetti cousins - who supported the artist right from the beginning and influenced his cultural development. Thanks to the extremely demanding restoration conducted specifically in view of this exhibition, it is now possible to appreciate works which would otherwise have hardly been viewable due to their location, as well as works which were at risk of being compromised due to recent, traumatic events.
