1950s Drawing n.1

Reproduction of Giuseppe Picone drawings made from 1956 to 1958. Limited series (50 copies).

From the Archive of Giuseppe Picone, famous artist from 1950s to 2008, the year of his death, a new production takes life with the aim to save, re-edit and re-propose his art and his creativity. Tempera drawings by 50 years old are recovered in a limited series by the three leading ladies of his life, as a tribute to Giuseppe Picone. They invite us to read the poetry of his extra-ordinary art.

Sign and colours are the key elements of his production, as shown in these drawings.
He loved to work on the meaningful and not on the meaning, on objects and not on their names, on drawings and not on what they expressed. So he was a creator, not of words but of the meanings they had.
