Giosetta Fioroni: L'Argento
Giosetta Fioroni (b. 1932) was the only female member of the Scuola di Piazza del Popolo, an artist group that emerged in Rome during the 1960s around the famous Galleria La Tartaruga. Working primarily with silver enamel paint and graphite, Fioroni developed a unique aesthetic featuring largely female subjects taken from 1960s Italian media, as well as family photographs. Accompanying Giosetta Fioroni: L’Argento, the artist’s first solo exhibition in North America, this publication features over seventy drawings, thirty paintings, ten illustrated books and related ephemera. Scholarly essays and newly translated historical texts shed light on Fiorini’s unique contribution to post-World War II Italian art and also the overall Pop aesthetic.
