Fausto Delle Chiaie (Roma, 1944) è un artista italiano formatosi secondo le suggestioni della Pop art, dell’Arte informale, dell’Arte povera. Fausto Delle Chiaie È autore di un Manifesto Infrazionista (1986), che spiega l’«infra-azione» come una «azione-collocazione-donazione di una o più opere, mostrate a terra da parte dell’artista, nei luoghi dell’arte, e il suo susseguente allontanamento dall’opera e dal luogo. L’Infrazione è mostrare ed evidenziare la storia vista in maniera superficiale, è il grido d’allarme artistico del malessere storico; dell’accecamento del semplice e dell’umile. L’Infrazione nasce dalla privazione della realtà visiva d’agire-pensare-fare. È la goccia che trabocca e vuole vivere con l’acqua». Delle Chiaie introduce così di nascosto le proprie opere negli spazi espositivi scegliendo dove collocarle. Nel 1987 mostra le sue opere “multifigurative” al pubblico appoggiandole sulla salita del Pincio. Il pubblico, così come egli stesso, diventa anche custode dell’opera; l’artista vive delle offerte spontanee dei visitatori. Negli anni 1987-1989 sceglierà come spazio espositivo la Galleria Sciarra, a partire dal 1989 la Piazza Augusto Imperatore. Attualmente, visti i lavori di ristrutturazione che stanno interessando Piazza Augusto Imperatore, espone davanti al Museo Napoleonico di Roma. Nel corso della sua carriera, Delle Chiaie ha esposto in Italia e all’estero; ha effettuato performance ed installazioni a Bruxelles tra il 1982 e il 1984, a Limerick …

A trip to the brandnew museum Brandhorst in Munich. Excellent masterpieces from Andy Warhol, Cy Twombly, Bruce Nauman and many other great artists. A very stilish modern art gallery.

www.vernissage.tv | With the opening of the Museum Brandhorst in Munich’s “Kunstareal”, the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen gain an institution with an impressive collection of works of modern and contemporary art. The Museum Brandhorst is the new home of the Udo and Anette Brandhorst Collection. Two focal points of emphasis give the Brandhorst Collection its character. With more than sixty paintings, drawings, and sculptures by the American artist Cy Twombly (born 1928), it offers the greatest overview of Twombly’s development outside the USA. The whole upper floor is dedicated to Cy Twombly and shows, among other works the Lepanto and Roses-cycles. The second focal point is Andy Warhol, who is represented with over 100 pieces, among them two huge “Last Supper” and “Oxidation” paintings. The collection features other positions with artists such as Sigmar Polke, Georg Baselitz, Gerhard Richter, Eric Fischl, Mario Merz, Franz West, Katharina Fritsch, Christopher Wool, Robert Gober, Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, and others. A recent acquisition has been the multimedia work Western Union Small Boats by Isaac Julien. The new museum is located in Munich’s art district with the Alte Pinakothek, the Neue Pinakothek, the Pinakothek der Moderne, the Glyptotek, and the Antiquities Collection. It has been designed by the Berlin architects Sauerbruch Hutton and is clad in 36′000 glazed ceramic rods in 23 different colors. The Museum Brandhorst features innovative lighting technology …
