Responding to the societal transformation of the 20th century, his work combines modernity, tradition and popular motifs. Volpi drew inspiration from the vernacular architecture of São Paulo; European avant-gardes including Matisse, Mondrian and Albers; and Italian artists such as Uccello, Carrà and Morandi. This richly illustrated publication allows for a fresh discovery of Volpi's works, which are products of a methodical and meditative process, and characterized by his two-dimensional geometric patterns and the use of color as a structural element. The corresponding exhibition also celebrates the 150th anniversary of Italian immigration to Brazil, highlighting the influence of Italian cultures on Brazilian artistic language, while recognizing Volpi as a superb colorist and master craftsman. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8.8 x 6.8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 11, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45806578467013,"sku":"9788867496402","price":43.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/BkcMX_QCav9788867496402.webp?v=1770919073","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/alfredo-volpi-lucca-sao-paulo-1896-1988-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
