Collection: Guerra Tonino

(Santarcangelo di Romagna 1920 - Santarcangelo di Romagna 2012)

Tonino Guerra is universally known as one of the greatest screenwriters in world cinema (collaborator of Federico Fellini, Michelangelo Antonioni, and Theo Angelopoulos) and an extraordinary poet. His multifaceted creativity also found a fundamental pillar in visual art, particularly in author graphics.
His graphic innovation, expressed in etching and aquatint works, lies in the union between popular tradition and a modernist sensibility: his prints combine a clear and precise graphic mark with vibrant color applications, representing everyday scenes and embodying in images the verses of his poems.
