    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The book Franco Leidi: Return is published on the occasion of the retrospective and first exhibition of the artist Franco Leidi in Italy. Born in 1933 in Milan and grown up in Genova, Leidi emigrated to Sweden in the 1970s, where he became an established artist. He never exhibited his work in his country of birth during his lifetime. The work of Franco Leidi, a self-declared communist who was profoundly influenced by his childhood experiences of World War II in fascist Italy, evolves from drawing, print and watercolour into sculpture and installation. While his late works - portraits in watercolour, often combined with collage - offer a complex iconographic reference system, his early production is characterized by multi-layered representations of power and oppression: men, women, furniture and tools are trapped in a hermetic system, in which they struggle against and exert violence upon one another. The erotic fantasies of a male subject, physical exercise and the simple beauty of a dialogue determine the play of these figures and objects; sometimes it is about life and death, sometimes about the banal being together. Franco Leidi: Return takes the artist's posthumous homecoming as an opportunity to examine his work through the lens of the present day and show its relevance to the current political and cultural context. Besides numerous black/white and colour images, the publication includes a foreword by Verena Buttmann and texts by Viana Conti, Leslie Johnson and Jörgen Svensson.…

    Klammerhft., dek. omslag, fint skick. Stockholm [1982]. 8:o. 48 s. Rikt illustrerad. Med texter av Håkan Wettre (Vad försiggår här? Studiebesök i Franco Leidis bildrum), Beate Sydhoff (Franco Leidi eller Åtbördernas fängelse), Sune Nordgren (Franco Leidis föremål), Thomas Kjellgren (Vi rustar oss för avfärd. Röster i ett kopparstick av Franco Leidi), Torsten Weimarck (Orden är för djävliga), Ilmar Laaban (Franco Leidis boningar). - - - "Franco Leidi (1933-2008) betraktades under hela sitt trettiosjuåriga konstnärsliv i Sverige som något av en främmande fågel. Invandrad från Italien 1971 förde han med sig ett bildspråk som tedde sig tämligen apart för vårt sekulariserade land. Det betraktades ofta som aningen svårsmält med dess latinska ikonografi, inte sällan kryddad med sadistiska eller sadomasochistiska inslag" (Leif Matsson).…

    Klammerhft., fint skick. Kristianstad 1980. 8:o. 20 s. inkl. omslag. Debattartiklar om offentliga konstinköp i Östergötland, översatta från italienska av Annila Sterner och Ilmar Laaban. Leidi ansåg att särskilt landstinget ignorerade viktiga delar av samtidens konstnärliga uttryck vid sina stora inköp, och framför allt "privilegierar en viss inriktning med huvudsakliga drag av positiv stämning, förgrikedom, brist på störande eller svårförståeliga inslag. Även inom en enskild konstnärs produktion faller valet nästan alltid på de mest oförargliga verken". Artiklarna, publicerade i länets dagspress, bär följande titlar: "Förslag till öppen debatt om länets offentliga konst", "Landstingets konstinköpspolitik. Censuren är ibland svår att känna igen", "'Bekvämlighetskonst' eller . Samtal efter kulturkonferens", "Hur kan man strejka mot de stora inköparna?", "Konst och monopol - apropå landstingsinköp", "Banalisera inte konsten", "-Landstinget glider undna konstdebatt", "Landstinget handlar nu i det fördolda."Viktigt att det som sagts består", "Öpet brev", "'Painted stones' visar nutidsmänniskans neuros". (Kalejdoskop-Debatt nr 1.).…
