In this in individual function, professor Annie-Paule Quinsac will existing her recently-revealed book, Divisionismo Italiano. Sguardi e prospettive 1880-1920 (Massetti Rodella Editori, 2022). The perform is a revisitation of her seminal thesis “La peinture divisionniste italienne. Origines et premiers développements 1880-1895“, talked over at the Sorbonne in 1968 and published in 1972.
Employing a transversal tactic, Quinsac analyses the sociopolitical, historical, and ideological context that characterised Italian divisionism, from Segantini’s Avemaria a trasbordo (1886, the initially Divisionist function), by the Symbolism of the 1890s, and up to the Futurist revolution, underscoring the ever-switching interpretations of critics by way of the current.
