Mimmo Rotella: Verbale N.2847
Text by Tiziano Scarpo Published by Charta/Italian Factory.
Edited by Lorenzo Pavolini and Alessandro Riva. Text by Tiziano Scarpa. Still vital and experimental in his late eighties, Mimmo Rotella, the Nouveau Réaliste legend who pioneered the art of effacage, in which he partially cancels images from popular magazines, here collects 30 of those works, many of them published for the first time. Satirical texts by hip Italian novelist Tiziano Scarpa, some 40 years his junior, confirm the continued relevance of Rotella's work.
