The Gallery presents Tondinelli 14 to 30 October 2009, the exhibition of Felipe Hodgson, Spanish artist working in Santa Cruz de Tenerife-titled "His soft skin" by Costanzo Costantini and Floriana Tondinelli with an essay by Francisco Aznar.
"Felipe Hodgson in this exhibition gives us a part of itself, in its entirety and without reservation. Here, being the artist Felipe, rests in the same skin of his paintings and his mind is confused with life in them guess.
It is not usually the work of an artist is so closely linked to the perception that he has in the world. All the work of Felipe Hodgson, every step up his long journey, says the experience of reality, as well as his continuous and uninterrupted discussion with it on a daily basis. Stubbornly took the challenge of comparing his personal identity with reality, is the difference and differentiation that affirms its identity. The essence of his work lies more in the analysis of structures and relationships that the mere fact that the same objective. Each painting finds its way both in times of tension in the position of elements and mutual articulations, such as placing a distinctly lyrical and spiritual context. [....]
What Felipe Hodgson offers us, is essentially the testimony in separate fragments of intimate emotion of someone who always materialize the result of the comparison that is in him, between the conceptual and sensory input, indicating a dynamic prassiologica based in the principle of "thought-action". One can say that the work of Felipe has its origins the same characteristic features, which meet throughout the structured path of his creative work in different combinations and floating, both in formal as well as artistic. Characteristic that defines and supports artistic relevance and timeless design that conditions of this exhibition "

The exhibition curated by Floriana Tondinelli a text Dalmazio Ambrosioni present to the public the latest research Woodpecker Art the Light-Art. Woodpecker in this series of works especially for the exhibition Roman confronts a new means of expression: the artificial light; technique that involved several contemporary artists, but he sees the poetic composition of woodpecker use of all original work live in keeping the element of light and style segments, technology and traditional art. In the work of woodpecker, the light grows and raises the ratio of the volume and position in space. Light and color are enhanced when the forms become objects and revived light and color through the mobility space. If the geometry and perspective are, so to speak their part, there is a tonal element that is essential, and is light. The light that seems to breathe on the surface that drives the movement, who plays for the evocation. A light, delicate, refined, thin, impalpable, yet invoked in different grades. Every action, even minor, creates a variation, a reflection by selecting different tonal harmony with which applies color on surfaces. The remarkable stylistic diversity among the various provisions of color, leading to a wide range of light drafts, which vary according to the concepts put in place and expressed specific stylistic and generic formulations of way. The artist to better express this essential linked to artificial light has developed a system that allows work to be light, through wiring, terminals and the chip placed in the back of each work. The system is easily replaceable with almost zero current consumption. The LEDs have a lifetime of 50,000 hours, with an average use of about 8 hours for a period of 40-50 years.

The painting of Teresa Picornell the viewer to dream with your eyes open, subjects and elements of his works relate to an indeterminate reciprocity, as if each were absorbed in the contemplation of himself, as if their own life. This was the result of ongoing research in analyzing the artist's own inner journey that expresses and communicates to the viewer looking through his works. Silence is a place to gather where they can be in touch with ourselves where face to reflect where Teresa Picornell express silence in his works express a shade of color in pictorial composition, in a subject, in one dimension. The artist is confronted constantly with the major themes of the human soul. For each artist create a work is a moment of confrontation with himself and the canvas with colors, express. In the works of Teresa Picornell all this happens in a balance and a strong expression of communication. "[....] Teresa Picornell tries to paint the silence, the divine music of silence which spoke Boris Pasternak, through the magic of soft colors, suffused evanescent (Costanzo Costantini).

To mark its eighth anniversary Tondinelli Gallery presents a prestigious exhibition devoted to Mark Kostabi, artist and composer, born in California, divided its activities between New York and Rome.
"Celebration" the title of the show because it falls in its 20 years of activity Kostabiworld, its factory is located in New York and is organized by the criteria of industrial efficiency. The exhibition, curated by Maria Stella Brown and Floriana Tondinelli, has about 22 works, including 14 oils and 8 silkscreens created between 1990 and 2007 giving a comprehensive overview of Kostabi art and highlight the two worlds of ' Artist: America 60s and tradition italiana.E 'in this also shows the composer Kostabi. In fact the background music will welcome the visitor is signed by the artist. This is his second CD "Songs for Sumera." Celebration Roman, then, that for Kostabi, the largest American museums like the Metropolitan and the Guggenheim - through Rome at the National Museum of Modern Art in 2006 and the Cloister of Bramante - arrives at the Galleria Tondinelli.
Kostabi, born in 1960 and arrived in New York City in 1982, son of newly introduced art by Andy Warhol, that of democratic art for everyone. From the viewpoint stylistic Kostabi Warhol and have little in common even though both are related to the figurative artists. If Warhol used to support photographic printing technology, the replicas of an image in the same work, Kostabi loves tradition. Often adopts the Renaissance perspective, does not use mechanical aids and practice a painting inspired by the great examples of the past: the chiaroscuro of Caravaggio, the gradient of Perugino, the surrealism of Magritte, De Chirico's melancholy, bringing them in his works still so different from sources of inspiration. If Warhol is an iconic, Kostabi is narrative and its constantly changing shapes and compositions used in always the same type of diagram: a mannequin silhouette with white thick volume. Asexual, faceless, hairless, may suggest the dummy De Chirico or, from a certain perspective, and properly reviewed, the puppets of Keith Haring. Kostabi is also the author of the beautiful bronze dedicated to Pope John Paul II and donated to the town of Velletri, in the Province of Rome. There are three bronze angels in heaven happily seem to carry the Pope's favorite.

Gallery Tondinelli waits for the inauguration on April 23 from 18.30 to 20.30. It will also cheer the artist who with his piano music.

The Gallery presents Tondinelli from 7 November to 3 December 2007 the solo exhibition of Haakon Gullvaag, the most famous and important Norwegian painter, entitled "Selected Works" by Elisabeth Hartmann Krafft and Floriana Tondinelli with a text by Carlo Fabrizio Carli.
"In his country, Gullvaag, though his painting is far from reassuring, with amazing results that can sometimes seem even more immediate sensitivity to irritants, is a kind of artist official portraits which have been given - usually moreover, played by our very personal forms - the kings and major political authorities, as well as the finance and culture.
What motivates interest in the frameworks of Gullvaag? First, technical quality, remarkable, his painting, developed and refined during three decades of activity, which, alone, is to fix its magisterial stature. Gullvaag is an artist perpetually unsatisfied with his paintings, entrusted to slow processing, which can last, sometimes even years, during which the paintings are repeatedly taken in hand, changed, supplemented. Not infrequently, it is the occasion of an exhibition that leads to detachment from the artist works.
The other reason of attraction consists of an imaginative dimension and a very personal language in which the artist conveys experiences autobiography (of his adolescence, of raising children) and cross-references and citations, perhaps unpredictable, artists most loved (Vermeer , Goya, Manet, Pollock, Bacon), but also of their earlier pictures, ghosts of memory, and even from daily lessons to witness, albeit filtered and at first sight unexpected, a strong civil commitment.
Gullvaag boy was in fact heavily involved with the Vietnam War, he built an emblem of a state of blind violence and cruel, prepared to attack and kill, which today goes beyond that particular historic event to overshadow the equally blind and cruel violent conflicts of our day.
Those gnomes in camouflage and helmets, armed with machine guns, those goblins lined with tiny steel plates as clean or military coats, who filled the seats of Gullvaag, form of that attitude, a clear testimony and declared.
Painting, that of the Norwegian master, clearly mark surreal (sometimes perceives echoes, introjected and all reinterpreted in a personal touch, the stroke of a Wavy Dali, sometimes you some element evokes a memory none Bosch, perhaps with horsehair and that egg suspended horizontally in mid air, like a canvas Territory), but that qualifies as peremptorily figural. Yet these same canvases exhibit a strong component for brevity, we will define informally and, more specifically, refers to Action Painting American: smudges, drips, gestural strokes of nature.
But most striking is that, especially in portraits, those transitions, those losses and focus, while, quell'afflosciarsi of vital substance but also that the disposable probe into the inmost secrets of existence, referring to the lesson capital a Francis Bacon. Of vaguely Baconian can also bestiary Gullvaag: lambs, horses, calves, often summarized only fleshless skull, in turn entrusted to fade pictorially. The fondness for animals early age witness, beyond surreal brand of aggression to physical features, and the persistence of a painter in the sense of cosmic piety.
Not only the art of painters inspired Gullvaag (suffice it to mention Paraphrase of Goya's favorite tribute artist), but also great writers like Oscar Wilde, who is another great tutelary deity of Culture, Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen . The second case Gullvaag can draw inspiration from the same likeness of the writer, prepared in a large sequence variants (and was the theme of a show set in Teatro Argentina in Rome) or create a gallery of course fictional characters in a of his most famous, free and airy: Peer Gynt [....] '(Carlo Fabrizio Carli).
The figurative series, a rich paraphrase of known images of Ibsen has become a new and original work of art. These portraits were on show at the Teatro Argentina in Rome in March 2006 at Palazzo Chigi in Ariccia in June 2006. Were later exhibited at the National Library in Dublin.

Haakon Gullvaag received the prestigious commission to run the full length portrait of King Harald V of Norway and Queen Sonja of Norway for the Oslo Town Hall, Royal Palace and the Embassy of Norway in London.

The Gallery presents Tondinelli 12 to 27 September 2007, the exhibition of Felipe Hodgson, Spanish artist working in Santa Cruz, Tenerife, entitled "El Color" by Costanzo Costantini and Floriana Tondinelli with a text by Fernando Castro Borrego.
"There's a place for landscape painting in the new system of the arts that is emerging in the era of the disappearance of the landscape? This question may seem rhetorical, was an affirmative answer for Felipe Hodgson. Naturalism has become an aesthetic category outlawed in contemporary art. Impressionism was the last natural movement that once was hedonistic. Attempts to propose it again in the twentieth century, like the one that attacked Pierre Bonnard accentuate the hedonists, they did that would change that opinion against the criticism, especially from the avant imposed a model of representation is essential.
[....] There has always been landscape painting, and nothing appears to be disappearing. Even we can risk the hypothesis that before the object disappears, nature, that its representation (the countryside). Hypothesis is left, but what can we do, we already know that nostalgia produces these paradoxical situations. [....] Felipe Hodgson is an architect as well as being a painter. [....] When he paints seem to want to reproduce the existence of a paradise that urban culture stubbornly denies man. This is the right to see the paradise and to live imaginatively in him. This is the meaning of his work. Who can determine that hedonism implicit in this proposal is something bad without running simultaneously in a form of Puritanism difficult to defend. It is better to continue to mortify with artistic productions that have uprooted the field of aesthetic pleasure? Conceptual experiences that never reach the level of speculative philosophy and are absolutely sterile soil for political action. Paint a piece of paradise can awaken the conscience conservative better than the cold complaints made in a video installation or, if really what interests us is that you save a little nature that remains to be saved "(Fernando Castro Borrego).

The exhibition has the virtue of illustrating a Moravia novel portrayed by Dominic Colantoni in all its forms and in all poses, full-length, fragmented, disguised as Beelzebub, women's long hair scarlet mouth and eyes rimmed in black- blue, even by Hitler.

This shows again that Moravia was presented in Rome in the early eighties in the presence of the writer to the site Toninelli Gallery Piazza di Spagna, is revived at a distance of 25 years at the Centenary of the birth of Moravia.

"[....] Colantoni Domenico, the Italian painter and filmmaker best known abroad and who portrayed characters on the international scene, including the late filmmaker Robert Altman's brilliant (the portrait was exhibited at Macro in Rome), has known Alberto Moravia, Alberto Moravia, especially the secret, much better than others, even better than they had known his women. He maintained a special relationship with the Roman writer, had portrayed in all its forms [....] Renato Barilli wrote in the exhibition "The meeting with a great writer Dominic Colantoni as Moravia is not those accidental and occasional arising from a client other than external. The existence of a relationship far more internal staff is witnessed by the same obsession with the artist insisted on producing not only a portrait of the writer, but a series fed. Besides, who knows the two even in passing knows that this relationship continues even in private life, where Colantoni never tires of observing closely, to pursue what seems now to have become his favorite prey. In the opening pages of the catalog was reproduced the profile that had spattered Colantoni Moravia in 1982. Colantoni had also shot the film on private Moravia, on sexual and erotic writer.
In the context of events organized by the Municipality of Rome on the occasion of the centenary of the birth of the author of indifferent, this exhibition represents a unique document and explosive, that should not leave anyone indifferent, or at least none of those who love the truth and not fiction and the truth and not the official rhetoric "(Costanzo Costantini).

The Gallery presents Tondinelli from 9 May to 8 June 2007 shows Fellini's painting and the artists he loved, edited by Costanzo Costantini and Floriana Tondinelli.
"[....] Federico Fellini had begun to draw and make sketches, caricatures and cartoons since adolescence. Fifteen-sixteen years had executed the caricatures of the Musketeers Tabletop Verrucchio camp, the village about twenty kilometers from Rimini that in 1936 the number had been published only "La Diana" Opera Balilla's hometown. In the same year had opened with the painter Demos Bonini "the artist's studio, which stood near the cathedral and in which were caricatures on order, even at home.
Tell later Fellini: "Since childhood I was fascinated by the figure of the painter and there was a moment in adolescence when I thought seriously that I made myself a painter. The artists, cartoonists, painters, even those who Madonnas painted on sidewalks, enchanted me. "This will be my job," he said. I did not think I would be dedicated to cinema, I'd be an actor, screenwriter, director. [....]
Over Demos Bonini, another of his teachers was Joseph Zanini, aka Nino Za, who this summer made the caricatures of the characters talking nonsense on the terraces of the Grand Hotel, that Fellini saw as an enchanted palace, symbol of luxury and pomp, East Fabulous [....]. Nino Za, who had the privilege of making the cartoons, had become for him a legendary figure, but could get to know until later in Rome, establishing a friendship with him that lasts for life, like that with Rinaldo Geleng, the painter of German origin who had known the same period in the capital.
Cinema and painting
[....] Fellini thought that the cinema is a language specific, autonomous, independent, that is unlike any other language, nor to the theater, its literature, its music, unless the painting. He used to say: "Cinema is an art that has nothing to do with the other arts. But it is genetically related to painting, because one or the other can not exist without the light. The image is light . The heart of everything, both the cinema and painting is light. In the film, the light is before the subject of the story, characters, is the light that expresses what a filmmaker wants to say. In painting the Light is the first theme, the palette of colors, is the light that expresses what we want to be a painter. Some critics said that I am a director "painting", but could not give me a praise largest [....] " .
Fellini, perhaps unaware that Gore Vidal, American writer also expert on cinema, considered him an exceptional artist and painter, going so far to define his film an extraordinary art gallery.
In addition, Rinaldo, and Antonello Geleng Giuliano, who had long worked for him and were part of his emotional universe, there are many modern artists, in varying degrees, Fellini admired or loved for creative affinity, or considered of very talented in possession of a personal style, of its signature.

Among those he considered of very talented and in possession of a personal style, of its signature, Trubbiani, Mafai, Roses, Campigli, Guttuso Mitoraj, Sauces, Vespignani, Scordia Fallani Anna Salvatore Schifano [.... ] "(Costanzo Costantini).
