Digital art pioneer Laurence Gartel will be in Spoleto on Tuesday 23 May at 16.30 on the occasion of the presentation of the Warhol vs Gartel. Hyp Pop exhibition catalogue. The meeting will take place at Palazzo Bufalini in Piazza Duomo.
Featured guests include Spoleto mayor Fabrizio Cardarelli, Head of Culture at the City of Spoleto Camilla Laureti, MetaMorfosi chairman Pietro Folena, presidente di Metaforfosi and art critic Gianluca Marziani.
The Warhol vs Gartel. Hyp Pop exhibition at Palazzo Bufalini has brought pop-art in Spoleto, introducing one of the most stimulating artistic confrontations of the recent past. Its undisputed master Andy Warhol (1928 Pittsburgh – 1987 New York) and Laurence Gartel (1956 New York), who redifined pop-art in its “digital format” digitale, face each other in an unprecedented “challenge” at the MAG MetaMorfosi Art Gallery in Piazza Duomo, with fifty original works by both artists.
The exhibition, produced and organized by Associazione MetaMorfosi in collaboration with Spirale di Idee and Artelite, and is curated by Lu.C.C.A. (Lucca Center of Contemporary Art) director Maurizio Vanni, with the support of the City of Spoleto and of Regione Umbria, displays the confrontation of two kindred worlds, i.e. Pop Art and Digital Art, which profoundly transformed the common sense of Art since the 1970s.
BIOGRAPHY. Laurence Gartel was born on 5 June 1956 in New York, NY, and since he was very young he showed an interest for visual arts. He studied at the High School of Music and Art, attended courses at the Fashion Institute of Technology and at the Art Student League, obtaining a diploma from the School of Visual Arts in New York. In 1975 he frequented the Media Study in Buffalo, where he met videoart shaman Nam June Paik, with whom he started a collaboration and started his career in the field of electronics. It is at the Media Study that he gets in touch with the first system for video elaboration, a Ruth-Etra Synthetizer, that creates bending effects on three axes, and a Paik-Abe Colorizer, that gives colour to black-and-white images. Yet those were no good times for good-quality video printing, therefore he had to take pictures of his monitor to save his works. In 1978 he moves to the Experimental Television Center in New York, where he starts working with a Paik-Abe Wobulator – a device that can distort images in trigonometrically calculated waves – and with a first digital computer, the Cromeco Z-2, featuring a floppy disk unit with a capacity of 2 Kilobytes. In1981, Gartel starts working on an Atron Studio Computer, that could display millions of colours: this gave him the opportunity to create multiple copies of the same image and to draw like he hed never been able to before. In 1984 the first Apple Macintosh came to light, featuring the Mac Paint software: after years of research on colours, he returns to black and white and the theory of graphics applied to art renews out of necessity: freehand-drawn signs and symbols blend with digital images in a composition that shows no chiaroscuro and is strongly pixelled. To reproduce these works, Gartel uses an Imagewriter dot matrix printer, but the effect is far from what he wished, so he keeps on taking pictures of the prints. 1985 is the year the Commodore Amiga 1000 was introduced, the first desktop computer that could manage 32 distinct colours. In combination with the Deluxe Paint software, it is considered the first computer for digital art production. In the same period, Xerox starts marketing the Art Color Ink-Jet printer, that combined with a clay base, gives colours a pastel-like vibration. Finally could Gartel fully exalt his digital images, printing them directly without need to photograph them, using the computer as a full-blown art tool. That was when he started working with Warhol, showing him how the new Commodore-Amiga system worked.

The Spoleto section of CAI – Italian Alpine Club, in the frame of the project Oltre il Monteluco (Italian for Beyond Monteluco), has organized a series of video projections on the themes: Alpinism and Adventure, Peoples and Traditions, Culture and Voyage.
Projections will take place at the Sala Pegasus, on all Tuesdays in May 2017.

On the occasion of the 2017 World Environment Day, UNEP (United Nations Environment Programme) has proposed to cast green light on historical buildings and iconic sites, to celebrate this year’s theme Connecting with Nature; the New York Empire State Building, the Niagara Falls in Canada and the Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, are but some of the sites that will be enlightened in green.
The City of Spoleto has joined the initiative, to underline the old connection between Man and Nature, a feature of Spoleto’s area.
Monday 5 June the churches of St. Peter and St. Pontianus will be the object of a special green lighting, while a “Bat Night” will take place at the Giro della Rocca: expert researchers at the Studio Naturalistico Hyla will lead participants in search of bats, sole existing flying mammals.
A special “bat detector” will be used, to help participating humans detect the ultrasounds produced by bats, to then identify species, and learn about their biology and habits.
The appointment is on Monday 5 June at 20.30 in Piazza della Libertà. “Spoletocammina” will also join the initiative.

Two special appointments this week at the Sala Pegasus, to meet the Italian protagonists at the Cannes Film Festival 70th edition, that took place from 17 to 28 May, 2017.
Wednesday 7 June at 21.00, director Roberto De Paolis and the protagonist of Cuori puri (Pure Hearts), selected for the 49th Quinzaine des Réalisateurs, will be present.
The film is the love story of Agnese and Stefano: Agnese, 18 yo, lives with her hard and devout mother; she goes to church and is about to make a chastity vow until marriage; Stefano, 25 yo, a former rascal now working as a keeper of a parking lot in a mall, bordering with a huge Romaní encampment.
Saturday 10 June, also at 21.00, it’s the turn of directors Fabio Grassadonia and Antonio Piazza who will present Sicilian Ghost Story.
Taken from Marco Mancassola’s Un cavaliere bianco, the film is about the abduction and murder of Giuseppe Di Matteo (melt in acid in 1996 at the age of 14 to shut his father’s mouth in a time when his father was a justice collaborator) and the tenacity of a school mate of his who was in love with the killed and refused to surrender to the prevalent code of silence.
Both meetings will be led by cinema expert Roberto Lazzerini.
The two events are organized in collaboration with Cinéma Sala Pegasus and Maia Associazione Culturale.

Prima della prima (Before the premiere) will be performed on Friday 9 June at 9 pm and Saturday 10 June at 6 pm at Palazzo Collicola (San Domenico entrance). The show will conclude the 16th year of activity of the Teodelapio theater school, a small but consolidated institution, born in 2000 with the patronage of the Municipality of Spoleto, on the initiative of actors Pietro Biondi and Anna Leonardi.
The play is built around young actors that will show the work done with their teachers, Anna Leonardi And Claudio Trionfi, a work on the essence of the language of the scene: the actor’s gesture and voice.
The challenge for students will be to catch the attention of the public by leveraging only on their own resources, refined with a serious and constant workout, played in a game of fun and entertainment.
Entry is free, but places are limited.
Refreshment will be provided.
