Zusammenfassung:Carlo Carrà, the Italian avant-garde Modernist artist is renowned for his integral role in both Futurist and Metaphysical painting. At the centre of the exhibition and this catalogue are Carrà's paintings, many from public and private collections and rarely shown publicly. The artist?s Metaphysical painting developed from his study of the Italian Renaissance painters Giotto and Uccello. It was in their works, with few focal points and horizontals, that Carrà felt the artist's soul could be seen. The archetypal compositional techniques Carrà admired in these works led to his break with the dynamism of Futurism and to his creation of paintings with a stillness and form, which he termed a "condensation of expression". Typified by dream-like views and unexpected juxtapositions of elements, such as mannequins in eerie arcaded piazzas, the Metaphysical style of painting was led by Carrà and Giorgio de Chirico. Although their investigations initially developed independently from one another, their discourse began in 1917 when together they formally established the principles of 'Pittura Metafisica'.
