edited by Mario Guderzo and Carlo SalaThe human and artistic story of Gino Rossi (Venice, 1884-Treviso, 1947) is one of the most singular and fascinating of the first two decades of the 20th century in Italy. His works reveal a humanly fragile personality, but of great importance on an artistic level. Self-taught, he was a modern interpreter of Venetian tonal colourism, managing to combine the Venetian culture of color with the great French art. With his friend Arturo Martini and other "undisciplined" people such as Umberto Moggioli, Tullio Garbari, Ugo Valeri, Felice Casorati and later Pio Semeghini, he gave life to the avant-garde movement of Ca 'Pesaro, welcomed by Nino Barbantini. With some of these artists he then founded the "Burano School", a haven for the young rebels of Ca' Pesaro, who fought for a modern use of color and a poetic interpretation of the landscape. A less serene and luminous representation of landscapes but above all more tumultuous in the spatial sequences characterizes his latest production, marked by profound psychological disagreements. His pictorial career was interrupted in 1926, with his imprisonment in a mental hospital. It is the catalog of the exhibition Gino Rossi, our passion curated by Mario Guderzo and Carlo Sala, held at the Civic Museum of Asolo as part of the first edition of the Art Biennale of Asolo, the town where the artist lived between 1912 and 1914.
