In which paradigmatic works is this capacity still surviving and in which is it brought into crisis? This issue is focused on artworks that addressed the visual identity of Italy in many respects: archetyes, stereotypes, tradition, iconographic crisis, the sight by the other, etc.

Bracketed on one side by the revolutionary impulses and pluralist art practices of the late 1960s, and on the other by a conservative return to order and the retrenchment of authoritative painting in the 1980s, the 1970s is an era without a clear identity. In art, this same period witnessed the dissolution of collective artistic attitudes like Arte Povera and Fluxus into the disparate orbits of individual careers.

Italian Art and the "Space Race" Edited by Laura Iamurri and Denis Viva.

Since the first launch of the Sputnik 1 (1957) until the first “Onward to the Moon” by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin (1969), Visual Arts seemed to be inspired by that decade of hectic technological competition between US and USSR. If many Western artists were fascinated by this space adventure, in Italy this topic was early evoked by the manifest of Spatialism and by the works of Arte Nucleare, reaching the peak with the playful and immersive Fabio Mauri's lunar environment for the show Il teatro delle mostre, in 1968.

CFP Palinsesti "Italianicity is not Italy": Questioning Contemporary Italian Art History (edited by Tenley Bick)

"Italianicity is not Italy": Questioning Contemporary Italian Art History, 2023

Within contemporary Italy and Italian culture persist histories that inform Italy’s present but can be, as Igiaba Scego has recently written, “uncomfortable traces of our past” (Scego, “Cosa fare con le tracce del nostro passato,” 2020). Histories of colonialism and fascism, for example, continue to inform current debates surrounding migration and Italy’s increasing multi-ethnicity. Recent scholarship on race and biopolitics (Rhiannon Noel Welch, Vital Subjects, 2016), empire and mobility regimes (Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Italian Fascism’s Empire Cinema, 2015; Stephanie Malia Hom, Empire’s Mobius Strip, 2019), and postcoloniality in Italian Studies (Cristina Lombardi-Diop and Caterina Romeo, eds., Postcolonial Italy: Challenging National Homogeneity, 2012) has shed light on contemporary Italy’s understudied sites of identity and often negated histories. Although this scholarship is bringing the so-called postcolonial turn to bear upon studies of contemporary Italian culture, more remains to be done – especially in art historical studies of contemporary Italian art. Indeed, although works by artists of color and themes of migration have been included and addressed in recent years by major exhibitions in Italy, these artists are almost always non-Italian. The need for postcolonial art historical studies of contemporary Italian art history is marked and overdue.

Bracketed on one side by the revolutionary impulses and pluralist art practices of the late 1960s, and on the other by a conservative return to order and the retrenchment of authoritative painting in the 1980s, the 1970s is an era without a clear identity.
