Altan. Pimpa, Cipputi e altri pensatori
a cura di Anne Palopoli e Luca Raffaelli
Extra MAXXI
La chiusura della mostra è stata prorogata al 13 aprile 2020.
Tutto il mondo di Altan raccontato attraverso disegni originali, poster, illustrazioni, quadri, schizzi, tavole, libri e filmati.
Altan è protagonista di una grande mostra al MAXXI, realizzata in coproduzione con Fondazione Solares e Franco Cosimo Panini Editore, a cura di Anne Palopoli e Luca Raffaelli. Una ricognizione completa per raccontare, in un percorso articolato, tutto il suo lavoro tra disegni originali, poster, illustrazioni, quadri, schizzi, tavole, libri e filmati.
Quello di Altan è un mondo in cui il dubbio si rivela come l’unica grande certezza possibile, in cui i grandi miti della storia vengono ribaltati e l’umanità cerca di galleggiare nel disordinato mare della vita. Ci salva una cagnolina che, forte della propria voglia di conoscenza, sorride di fronte alle meraviglie dell’universo.
I personaggi di Altan sono tutti liberi pensatori, così liberi da poter confessare a sé stessi e al mondo anche il proprio desiderio di autodistruzione. Ma il loro pensiero è sempre una rivelazione, è quello che stavamo per dire, che avevamo sulla punta della lingua. Altan ce lo rivela con sorprendente lucidità. Come se fosse sempre un passo avanti a noi.
Ecco finalmente la mostra completa di un autore capace di muoversi agilmente tra disegni dedicati all’infanzia e fumetto d’avventura, tra romanzi illustrati e filmati di animazione, tra vignette e sceneggiature.
Ogni weekend, le educatrici museali accompagnano bambini e adulti a partecipare a I giochi di Pimpa presenti in mostra: la tombola, il memory, il gioco dell’oca e i libri illustrati della Pimpa e l’Armando.
Accompagna la mostra un catalogo edito da Franco Cosimo Panini.
