On May 8 at 17 at the National University Library of Turin in Piazza Carlo Alberto, 3 will open the exhibition "Art in Trench. Anselmo Bucci and The First World War "directed by Luciano Rossetto and Franco Cravarezza.
The exhibition is open during the month of entry of Italy in the Great War and commemorates the lives of soldiers in the trenches through the art of Anselmo Bucci, painter, engraver and writer originally from the Marche, following the family in the Veneto, where he completed high school and he began painting but also lives the overwhelming experience of the trenches as a volunteer in the "Lombard Battalion volunteer cyclists and motorists" which collected the most famous "futurists" Italian period as Marinetti, Boccioni and Sant'Elia.
In the exhibition the 53 drypoint etchings that are part of the private collection of Giulia Beccaria and that make up the folder "Croquis du front italien" in which Anselmo Bucci recounted his experience at the front of the First World War.
In these recordings, rather than dwell on the spectacular war Bucci offers a series of poetic and expressive images in which he narrates, with the watchful eye of the artist and the "comrade", the life of the battalion more in moments of rest and during the fighting.
To create the perfect setting for precious engravings, the Library displays a selection of precious provision relating Archive Piero Pieri, one of the most important scholars of the 1st World War, and the Friends of the National University Library sports uniforms military and historical materials original period of private collection of Louis Giarola supplemented by some uniforms Mirco Solero and photographs donated to the Library by the family of general artillery Alfeo Clavarino, at the time of the first Provincial nascent Italian Army anti-aircraft artillery.
