MDF ITALIA IN SPONSORSHIP with the architect

ELISABETTA TERRAGNI. Has drawn on an almost

archetypal painting by Max Ernst from 1920 for

her concept. Working from an old schoolbook

image, Ernst took away almost everything, but left

the figures of the animals in their original positions,

achieving a truly surreal effect.

MDF ITALIA SPONSOR per il progetto dell’architetto

ELISABETTA TERRAGNI. Nel progettare il suo

spazio, si è rifatta a un’immagine, quasi archetipica,

dipinta da Max Ernst nel 1920: partendo da una

vecchia immagine di un sussidiario, Ernst tolse quasi

tutto, ma lasciò le figure degli animali nella loro posi-

zione originale, creando un effetto davvero surreale.

Taking away rather than adding to seems to be a

necessary process for underscoring the essential:

the ghosts that remain and take on the permanent

value of expressing feelings.

Togliere invece che aggiungere sembra essere

un atteggiamento necessario per mettere in luce

l’essenziale.

81

This is the modus operandi adopted by the

German art historian Aby Warburg, rediscovered

at the end of the twentieth-century, whose

theories are now considered fundamental to an

anthropological reading of images, as discussed

by the French art historian Georges Didi-Huberman

in L’Image Survivante. Histoire de l’Art et Temps

des Fantômes Selon Aby Warburg.

È questa l’operazione che faceva lo storico

dell’arte tedesco Aby Warburg, riscoperto alla fine

del XX secolo, e le cui teorie vengono considerate

ormai fondamentali per una lettura antropologica

delle immagini, come ha mostrato, tra gli altri, lo

storico dell’arte francese Georges Didi-Huberman

con L’immagine insepolta. Aby Warburg, la

memoria dei fantasmi e la storia dell’arte.
