Art Factor presents a curated selection of 250 artworks by Italian artists, spanning from the aftermath of World War II through to the early 2000s. It explores the evolution of Italian pop art via figures such as Valerio Adami, Franco Angeli, Enrico Baj, Mario Schifano, and Emilio Tadini. The collection reflects a unique journey that intertwines the development of contemporary Italian art with the history and growth of the private company that assembled it.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The catalogue presents a selection of works by Italian artists from a private contemporary art collection, which pays tribute to the art of the second half of 20th-century society, and becomes an integrated part of the history and growth of the company that collected it over the years.

It includes 250 artworks from the early years after World War II to the 2000s. It narrates an Italian path to pop art through the art of Valerio Adami, Franco Angeli, Enrico Baj, Mario Schifano, Emilio Tadini and others. Indeed, the book and the collection itself tell a common story: the desire to be activists and not spectators of those initiatives that create value for society.
