The Movimento arte concreta (Concrete Art Movement), also known as MAC, was founded in Milan in 1948 by a group of Italian artists with their own unique aesthetic; principal among them were Atanasio Soldati, Gillo Dorfles, Bruno Munari and Gianni Monnet. The print offered here is a product of this movement, which brought together a number of artists who contributed original lithographs or serigraphs to this 1954 project. Among the artists represented in this portfolio were: Enrico Baj, Enrico Bordoni, Joe Colombo, Nino Di Salvatore, Gillo Dorfles, Asger Jorn, Plinio Mesciulam, Gianni Monnet, Bruno Munari, Bruna Pecciarini, Mauro Reggiani, Atanasio Soldati and Luigi Veronesi. Vintage original prints by many of these artists are rarely encountered today.
