“Chitarra” by Giuseppe Chiari.

Dimensions: 70 x 100 cm
Certificate of origin supplied by the Armanda Gori Arte Gallery (Po)

Born in Florence on September 26, 1926, Giuseppe Chiari was a musician, pianist and visual artist and part of the Fluxus movement.

He began writing music in 1950 "a music that was a precursor to minimalism by 20 years". His compositions of that first period are the "Intervals and the Studies" of the single frequency. Among the later works Gesti sul piano from 1962 and L'arte è facile from 1972.

Within the Fluxus group he experimented the concept of "visual music" by combining visual and musical art in a continum in which music is characterized by its visual component. "On the front of the visual arts, abstractionism and the conceptual definitively overcome the incorporeality that is typical of musical expression"
