About This Item

Buenos Aires: Asociación Amigos del Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Fundación Pettoruti, La Marca editora, 2005. color port. frontis, color and b/w plates, cat., ind., bio/chron., black cloth boards, color pict. d.j. Pettoruti is considered to be a precursor to modern painting in Argentina. His work is related and is almost contemporary to that of the European movement, referring to maximums of cubism, futurismo and abstract painting. He opposed the impressionist characteristics and the prevailing regionalism in Buenos Aires of the period. Artist Luis Felipe Noé defined him as a classicist of the modernism, obsessed by order and the harmony. According to the critic Lopez Anaya, Pettoruti included/understood that everything was more conceptual than visual. The painting, according to its intentions, had to be construction and color. In October 1924, Pettoruti has his first show in Buenos Aires at the Witcomb Gallery, after eleven years away from his country. His work, decidedly avant-garde for the time, caused a tremendous scandal. With the passage of time, Pettoruti strived to make avant-garde art better known through conferences, articles in journals and newspapers, as well as frequent exhibits. Published to coincide with the retrospective exhibition Pettoruti ( b. Argentina 1892 - d. Paris,1971) it contains works from different collections, both from Argentina and abroad. Some belonging to the National Museum of Fine Arts collection, from the Pettoruti Foundation, the Carafa Museum (Córdoba), the Castagnino Museum (Rosario), the La Plata Provincial Museum, the Sívori Museum and the Foreign Affairs Ministry of Argentina.
Pettourti es considerado un precursor de la pintura moderna. Su obra está emparentada y es casi contemporánea de la de los máximos referentes europeos del cubismo, el futurismo y la pintura abstracta. Encarnó en su momento la oposición al naturalismo de rasgos impresionistas y al regionalismo pintoresquista imperante en Buenos Aires. El 1968, una de sus obras más importantes, "Mi arlequín", fue subastada al precio más alto alcanzado hasta entonces por artista argentino alguno. Murió en París, adonde residía, a los setenta y nueve años, poco antes de poder concretar su retorno definitivo a la Argentina. El artista plástico Luis Felipe Noé lo definió como un clasicista de lo moderno, con una obsesión por el orden y la armonía. Según el crítico López Anaya, Pettoruti comprendió que todo era más conceptual que visual y por ese camino se propuso hacer un arte sólido, como el que quería Cézanne. La pintura, según sus propósitos, debía ser construcción y color. TEXTS IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH.
