Mimmo Rotella
MANIFESTI LACERATI

8 Sep 2023 - 4 Nov 2023
Berlin

The 'décollages' by the Italian Mimmo Rotella (1918–2006) on show in this exhibition impressively present an important chapter in European art history. His works involve the viewer in a perceptual game of coexisting image fragments. Torn advertising posters with colourful images and lettering are familiar to us from our fleeting perception in everyday life, for torn posters (Italian: 'manifesti lacerati'), which are charming and at the same time a little run-down, are omnipresent in the modern city.
