In excellent condition, except for minor defect on the edges. Enrico Paulucci born Paolucci Delle Roncole (Genoa, 1901 - Turin, 1999) The Italian painter, Enrico Paulucci is remembered as a member of the Group of Six of Turin. In the years 1927-1928 he began to attend the most famous painters of the Turin area and became friends with Felice Casorati, and then with Lionello Venturi and Edoardo Persico. In 1928 he moved to Paris, where he deepened his knowledge of French painting, from Impressionism onwards, and became interested in the work of Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Raoul Dufy, and Georges Braque. In 1929 he returned to Turin, where he joined his friends Gigi Chessa, Carlo Levi, Nicola Galante, Francesco Menzio and Jessie Boswell, and with them he formed the Group of the Six of Turin, supported by Lionello Venturi and Edoardo Persico. The group looks at post-impressionist French painting and spoke of freedom and Europe in a climate in which art was threatened by nationalism and autarchic withdrawals. The group disbanded in 1931, but Paulucci, Menzio and Levi still exhibited together in 1931-1932 in Paris, London and Rome. In Turin, together with Felice Casorati, Paulucci founded the Casorati-Paulucci studio, where he organized many avant-garde exhibitions, including the first Italian art exhibition by the Milanese Milione group. less
