An updated and comprehensive monograph devoted to a leading figure of Italian contemporary art Among the most relevant artists of the contemporary Italian scene, since the 1970s Remo Salvadori (Cerreto Guidi, 1947) has been carrying out research that, based on the interaction between elements such as water, colour, and metals, proposes a renewed formulation of the work defined by alchemical mutations and streams of knowledge, capable of offering the observer a new awareness of the self and the world. This monograph - the first to have this approach within the artist's bibliography - traces in an articulate and in-depth way Salvadori's life and activity from 1947 to 2024 through a rich chronology, resulting two-years research into the artist's archive. The publication is accompanied by more than 700 images of solo and group exhibitions, works, events, and documents, many of them previously unpublished, and introduced by the essays by Antonella Soldaini, Davide Bondì, Filippo Bosco, and Sharon Hecker that, through different viewpoints, contribute to broaden the critical analysis of the artist's work.
