Mario Radice, Marlborough Galleria D'Arte, Roma poster
rare offset lithograph poster
This 1970s poster is undated and we couldn't find another example anywhere else, currently or previously on the market, so we believe it's from the artist's 1971 Marlborough Gallery Roma, although there was also a 1976 exhibition at at Marlborough Galleria Roma.

MARIO RADICE BIOGRAPHY
Mario Radice was an Italian painter, considered one of the leaders of abstract art. He began his artistic training with the painter Achille Zambelli and the sculptor Pietro Clerici. After a military parenthesis and a job as an accountant for a railway company, Mario Radice worked for his uncle Guido Vitali, general manager of the paper mills in Fabriano, and thus became familiar with the qualities of the paper and soon founded the company Mario Radice & C., based in Bergamo. In February 1930, he settled in Como and decided to devote himself exclusively to painting, cultivated in his first studio in Como on Via delle Cinque Giornate, shared with Rho. Their fellowship, which was joined by the younger Giuseppe Terragni, formed the first nucleus of the so-called Como Group, a group of personalities oriented towards the renewal of the arts and architecture - as far from the liberty as from the Novecento style -, operating between Como and Milan in the name of a fruitful international opening.
