Gerardo Dottori: The Futurist View

Gerardo Dottori (1884-1977) was a pivotal figure in Italian Futurism during the inter-war years. His expansive and intensely lyrical visions of the Umbrian landscape, viewed from above, were among the earliest and most striking examples of aeropainting, which explored the dynamic perspectives of flight.

A major new survey of his work, bringing together some 50 paintings and drawings will be on show in London this summer, including a large number of works which have never been exhibited in the UK before.

This exploration of the career of one of Futurism’s most significant and distinctive figures draws on key works from a number of public and private collections and is curated by Massimo Duranti, the leading expert on the artist, and President of Perugia’s Archivi Dottori. The exhibition is accompanied by a fully-illustrated catalogue.
