From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Magazzino Italian Art is a museum and Research Center dedicated to advancing scholarship and public appreciation of postwar and contemporary Italian art in the United States. The museum was founded by Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu with the mission to share works of the group of Italian artists who exhibited together in the late 1960s and early 1970s, affiliated with the art movement of Arte Povera, with American audiences.[1] Magazzino opened to the public on June 28, 2017, with an exhibition dedicated to the influence and legacy of Margherita Stein, a late Italian dealer associated with artists active in Arte Povera circles and beyond.[2] The museum is free and open to the public.[3]

Magazzino Italian Art is located in Cold Spring, New York, within the Town of Philipstown on U.S. Route 9, on the former Cyberchron site.[4] Magazzino, which means "warehouse" in Italian, consists of an old farmers’ warehouse (later turned into a dairy distribution center and then a computer factory) and a new building by Spanish architect Miguel Quismondo.[5] The building includes a new exhibition space and a 5,000-volume library, making up the core of the Research Center, opened in 2018. [6]

Magazzino Italian Art became a non-for-profit museum in 2018, operated by Magazzino Italian Art Foundation.[7]

History[edit]

Husband-and-wife collectors Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu, who were looking to share their collection with the public, founded Magazzino Italian Art in the summer of 2017. Vittorio Calabrese was appointed as the institution’s inaugural executive director.[8]

Lifelong art enthusiasts, Olnick, who is from Manhattan, New York, and Spanu, who is from Sardinia, Italy,[9] began their collection by assembling works by artists including Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Ed Ruscha, George Segal, Jean Dubuffet, Max Ernst, Paul Klee, Henri Matisse, Joan Miró, Jackson Pollock and Pablo Picasso. Olnick and Spanu began their collection of Italian art and design with an interest in Murano Glass. The first piece they purchased was an hourglass by Paolo Venini. It was after this purchase that the couple pursued pieces of Murano Glass together, assembling one of the most distinctive collections in private hands over their 12 years of collecting. The collection was exhibited in 2000 for the exhibition Venetian Glass: 20th-Century Italian Glass From the Olnick Spanu Collection, at the Museum of Arts and Design. Including more than 250 works, the exhibition featured pieces of glass by Paolo Venini, Gio Ponti, Benvenuto Barovier, Carlo Scarpa, among others.[10]

The couple shifted focus to the Arte Povera movement.[11] This interest in Arte Povera began after a visit to Castello di Rivoli, a contemporary art museum in Turin that has a significant collection. The core of the Olnick Spanu Arte Povera collection came via Margherita Stein, a Turin-based collector who died in 2003, and other works were acquired at auction and from galleries.[12] Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu amassed one of the world’s premier collections of postwar Italian art.[13] The collection contains more than 400 works compiled over the course of three decades.[14]

From 2003 to 2015, the couple also ran the Olnick Spanu Art Program from their home designed by Spanish architect Alberto Campo Baeza in Garrison, New York, that overlooks the Hudson River.[15] The Olnick Spanu Art Program included contemporary Italian artists Giorgio Vigna, Massimo Bartolini, Mario Airò, Domenico Bianchi, Remo Salvadori, Stefano Arienti, Bruna Esposito, Marco Bagnoli, Francesco Arena, and Paolo Canevari, who created spite-specific work on the property.[16]

In 2012, Olnick and Spanu had hoped to construct the space on their estate in Garrison, New York. However, they decided to relocate the museum to the Route 9 location in Cold Spring, New York, in response to conversations with the local community.[17]

Exhibitions[edit]

Magazzino opened to the public on June 28, 2017, with an exhibition dedicated to the influence and legacy of Margherita Stein, a late Italian dealer associated with artists active in Arte Povera circles and beyond.[18] The debut exhibition, Margherita Stein: Rebel with a Cause, detailed the history of the eponymous champion of Arte Povera, whose Galleria Christian Stein, founded in Turin in 1966, offered early shows to Alighiero Boetti, Lucio Fontana, Jannis Kounellis, and many others. The exhibition at Magazzino Italian Art eschewed a chronological overview that mirrored how Arte Povera evolved. Scholar Ara H. Merjian characterizes the movement as an "often-slippery phenomenon with both a lengthy prehistory and a protracted afterlife, exceeding any strictly confined dates or formal imperatives.” The exhibition included pieces that conveyed the range of Arte Povera’s engagements with materiality and phenomenological experience.[19]

In 2018, Magazzino Italian Art opened a new exhibition that is ongoing, which focuses on Arte Povera. Including nearly 80 sculptures, paintings and photographs, the exhibition highlights works by Alighiero Boetti, Gilberto Zorio, Giovanni Anselmo, Giulio Paolini, Giuseppe Penone, Jannis Kounellis, Luciano Fabro, Mario Merz, Marisa Merz, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Pier Paolo Calzolari, Pino Pascali. Artworks are periodically rotated within the galleries.[20]

In 2020, Magazzino began hosting rotating special exhibitions in Gallery 8: the large, sky-lit gallery space added on to the original structure of the renovated warehouse space by architect Miguel Quismondo.[21] The first exhibition in Gallery 8, Homemade, was originally an online initiative created to support and engage Italian artists working at home in New York during the global pandemic. While beginning as a virtual and Instagram invitational, it evolved into a physical exhibition upon the museum’s reopening in July 2020. The exhibition included work by artists Alessandro Teoldi, Andrea Mastrovito, Beatrice Scaccia, Danilo Correale, Davide Balliano, Francesco Simeti, Luisa Rabbia and Maria D. Rapicavoli.[22] With approximately 30 works on view, curated by Director Vittorio Calabrese with Chiara Mannarino, the exhibition demonstrated how artists pushed their practice during this period, using new methods and materials, and interrogating new issues—from concrete casts that explore polarized concepts, such as connection and separation, to large-scale painting that investigates cosmic natures.[23] Gallery  8 continued to serve as the museum’s dedicated special exhibition space,hosting the exhibition Bochner Boetti Fontana from October 2, 2020 – April 5, 2021, curated by Mel Bochner in collaboration with Magazzino Italian Art. The exhibition examined parallel artistic movements in the 1960s and 1970s in the U.S. and Italy through the artwork of Bochner, Alighiero Boetti, and Lucio Fontana.

On May 8, 2021, Magazzino debuted Nivola: Sandscapes, a solo exhibition of Costantino Nivola’s pioneering sandcast reliefs, concrete sculptures, and rarely seen architectural maquettes.[24] The exhibition was organized in collaboration with the Nivola Foundation and the Embassy of Italy in Washington, D.C., providing a rare opportunity to explore the innovative techniques of the modernist sculptor.[25]

From May 7, 2022- January 9, 2023, Magazzino’s special exhibition, Gilardi: Tappeto-Natura, marked the first solo museum exhibition in the United States for the Italian artist, Piero Gilardi, who throughout his career remained committed to investing in the formation of an international artistic community that embodied the tie between art and life. The exhibition focused on the works at the core of his practice, Tappeto-Natura, which translates to Nature Carpets, representing the culmination of his dream of an ideal nature, uncontaminated, “recreated” through an artificial material like polyurethane foam.[26] The pieces, unframed and mounted on the floor and walls, embody the artist’s goal of facilitating a direct relationship between the viewer’s mind and the work.[27]

Since its opening, Magazzino Italian Art has also organized off-site exhibitions in different cultural institutions between New York City, Garrison, Washington, D.C., and Cagliari in Italy. Solo shows by artists such as Margherita Raso,[28] Formafantasma,[29] Namsal Siedlecki,[30] Bruno Gambone, Guido Gambone, photographer Marco Anelli, Renato Leotta, Melissa McGill, Fausto Melotti, Alessandro Piangiamore, and Ornaghi Prestinari – and group exhibitions – such as Paper Media: Boetti, Calzolari, Kounellis; Arte Povera: From the Olnick Spanu Collection; Young Italians; and Marco Bagnoli, Domenico Bianchi, Remo Salvadori at the Garrison Art Center – have promoted and celebrated the range of Italian artists’ creative practices from Arte Povera to the present.

On the occasion of the inauguration of the Robert Olnick Pavilion on September 14, 2023,[31] Magazzino Italian Art will opened new exhibitions dedicated to Italian artists Mario Schifano, Ettore Spalletti, and a special project dedicated to Carlo Scarpa.

The solo exhibition dedicated to Italian artist Mario Schifano, is curated by Alberto Salvadori and organized in collaboration with Archivio Mario Schifano in Rome. Titled Mario Schifano: The Rise of the ‘60s, the exhibition will be on view through January 8, 2024, and it’s the first major survey of work from the 1960s and '70s by the Roman painter born in Libya. The exhibition is presented on the sixtieth anniversary of Schifano’s first visit to the United States—a turning point in his career—and includes eighty works from the beginning of the 1960s made in homage to Italy’s painters of commercial billboards.[32]

The project dedicated to the work of Ettore Spalletti has been conceived and organized in close collaboration with the artist’s Estate. Conceived by Fondazione Ettore Spalletti and Alberto Salvadori in collaboration with the architect Alberto Campo Baeza, the special project emerges from a deep dialogue with the architectural space: it features large-scale works installed in Gallery 2, an isotropic room built as a perfect cube, in which each wall is punctured by a single square window.[33] The project is a reflection on Spalletti’s work in relation to the cube designed by Alberto Campo Baeza; a space that feels like a sanctuary.

The exhibition dedicated to Carlo Scarpa features a selection of Murano glass from the Olnick Spanu Collection. The show, curated by Marino Barovier, will be on view in the Design Gallery of the Robert Olnick Pavilion through March 31, 2023. The exhibition reconstructs the creative journey of the renowned architect from 1926 to 1947, a period during which he collaborated with the two most prominent Murano glassmakers of the time: M.V.M. Cappellin & Co. and Venini.

Public programming[edit]

Since the founding of Magazzino Italian Art, the institution hosted a range of exhibitions, large scale performative public art works and public educational programs. In 2017, Michelangelo Pistoletto staged a performance of Scultura da Passeggio (Walking Sculpture) in Cold Spring, New York.[34] In 2019, artist Marinella Senatore and the School of Narrative Dance joined Magazzino for a community event in the Village of Cold Spring, New York, hosting a rolling parade of marches, performances, dancing and music on Main Street.[35] In 2019, Magazzino partnered with Beacon, New York-based artist Melissa McGill to stage Red Regatta in Venice, Italy. This large scale public performance choreographed a fleet of traditional vela al terzo boats, rigged with sails in shades of red sailing across the Venetian lagoon in celebration of the city’s maritime history and sharing a cautionary tale about the effects of climate change and mass tourism on the region.[36] In 2020, during the pandemic, Magazzino Italian Art organized online lectures and artist conversations. In 2021, Magazzino presented a series of performances by artist Cristian Chironi which took place in various locations throughout New York. Cristian Chironi’s New York Drive was a series of performances which originated and were inspired by Sardinian artist Costantino Nivola, with whom Chironi shares a birthplace (the town of Orani in Sardinia, Italy). This week-long program was organized in conjunction with the special exhibition on view at the Museum, Nivola: Sandscapes, and invited the public to hop aboard Chironi’s colorful Fiat 127 – a vehicle that is closely linked to Nivola’s life story.[37] In 2022, Magazzino hosted a day of presentations and conversations in conjunction with Gilardi: Tappeto-Natura. Through expert and scholarly testimonies, presenters contextualized the life, legacy, and philosophies of Piero Gilardi, with a focus on the artistic and industrial prominence of Turin, Gilardi’s hometown, the complexities of his ecological vision, and the extensive reiterations of his most famous work, Tappeti-Natura. The speakers included curator, Elena Re, Dr. Teresa Kittler, Dr. Elizabeth Mangini, and Dr. Christian Rattemeyer.

Magazzino’s public programs include a full range of artist talks, book presentations, concerts, films, scholarly lectures, and workshops that invite audiences to encounter new perspectives and aspects of Italian art and culture. Each spring, Magazzino’s Scholar-in-Residence curates a lecture series that invites leading scholars from around the world to present on topics relating to postwar and contemporary Italian art. Magazzino hosts Cinema in Piazza, an annual summer film program organized in collaboration with Artecinema in Naples and the Cold Spring Film Society.

Research center[edit]

In 2018, Magazzino Italian Art opened its research center and started its annual scholar-in-residence program.[38] The Scholar-in-Residence program is a fellowship lasting 11 months,  inviting a recent PhD graduate to pursue an independent project that contributes new research in the field of postwar and contemporary Italian Art. In addition to their work, the scholar works closely with the museum team on providing their expertise on upcoming public programs, leading tours and curating a spring lecture series. Applicants can apply directly on the museum’s website.[39] Previous recipients of the Scholar-in-Residence fellowship include Dr. Francesco Guzzetti,[40] Dr. Tenley Bick,[41] Dr. Teresa Kittler,[42] and Dr. Katie Larson.[43], and Dr. Roberta Minnucci.[44] Magazzino’s 2023-24 Scholar-in-Residence is Dr. Margaret Scarborough.

Magazzino Italian Art's Germano Celant Research Center serves as a resource for scholars and students, open by appointment. It offers an extensive library and archive of publications on a wide array of subjects, including Italian art, postwar and contemporary art, design, architecture, and Murano Glass. On April 29, 2023, Magazzino Italian Art inaugurated the Germano Celant Research Center, honoring the life of Germano Celant, renowned art historian, critic, and curator—one of the most influential figures in postwar and contemporary Italian art.[45]

Currently, the Research Center has over 5,000 publications, with 330 of those being rare book and archival material such as photographs, invitations, posters, and books; over twenty periodical subscriptions are also available.[46] The Research Center’s database is searchable for on-site researchers, and is also equipped with state-of-the-art scanner technology, the KIC Bookeye 4, which is sensitive enough to scan archival material at 600 dpi resolution and allows for scholars to scan and send JPG or PDF files directly to their computers.

Architecture and design[edit]

Magazzino Italian Art is 20,000 square feet, including 18,000 square feet of exhibition space, an interior courtyard, and nearly 5 acres of landscaped grounds.[47] In September 2023 will add an extra 13,000 square feet to its campus with the Robert Olnick Pavilion.[48]

The museum was created from a pre-existing warehouse off Route 9 in Cold Spring, New York, by Spanish architect Miguel Quismondo. The concept of a warehouse is central to the space’s identity: one of the structures, built in 1964, functioned for years as a storage facility for a computer manufacturer and, before that, as a distribution center for dairy products. The name alludes to the industrial spaces that served as the backdrop of Arte Povera, and paid homage by Quismondo through his selection of building materials, such as steel and cement. Quismondo started the design project by repairing and refurbishing the original steel-and-concrete 11,000-square-foot, L-shaped building located off Route 9, at the low point of a rolling landscape, adjacent to protected wetlands.


He adapted the structure to include a library, restrooms, and several distinct galleries. The design team removed the building’s drop ceilings and discovered steel joists and a roof of precast-concrete panels. They decided to expose these existing elements. Rather than obstructing them with the HVAC system, the team tore up the floor slab and installed a radiant heating and cooling system, which is also used in the new building. Large, square windows and a series of skylights installed to bring daylight into the space. The exterior was refinished in a smooth, white stucco. For the new structure, he designed a 14,000-square-foot rectangular building made up of a poured-in-place concrete frame. The addition runs parallel to the  existing building, closing the L-shape with a glass passageway to form a central courtyard. The addition includes gallery space on the ground level and offices and storage in the basement. The old and new volumes come together in a harmony of material and scale.[49]

Magazzino Italian Art was architect Miguel Quismondo’s first major completed project. He previously worked under Alberto Campo Baeza on the Olnick Spanu House in Garrison, New York. Quismondo became involved with Magazzino in 2014, but completed construction (doubling as the general contractor) in 20 months.[50]

Magazzino Italian Art’s campus includes the original 20,000 square-foot building, which includes 18,000 square feet of exhibition space and an interior courtyard; as well as the 13,000 square-foot Robert Olnick Pavilion, and nearly 5 acres of landscaped grounds.[51]

Architects Miguel Quismondo and Alberto Campo Baeza collaborated for the first time on an additional building for Magazzino. The Robert Olnick Pavilion, named after Co-founder Nancy Olnick's late father, is nestled into the hillside perpendicular to the original building, taking advantage of its surroundings and coming equipped an additional 13,000 square feet of exhibition space, a wing devoted to decorative arts, ceramics and jewelry, a multipurpose room with auditorium capabilities, and a combined café and store on the mezzanine.[52] Unlike its predecessor, the Robert Olnick Pavilion is a ground up project, incorporated into the sloped terrain of Magazzino’s campus to make the most of the natural light and beauty of the scenery. The design of the pavilion, in the same spirit as the existing building, returns to materials that echo the logical and humble philosophies of Arte Povera.[53] In addition, strategically placed windows and skylights will allow visitors to enjoy the beauty of the campus, engaging with the natural landscape as well as the art on view in a fresh and varied experience. The focus of the building is that of Gallery 2, an isotropic room, where a cubed gallery space, functioning as a universal container, is flooded with light.

Grounds[edit]

Magazzino Italian Art is located in Cold Spring, New York, a town in the Hudson Valley region. The museum is about 60 miles north of New York City.[58]

Magazzino is surrounded by landscaped grounds with seasonal flora and fauna. The museum also has Sardinian donkey stables on the premises.[59] The donkeys joined the museum in 2017, serving as a mascot for the museum and a symbol of community between Italy and the region; Nancy Olnick and Giorgio Spanu, the founders of Magazzino Italian Art, donated two donkeys to Tilly Foster Farms for education purposes and for the public to view.[60]

Magazzino also hosts a variety of outdoor installations, both permanent and temporary. Coinciding with the six-year anniversary of Magazzino, Michelangelo Pistoletto’s 90th birthday, and the 20th anniversary of the birth of Pistoletto’s manifesto Terzo paradiso (Third Paradise, 2003), on June 25, 2023, Magazzino unveiled the monumental permanent installation, Terzo paradiso, situated on the museum’s grounds and realized with 46 stones excavated during the construction of the new Robert Olnick Pavillon[61].Giuseppe Penone’s monumental-scale work, Unghia e Marmo, welcomes visitors arriving at Magazzino and examines the relationship between nature and the human body. On March 14th 2022, eighteen Ukrainian flags were installed on the museum’s grounds in expression of our solidarity with the Ukrainian population and as a testament to the goal of peace, shared across institutions in the United States and beyond. Originally, the eighteen flag poles hosted an artwork by Giulio Paolini, Il cielo e dintorni from 1988. The work consisted of eighteen white flags onto which Paolini printed representations of the sky from specific works throughout western European art history.[62] From Memorial Day Weekend until September 14, 2021, the installation by artist Bruna Esposito, Alrti Venti – Ostro (2020), was on view. The artwork built on the artist's four-decade commitment to sustainability by questioning the ubiquitous use of air conditioners to manipulate our environment, featuring a wooden structure and bench. In Fall 2021, a commissioned sculpture joined the donkey herd, Namsal Siedlecki’s Trevis Maponos, an installation featuring a concrete base and hay feeder, used daily by Magazzino’s donkeys. Italian artist Renato Leotta’s work, Notte di San Lorenzo (New York City), debuted on Magazzino’s grounds in 2019. This site-specific installation connected the artist’s lemon grove in Sicily, a continuing source of inspiration for his work, to the bucolic Cold Spring landscape, the Hudson River and New York City.[63]

Reception[edit]

Magazzino Italian Art opened in 2017 to a warm reception from the local, national and international arts communities.[64]

Magazzino Italian Art’s building has been described as harmonious and praised as “a lesson in expert proportion,” by Alex Kimoski in Architectural Record.[65]

The interior galleries have been described as an elegant and sleek home for masterworks of the Arte Povera movement. After visiting the museum’s inaugural exhibition, New York Times’ Nancy Princenthal writes: “But as Magazzino confirms, by its design aesthetic as much as by its inaugural show — it honors Margherita Stein, a patron of the movement — an irrepressible sense of good taste prevailed from the start.”[66]

Initial reviews of Magazzino remarked about the evident scholarly rigor and substance of the exhibitions and curatorial programs. Clayton Press writes, “The selection of works at Magazzino presents a cohesive, clear overview of Arte Povera and its Italian contemporary art descendants.”[67]

Siddhartha Mitter for the Village Voice described his experience of the artworks on view as “transcendent” and exemplary of “Arte Povera at its finest: raw yet peaceful, industrial yet sensory, a passageway for the ghosts in the machine.”[68]

Since opening, the museum has provided a cultural hub for the region and beyond.[69]

In 2020, following COVID-19 related closures, the museum reopened with two exhibitions: ongoing Arte Povera and Homemade. The museum’s COVID-19 safety protocols were featured and celebrated broadly by the museum community. Magazzino Italian Art was the first museum in the United States to adopt a new social distancing technology, the EGOpro Active Tags.[70]

Magazzino Italian Art opened the Robert Olnick Pavilion on September 10, 2023, with a private opening reception with more than 700 guests in attendance.[71] The building opened to the public on September 14, 2023, with the inaugural exhibitions Mario Schifano: The Rise of the ‘60s, Carlo Scarpa: Timeless Masterpieces and a special project, Ettore Spalletti: Parole di colore.
