Unzählige Geschichten ranken sich um die Kulturlandschaft Tessin. Mit romantischen Vorstellungen über die Schönheit der Natur, dem mediterranen Klima und seiner « Italianità» zieht der Kanton seit Jahrhunderten nicht nur Reisende, sondern auch immer wieder Kunstschaffende in seinen Bann. Stetig fliesst ein reichhaltiges und diverses Spektrum an künstlerischen Positionen durch die Kulturlandschaft des Tessins und zeichnet sie. Diese Vielfalt geht nicht zuletzt auch auf die einzigartige geografische Situation der Region zurück. Durch die Lage komplett südlich der Alpen bildet sich über die Jahrhunderte hinweg eine kulturelle Nähe zu Italien, die Tessiner Künstler:innen zu Studienaufenthalten und Erwerbstätigkeit in die italienischen Zentren verleitet. Der Aufschwung des Tourismus in der Schweiz im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert hinterlässt seine Spuren auch im Tessin, welches vermehrt zu einem Motiv malerischer Landschaften wird. Mit der Eröffnung des Gotthardtunnels 1882 entsteht erstmals eine schnelle und direkte Verbindung zwischen dem Süden und Norden der Alpen, die das Reisen und den Austausch zwischen Kunstschaffenden befördert. Im Zuge dieser neuen Beweglich-keit zwischen Nord und Süd wird die Region zu einem Zentrum reger künstlerischer Tätigkeit, in dem verschiedene Persönlichkeiten und Positionen aufeinandertreffen, sichtbar an der Gründung diverser Künstler gruppen wie «Der Grosse Bär» und «I Solidali», oder an den Aktivitäten um die Künstlerkolonie auf dem Monte Verità. Anhand ihrer eigenen Bestände setzt die Graphische Sammlung ETH Zürich eine Auswahl an Kulminationspunkten künstlerischer Aktivität in und um den Kanton Tessin vom 17. Jahrhundert bis heute in den Fokus. Einerseits wird das Tessin in der Ausstellung als Motiv aufgegriffen: In Landschaftsdarstellungen, als Entstehungsort von Kunst oder als wesentlicher Bestandteil von Künstlerbiografien. Andererseits wird das Tessin als Kulturraum behandelt: als Wirkungsstätte von Kunstschaffenden, als Ort der Begegnung unterschiedlicher Positionen oder als Ort der Inspiration.
Präsentiert werden Tessiner Kunstschaffende sowie weitere Künstler:innen, für die der Kanton ein wichtiger Bezugsort in ihrer Tätigkeit darstellt. So reichen die gezeigten Positionen von der Federzeichnung des Pier Francesco Mola (1612–1666), Landschaf-ten von Ludwig Hess (1760–1800) über Werke von Hans Arp (1889–1966), Imre Reiner (1900–1987), Anita Spinelli (1908–2010) oder den in der Druckerei Lafranca ent-standenen Grafiken von Mark Tobey (1890–1976) und Flavio Paolucci (*1934) bis zu den Architekturentwürfen von Mario Botta (*1934).
Kuratiert von Saskia Goldschmid.

“Aspiravamo a una voce” – Anita Spinelli
La mostra celebra la donna attraverso la pittura di Anita Spinelli. Il suo è un lavoro di osservazione e introspezione, di rivendicazione e ricerca di libertà che mantiene tutta la sua attualità. Con una scelta di tele dal 1933 al 2006 centrata sulla figura femminile, la mostra rivela un dialogo dell‘artista con se stessa e la società.
Lo sguardo di Anita Spinelli è critico, a volte gioioso, a volte tormentato e dolente, ma sempre empatico e mai riduttivo. L‘artista coglie e condivide l’emozione profonda dei suoi personaggi rivelandone le fragilità come pure le proprie inquietudini.
Per Anita Spinelli, fare arte è tutto. L‘esigenza di una voce independente da convenzioni sociali e ruoli di genere, si esprime anche nella sua ricerca di libertà espressiva – un cammino sofferto e al contempo entusiasmante quello della conquista di autonomia.

Mostra “Anita Spinelli. Segni di vita”

Museo Fondazione Mecrì

La Fondazione Mecrì ha il piacere di annunciare la prossima inaugurazione, domenica 26 marzo a partire dalle ore 11.00, dedicata alla pittrice Anita Spinelli (1908 Balerna – 2010 Mendrisio) tra le prime artiste svizzere ad aver frequentato, a cavallo tra gli anni Venti e Trenta del Novecento, l’Accademia di Brera a Milano. Nel corso della sua lunga carriera artistica il colore, luminoso e sottile, è protagonista indiscusso, in una continua ricerca di libertà e in tutte le possibili modalità espressive. Al centro dei suoi interessi vi è l’essere umano, il suo pensiero e sentire, il suo evolvere nello spazio e nel tempo, nelle sue più svariate manifestazioni, in sintesi in qualsiasi segno di vita.

![La Lambada, tecnica mista, 1989. Collezione Quadreria]()
L’esposizione si concentra in particolare sulle opere designate quali ‘tecniche miste’, ovvero in prevalenza opere grafiche, acqueforti, sulle quali l’artista è intervenuta con il colore e con l’inchiostro dando vita ad una vera e personale nuova forma espressiva. Molte delle opere sono esposte per la prima volta.
In mostra una trentina di lavori realizzati a partire dagli anni Settanta in poi. Nonostante si possa percepire un ricordo delle opere grafiche di stampo espressionista d’influenza germanica, come spesso succede nell’opera pittorica, così anche nella grafica di Anita Spinelli si sviluppa una ricerca che attinge e si avvicina a stili conosciuti ma mai si chiude in uno prodotto preconfezionato, piuttosto, la pittrice rielabora e riformula le esperienze e le conoscenze acquisite in un linguaggio proprio non ascrivibile nello specifico ad un’unica corrente.

Countless tales entwine the cultural landscape of Ticino. For centuries, romantic notions of its natural beauty, its Mediterranean climate and its “Italianità” have not only drawn visitors to this canton but also enthralled artists. A constant stream of rich and diverse artistic approaches flow through and shape the cultural landscape of Ticino. Such diversity is due in large part to its unique geographical setting. Situated entirely to the south of the Alps, it has, over the course of centuries, developed a close cultural proximity to Italy, where many artists from Ticino have studied and worked. The rise in tourism to Switzerland during the 18th and 19th centuries has also left its mark on Ticino, making it an increasingly iconic subject of picturesque landscape portrayals.
The opening of the Gotthard Tunnel in 1882 provided, for the first time, a rapid and direct link between the regions north and south of the Alps, which led to increasing travel and connections between artists. As a result of this newfound mobility between north and south, the region became a of centre of creative activity and a meeting point for a wide range of personalities and positions, as evidenced by the foundation of such diverse artistic groups as “Der Grosse Bär” and “I Solidali”, or the activities relating to the artists’ colony of Monte Verità. Now, the Graphische Sammlung ETH Zürich presents a selection from its own holdings showcasing the highlights of creative activity in and around the canton of Ticino from the 17th century to the present day. On the one hand, the exhibition refer-ences Ticino as a motif: in landscape portrayal, as a hub of artistic production andas an important element in the lives of artists. On the other hand, Ticino is referenced as a cultural space that has provided a base for artists, forming a meeting place for encounters between a wide range of different attitudes and approaches.
The exhibition presents works by Ticino artists and by others with an affinity to the region. The works shown range from the ink drawings of Pier Francesco Mola (1612–1666) and the land-scapes of Ludwig Hess (1760–1800) to works by Hans Arp (1889–1966), Imre Reiner (1900–1987), or Anita Spinelli (1908–2010), as well as prints by Mark Tobey (1890–1976) and Flavio Paolucci (*1934) produced by the Lafranca workshop, and even architectural designs by Mario Botta (*1934).

"We aspired to a voice" – Anita Spinelli
The exhibition celebrates women through the painting of Anita Spinelli. With observation and introspection, vindication and quest for freedom, her work maintains today all its contemporaneity. With a selection of works from 1933 to 2006 centered on the female figure, the exhibition unveils the artist's continuous dialogue with herself and society.
Anita Spinelli's eyes are critical, sometimes joyful, or grieved, but always empathetic, and never reductive. The artist captures and shares the profound emotion of her characters, revealing their fragility as well as her own disquiets.
For Anita Spinelli, making art is everything. The need for a voice that is independent from social conventions and gender roles is met in her search for expressive freedom – a path that is both tormented and enthusiastic in its quest for autonomy.

Opening:

Museo Fondazione Mecrì
Via Mondacce 207
6648 Minusio
La Fondazione Mecrì is pleased to announce the next opening, Sunday 26 March from 11.00 a.m., dedicated to the painter Anita Spinelli (1908 Balerna - 2010 Mendrisio), one of the first Swiss artists to have attended the Brera Academy in Milan between the 1920s and 1930s. Throughout her long artistic career, the luminous and subtle colour is the indisputable protagonist, in a constant pursuit of freedom and in any conceivable mode of expression. At the centre of her interests is the human being, its thinking and feeling, its evolution in space and time, in its most diverse expressions, in other words in any sign of life.
![La Testa, tecnica mista, 1995. Collezione Quadreria]()
![Profili, tecnica mista, 1970. Collezione Quadreria]()
![La Lambada, tecnica mista, 1989. Collezione Quadreria]()
The exhibition particularly focuses on works designated as 'tecnica mista (mixed media)', i.e. mainly graphic works, etchings, onto which the artist intervened with colour and ink, creating a personal new form of expression. Many of the works are being exhibited for the first time.
The show features around 30 works created from the 1970s onwards. Although one can glimpse a reminiscence of expressionist graphic works with a German influence, as is common in her paintings, Anita Spinelli's graphic work is characterised by her research, which derives from and approaches known styles, but never settles into a preconceived form. Rather, the artist elaborates and reformulates her experiences and acquired knowledge into a language of her own that cannot be attributed specifically to a single movement.
