\u2018Another history of art is possible: the history of the victors, whose ideas fuelled and directed the future.\u2019<\/p>\n
The history of art has been written by the victors, i.e. the artists who were able to impose their own scale of values. But certainly the evolution of events and ideas has not been determined exclusively by these, since, in fact, history has often been nourished by the thinking of those who, at some point in their earthly lives, have been deemed \u2018losers\u2019.
\nStarting from this assumption, through a rewriting of certain events in the history of art, the author investigates artists, centres, patrons who, apparently defeated with respect to the traditional line, are in reality \u2018victorious losers\u2019, because their ideas and works have nourished and directed the evolution of the discipline.
\nControversial, forgotten or misunderstood artists: Flavio Caroli returns to investigate the shadow line of art that has always interested him, of artists such as Lorenzo Lotto, Giuseppe Maria Crespi or Filippo de Pisis, misunderstood by their contemporaries or by art critics, of centres such as the Mantua of the Renaissance or the Milan of the early 19th century, overshadowed by more \u2018fashionable\u2019 cities, or of the ups and downs of great patrons such as the Farnese family.<\/p>\n
E racconta di come artisti e opere apparentemente vinti abbiano potuto comunque portare avanti la loro versione e creare idee tali da influenzare il futuro.<\/p>\n
