Le Giornate degli Archivi d'Artista – [Artist Archives Days]

The Giornate degli Archivi d’Artista, promoted by Open Care and the Filippo de Pisis Association were study seminars dedicated to the Archives of twentieth century Italian artists.

The initiative, which in its first two editions was supported by the Fondazione Piero Manzoni and the Centro Studi Giorgio Morandi, was created with the aim of valorising the work of the Archives and activating a comparative study platform, during periodic meetings, of subjects of common interest such as the creation of a reasoned catalogue, the problem of fakes, the various archiving procedures and authentication.

The debate, following the first two encounters, generated the creation of the Associazione Nazionale degli Archivi d’Artista [National Association of Artists’ Archives], formed in December 2014 and to which numerous Italian archives adhered.
