series of Vaf-Stiftung
In addition to the exhibition-related book production, the VAF Foundation also makes a name for itself with the publication of two further art-history series of publications. One is a series of monographs covering the work of artist personalities close to the Foundation, as well as thematic contributions to specific forms of modern Italian art. In the other, complete oeuvre catalogues of the entire oeuvre of artists or comprehensive general catalogues of collections are compiled and published. In this last-named series, the opulent, 740-page general catalogue of the VAF collection was published in 2012, in which all of the Foundation’s own works are documented in text and images.
However, the constant expansion of the collection has made it necessary that a completely new publication of the complete catalogue is currently in preparation. This will appear in three parts, with the first part being published in 2021 and consisting of an illustrated book and an explanatory book, for which Dr. Daniela Ferrari is responsible.
Art-historical and publishing matters, which are the guidelines for most of the publications, are characterised by the fact that the content focuses on artistic movements, groups and activities that could be described as forgotten or suppressed. For example the “N Group”, the “MID Group”, the “Mec Art” or “Pittura analitica”.
Bilingual principles
In accordance with the bilingual principles of the VAF Foundation, all of these very high-quality printed works are always bilingual in Italian and in German or English, but trilingual editions including English have already been printed under the aegis of the VAF Foundation.
