Giovanni Philippone, Self-Portrait, 1949

Giovanni Philippone (San Giovanni Gemini, Sicily, 1922 – Pavia, 1993) was an Italian painter and sculptor.

Biography

Philippone obtained his high school diploma in Palermo in 1942. In 1946, at the end of World War II, he moved to Milan, where he graduated at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera with the guidance of Aldo Carpi and art historian Eva Thea. During the same year, he won the Francesco Hayez Prize.[1]

In 1950 he moved to Paris, where he attended the Academie des Beaux Art and studied with Leger. In Paris he met and befriended Gino Severini. In 1952 he moved back to Milan and wrote a manifesto about the diatribe between abstraction and realism championing a neutral position that would accept both methodologies as valid. It was presented on the occasion of a group exhibition at the Bergamini gallery.[2]

Philippone's artistic ideas included experimentations with materials such as glass and ceramics and collaborations with architects such as Terzaghi and Magnaghi.[3] He then perfected his engraving technique with his friend and fellow artist Rino Cervi.[4][5]

From 1945 to 1986 he exhibited his works in numerous galleries in Italy and abroad. Philippone passed away in 1993.

In 2013, three permanent rooms dedicated to the work of Philippone were unveiled at the Municipal Building of the former Collegio dei Filippini in Agrigento. The rooms were inaugurated on the occasion of the exhibition organized for the twentieth anniversary of his death.[6][7]
