KNYGA Keala Jane Jewell Art of Enigma

Discover the fascinating world of Italian art in "Art of Enigma" by Keala Jane Jewell, published by Pennsylvania State University Press in 2004. This compelling 248-page book delves into the lives and works of two pivotal figures in the Metaphysical school of art: Giorgio de Chirico (1888-1978) and his brother, Alberto Savinio (1891-1952). While Giorgio de Chirico is often celebrated for his contributions to surrealism, Jewell sheds light on Alberto Savinio, a talented writer and painter whose influence has been overlooked in discussions of 20th-century Italian culture and politics. This interdisciplinary exploration not only highlights their artistic legacies but also intertwines their stories, providing readers with a deeper understanding of their impact on modernism. Perfect for art enthusiasts, students, and anyone interested in the rich tapestry of Italian art history, "Art of Enigma" invites you to engage with the enigmatic lives of these remarkable artists.
