           Talking with Massimo, the names of great artists and extraordinary events alternate with the memories of a child, a boy and a family whilst the art historian remains delightfully disoriented. I sit on one of the benches to take notes, starting with the first question.

            of an art workshop like that of the Arazzeria. For Massimo, until he interfaced with the world of connoisseurs, scholars and enthusiasts, his experience was that of any other boy – and now a man – growing up with personal memories. “I fell asleep listening to
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

            . I knew that my aunt and mother, together with the other weavers, were producing those sounds. It was reassuring. In particular, I would listen to the dull sound produced by the metal comb hitting the weft, to fasten the threads once and for all.

           Within a few months, they decided to carry on Ugo’s project together. “I spoke extensively with my aunt and with my mother. We considered what to do, what Ugo would have done. We could sell, given the Arazzeria is an extremely sought-after luxury brand. But we wanted to go on. Aunt Katia, Ugo’s wife, is as tough as nails and so is my mother. These two svelte women are quite reserved but hide nerves of steel and an iron will. Their determination is exemplary.”

            Nel marzo del 1801 la Certosa cessò di esistere come entità giuridica, il governo napoleonico ne dichiarò la soppressione, sciogliendo la comunità che qui viveva e che in parte si aggregò alla Certosa di Casotto o ritirandosi a vita privata.

           Parlare con Massimo è così, i nomi di grandi artisti e straordinari eventi si alternano ai ricordi di bimbo, di ragazzo e di famiglia. Lo storico dell’arte resta piacevolmente disorientato. Mi siedo su una delle panche e prendo nota, iniziando con la prima domanda.

            di una bottega d’arte come l’Arazzeria. Per Massimo, fino a quando non si interfaccia con il pubblico di conoscitori, studiosi e appassionati, la sua esperienza è uguale a quella di ogni altro ragazzo, oggi uomo, che cresce, tra ricordi personali. “Mi addormentavo ascoltando il

            When he was forced to leave his position due to health reasons, he tried to pass his subsequent stay in hospital dedicated to what he liked most: reading the magazine founded by Gio Ponti, Domus, a publication that you can still find on newsstands today. He also decided to sit the exams for a diploma in art and enrol in the Faculty of Architecture. At that time, being a chartered surveyor did not allow direct access to study architecture, hence it was necessary to obtain eligibility in advance by sitting the exams at an art-focused high school. Self-taught in all subjects, Ugo Scassa decided that for figure drawing, it would be better to turn to a painter friend,

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            It was so that Scassa came into direct contact with a highly buzzing world, being the Turin art scene in the immediate post-war period. And it was all thanks to the mediation of Filippo Scroppo himself, as a member of the Turin MAC (Movimento Arte Concreta, or the Concrete Art Movement), who played an important role in elaborating the synthesis of arts, contributing significantly to attempt to break down the boundaries between the arts and techniques.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            It was Scroppo who actually proposed that he and Scassa work together, convincing the latter to take over part of an art workshop, mainly dedicated to the production of carpets. It was the Redan factory in Pinerolo, managed by Signora Tron, who also owned what we now call the showroom in Turin, on Via Viotti (right in the city centre, near Piazza San Carlo to be exact), with an exhibition space furnished by the brilliant hand of the

      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            The production of
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           hand-knotted Redan carpets
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            was based on preparatory drawings, the so-called cartoons, signed by contemporary painters. However, it was not the carpet production that was struggling but rather the management of the exhibition space, which Signora Tron couldn’t oversee whilst trying to keep up with the rest of the work. She had thus turned to her friend in the hope of finding a buyer for the shop, thanks to his place in the artistic environment.

            Scroppo evidently made a few quick calculations and decided to go and see her in person, involving even the young Ugo Scassa in that trip, which would end up changing his life forever. The structure, the environment, the hint of potential and creativity excited the pair so much that they decided to take over the shop and transform it into an art gallery. The enthusiasm of both convinced Signora Tron not to sell the business entirely but rather to expand it with the addition of the two new partners. The year 1956 saw the official launch of the

      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            As we said, it was a natural path, a process of gradual approaching through to complete identification. Ugo Scassa abandoned his career as a chartered surveyor in the midst of a full economic and construction boom, but would make his living in art. He would produce art. This was despite the strong disappointment of his father, Renato Scassa, employed at the Cassa di Risparmio di Asti, who would have preferred his son to have a position similar to his own, with a job in a bank. And we are faced with a story of disappointments between father and son that is all too common in the art world, so much so that it reminds us of the sorrow and regret of another parent, a certain Ludovico di Leonardo Buonarroti Simoni.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;

           Who do we exhibit? Fontana!

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            A year later, in 1957, whilst organising the Lucio Fontana exhibition, Scassa and Scroppo went to the artist’s studio in Milan and, intent on choosing the artworks to be exhibited, were left alone to finish their selection, leaving with the concierge the keys to that space that would make any art curator happy today, wrapping the paintings in blankets, tying them firmly to the roof racks of their car before heading off to Turin with the first famous
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           gashes by Fontana
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            over their heads. 
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            These exhibitions, these experiments if we want return to that era that was still delightfully open-minded, allowed Scassa to personally explore a world that had always fascinated him but which until then, he had only known through specialised magazines. This proximity to the world of contemporary art helped transform him into a perceptive man of art, assimilated and at ease in the cultural environment. In the gallery, Redan carpets and fabrics continued to be exhibited, based on drawings by Sottsass Jr., by
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           &#xD;

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           and other exponents of Avant-Garde Art, their great worth such as to be bought by the Olivetti, Agnesi, Agnelli and Rizzoli families.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Our path, however, has not even reached its starting point. In fact, it must be said that tapestry art at that time certainly did not occupy Scassa’s thoughts as he dealt with the preparation of exhibitions inside Il Prisma along with the administrative management of the gallery, moving in the direction of interior design and the realisation of furnishing items. We are at the beginning of that befitting experience that we call Made in Italy and which takes its first steps here, exploring the world of design.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Meanwhile, the production of carpets continued in Signora Tron’s Pinerolo workshop. The items produced were welcomed by the market, yet a disagreement soured relations between Ugo Scassa and Signora Tron. Indeed, the latter seems to have had a strong artistic sense, a great technical ability but difficulties in entrepreneurial management and delays in the delivery of the works ended up frustrating the clientèle, resulting in requests gradually drying up. When Redan definitively closed in 1957, Scassa took over the business, gradually moving away from his involvement in the gallery.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          It was at this time that Ugo Scassa decided
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           to transfer the workshop to Asti
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          , initially availing of only two looms, located first on Via Carducci and then Via Arrigo Boito. When the owner of the building on Via Boito had constructed the building, it had been designed to host a cinema, which never came to fruition. Thus, Ugo Scassa was able to utilise a large hall without any columns, having all the space necessary within for the
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           production of carpets
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          . 
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

            &#xD;
        &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Yes, Ugo Scassa initially continued the creation of carpets, overcoming every obstacle that appeared before him, one of which was managing the personnel, never having had to deal with manpower before. But his courage in taking this step was bolstered by Signora Tron’s daughter, Lucietta, an expert in carpet manufacturing, who undertook to teach this new profession to the young women who had been selected and sent by the Employment Office.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Scassa intended to have Signora Tron continue with directing the laboratory and with the supervision but she made very few visits to Asti and an error in the realisation of
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           a carpet commissioned by Elena Olivetti
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           , Adriano’s sister, pushed Scassa to make the final decision. He definitively ceased their collaboration, choosing to continue on his own. The carpets produced in the Asti workshop would be under the name of Italia Disegno, under his supervision and with his unwavering dedication. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           When the Pinerolo workshop closed, Signora Tron tried to continue production activities, attempting to start over with a small carpet production, availing of the few looms still in her possession, yet without achieving any notable results. After a while, she asked if Ugo Scassa would like to buy the rest of the equipment and so after taking over her part of the company, Scassa bought the remaining frames.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           And so it was that a young chartered surveyor, who moved to Turin to realise his dream of becoming an architect, entered the world of art. Bringing his passion for the contemporary with him.

           Over time, the Arazzeria Scassa has paved its own artistic path, uniting various pictorial routes, reinforced by Ugo Scassa’s instinct for an extensive period of time. Amongst the artists most loved by the Asti tapestry maker, selecting from the various national and international names, we find that of an artist born in Switzerland, ever attentive to the importance of colour and who managed to develop a personal style influenced by Expressionism, Cubism and Surrealism: Paul Klee.

            to work with colours, a sort of painstaking weaving, exactly like those carried out by the weavers under his direction. Indeed, he considered Klee’s works particularly suitable for becoming a tapestry, realising nineteen works in just eleven years. He found Klee’s art to be particularly pleasing. Each new work by the artist transposed and initiated on the

The Bauhaus principles were initially the mutual collaboration between teacher and pupil, a subject of stringent democracy that led to the abolition of the school in 1933 under the command of the Nazi regime.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            As a reaction to the prevailing cultural and artistic world at the time, the basic idea was the

      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            , in the desire to combine this with the nascent technology. Proceeding from these premises, the Bauhaus saw the construction of a non-elitist artistic culture being trialled, leading to the

      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

            called upon the artists whose experiments were more advanced, for example Vassily Kandinsky and, in the period 1920–1921, Paul Klee. This bet immediately paid off, giving the artist the opportunity to get in touch with the numerous creative minds partaking in this fundamental experience.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h4&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Klee’s art borders that diaphragm that divides and separates the world of dreams from reality. Ugo Scassa liked this aspect very much – a stroke, a somewhat childish drawing that evokes fairy-like and enchanting locations, at an unspecified moment in time, in which no element helps us to understand if it is day or night, free from temporal associations, a sort of archetype, a primordial nature.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h4&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          According to Ugo Scassa, this was all an added bonus, a value, a nuance in the
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           nuance
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          . Due to his truly innovative way of understanding art, Klee is considered as one of the founding fathers of the idea of colour in contemporary art. Indeed, a famous study on the theory of colours in the name of the Swiss artist is to be recalled. The analysis was based on a
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           prospectus divided into six parts
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          , in which the complementary aspects are placed in a rapport with the primaries, according to an idea that recalls the
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           principle of movement
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          , the interaction between the various colours based on dynamic transitions. Movement and transition are perceived by the sight and by the soul.
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h4&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            For Klee, who considered art and theory inseparably linked, movement flowed into compositions through gradations of colour whilst being intrinsically linked to colour combinations.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h4&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          This idea of
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           movement and the action of colour
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          undoubtedly captured Ugo Scassa’s feelings of art entirely, prompting him to dedicate a group of works in high-warp woven wool to the Swiss artist. In his productions,
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           blue
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          is rampant, present in many shades, almost a totemic colour halfway between emptiness, the daytime sky and the indefinite space of night-time. 
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h1&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The Bauhaus and the weaving lessons
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h1&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          Klee began teaching at the Bauhaus on 13th May 1921, initially with a course on practical composition lasting a fortnight, before kicking off his first regular semester in November of that year. During the winter of 1925–1926 and through to 1930, Klee held a design course, alternating lessons and exercises then adding a textile design course more or less in the same period. Amongst the students were two notable names in the history of weaving and tapestry,
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Anni Albers and Gunta Stölzl
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          . 
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          Klee’s weaving lessons were particularly dedicated to the study and planimetric design of surfaces, teaching his colour theory and avoiding the dogmatic aspects of teaching as much as possible, allowing students to develop specific skills. Proportions, reflected images, shapes and primary colours were all part of his educational programme. 
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          Thus, Klee was not only one of Ugo Scassa’s favourite artists but also represents the ideal point of contact between an
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           art house
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          such as the Arazzeria Scassa – a pl

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          nd dissemination of art – and the Bauhaus, in some respects one of the most innovative movements in design of the last century. 
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            Bear in mind that the
           &#xD;

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            was likely the most progressive and successful at the time. Its weavers, teachers and students invented the concept of contemporary textile design, in a world in which weaving and art were continuously intertwined, driven by the rapport between drawing and weaving, as still happens today in the
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h4&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Indeed, in the Certosa we find the same operating principles, the exploration of the wonderful qualities of the different textures and fibres that can be transcribed during the practical deed of working into important design details, allowing a real artistic expression, in which whoever creates the design inspires the weaver and vice-versa, with instructions on composition and form, on the theories of colour and on rhythmic studies.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h4&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

          The priceless diaries of one of his pupils,
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Gunta Stölzl
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           ,
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          recall how Paul Klee had a
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            great love of textiles
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          and whilst the weavers were incredibly influenced by his use of colour, Klee’s paintings were in turn influenced by the creations of the weaving. Klee always showed a great interest in weaving, intrigued by the
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           subtleties of colour
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          that arise when intertwining warp and weft threads. In his in-class interactions with student weavers, Klee began to use increasingly unusual fabrics in his paintings, including cotton, jute and silk, to explore the dialogue between painting and the many distinct textures of the various substrates. 
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h1&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           An exploration from polyphony to painting
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h1&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          This constant desire to explore and not to take any possible approach for granted led Klee to continually modify his teaching method, giving some demonstrations then leaving the students to develop drawings and works. Paul Klee himself bought elaborate fabrics produced by the Bauhaus, for example a
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           rug created by Ida Kerkovius
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          and a
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           cloth woven by Otti Berger
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          . Artists like
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Kandinsky and Klee
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          , with his musical background, perceived creative acts as intimately connected – music recalls painting, painting evokes the gesture of one who is seated at the loom as they patiently weave.
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          Klee was the son of
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           musician parents
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          . His father played, his mother sang and Klee learned the violin. Indeed, he had even toyed with the idea of pursuing a career in music. According to Paul Klee, the very idea of
          &#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           polyphony
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    
          , underlying music as it is understood in the most common sense as being that type of musical writing that involves the simultaneous use of several musical themes, can be applied to painting. Even if unmoving on the canvas, on the fabric, on the cloth, the images can render perceptible the sensation of becoming temporal, even more so than listening to a piece of music. 
         &#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h4&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           This vibration of movement can also be found in the works produced on the looms of the Arazzeria Scassa and even more in the artworks created, in interpreting the movement it could be said, of the beloved artist Paul Klee.
           &#xD;

           A few weeks ago the research work in the Archives of the Arazzeria Scassa began: among sheets and testimonies, the most important events and the letters of the great artists, at the beginning of their career, come back to light.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h3&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           History is made in the Archives, scholars know it well! And so the Arazzeria Scassa has in recent weeks resumed the study and analysis of its Archive documents, in search of information that can help the reconstruction of events related to the artistic world, Italian and international, starting from the end of the Fifties. In the same way, the hundreds of texts kept inside Scassa Library are being cataloged, a collection that continues to update from year to year.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            The documents date back to the beginning of

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            . These are years of great ferment and extremely formative for Ugo Scassa, who finds himself catapulted into an unprecedented creative universe, among the innovations of
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           Lucio Fontana, Asger Jorn, Arnaldo and Giò Pomodoro.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            From the years of his debut at the Galleria Il Prisma in via Viotti in Turin, the documents follow the succession of artists, exhibited inside the Gallery, who later became friends of Ugo Scassa. Thanks to archival documents, it is possible to trace the alternation of the direction of the gallery and the birth of
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           , finding intact the bands that were applied to the carpets produced at that time. In the same way it has been possible to trace at least part of Ugo Scassa's notes, the tight schedule set for the work on the famous tapestries for the Ocean Liners and his project for a weaving school.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Thus, important testimonies of an unprecedented artistic past come to light, now exhibited in the most important museums of Contemporary Art in the world and at the time at his debut. The cataloging will continue in the coming months and it will be possible to update on the most important discoveries also during the exhibitions and activities that the Tapestry has planned for the coming months.

           Da alcune settimane è iniziato il lavoro di ricerca negli Archivi dell’Arazzeria Scassa: tra fogli e testimonianze, tornano alla luce gli eventi più importati e le lettere dei grandi artisti, all’esordio della loro carriera.

           La Storia si fa negli Archivi, lo sanno bene gli addetti ai lavori! E così l’Arazzeria Scassa ha ripreso proprio in queste settimane lo studio e all’analisi dei suoi documenti d’Archivio, alla ricerca di informazioni che possano aiutare la ricostruzione degli avvenimenti legati al mondo artistico, italiano ed internazionale, a partire dalla fine degli anni Cinquanta. Allo stesso modo sono in fase di catalogazione le centinaia di testi conservati nella Biblioteca dell’Arazzeria, collezione che continua ad aggiornarsi di anno in anno.

Allo stesso modo è stato possibile rintracciare almeno una parte degli appunti di Ugo Scassa, la serrata tabella di marcia impostata per il lavoro ai celebri arazzi dei transatlantici e il suo progetto per una scuola di tessitura.

I principi del Bauhaus erano prima di tutto la mutua collaborazione tra maestro e allievo, argomento di stringente democrazia che portò alla soppressione della scuola nel 1933 per volere del regime nazista.

Fu questa un’esperienza che si dimostrò da subito importante e diede l’occasione all’artista di entrare in contatto con i numerosi creativi che parteciparono a questo fondamentale esperienza.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           L’arte di Klee cammina lungo quel diaframma che divide e separa il mondo dei sogni dalla realtà e ad Ugo Scassa questo aspetto piaceva molto: un tratto, un disegno per certi versi infantile che evoca luoghi fatati e d’incanto, in un momento imprecisato nel tempo, in cui nessun elemento ci aiuta a capire se è giorno o è notte, senza connotazioni temporali, una sorta di archetipo, una natura ai primordi.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
                        
            Secondo Ugo Scassa tutto questo era un valore aggiunto, una ricchezza. Una sfumatura nella

      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

            . Per il suo modo così innovativo di intendere l’arte Klee è considerato uno dei padri fondatori dell’idea di colore nell’arte contemporanea, a nome dell’artista svizzero va infatti ricordato un famoso studio sulla teoria dei colori. Si tratta di una analisi basata su un

            Per Klee, che considerava arte e teoria inseparabilmente legate, il movimento fluiva nelle composizioni attraverso le gradazioni di colore, il movimento era intrinsecamente legato agli accostamenti di colore.

            Klee iniziò ad insegnare al Bauhaus il 13 maggio 1921, inizialmente in un corso di composizione pratica quindicinale, dando il via al suo primo semestre regolare nel novembre dello stesso anno. Nel corso dell’inverno 1925-1926 e fino al 1930, Klee tenne un corso di design, alternando lezioni ed esercitazioni e, più o meno nello stesso periodo, aggiungendo il corso di design tessile, avendo tra gli altri allievi due nomi di rilievo per la storia della tessitura e dell’arazzo stesso,

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Le sue lezioni di tessitura erano dedicate in modo particolare allo studio e al disegno planimetrico delle superfici, insegnando la sua teoria del colore ed evitando il più possibile l’aspetto dogmatico dell’insegnamento, permettendo agli allievi lo sviluppo delle specifiche capacità. Proporzioni, immagini riflesse, forme e colori primari, tutto questo rientrava nel suo programma didattico.

            e mentre i tessitori erano incredibilmente influenzati dal suo uso del colore, i dipinti di Klee erano a loro volta influenzati dalle creazioni del laboratorio di tessitura. Klee dimostrò sempre un grande interesse per la tessitura, intrigato dalle

            che si verificano incrociando fili di ordito e fili di trama e interagendo in classe con gli studenti tessitori, Klee iniziò a utilizzare tessuti sempre più insoliti nei suoi dipinti, tra cui cotone, iuta e seta, per esplorare il dialogo tra la pittura e le molte trame distinte dei diversi supporti.

            Il desiderio continuo di esplorare e di non dare per scontato nessun possibile approccio, portava Klee a modificare continuamente il suo metodo di insegnamento, dando alcune dimostrazioni e lasciando agli studenti il compito di elaborare disegni e opere. Paul Klee stesso comprò tessuti elaborati e prodotti dal Bauhaus, ad esempio un

           , sottesa alla musica come la intendiamo nella sua accezione più comune e cioè quel tipo di scrittura musicale che prevede l’uso simultaneo di più temi musicali, può essere applicato alla pittura. Anche se ferme sulla tela, sul tessuto, sul panno, le immagini possono rendere percepibile la sensazione del divenire temporale persino più dell’ascolto di un brano musicale.

           Questa vibrazione di movimento la ritroviamo anche nelle opere uscite dai telai dell’Arazzeria Scassa e più ancora nelle opere realizzate, interpretando il movimento verrebbe da dire, dell’amato artista, Paul Klee.

           Il nome dell’Arazzeria Scassa è certamente legato all’arte contemporanea ed è, utilizzando un gioco di significati, inserito all’interno della fitta trama della grande arte del Novecento. Tuttavia c’è un capitolo della storia dell’Arazzeria che merita di essere raccontato. Protagonisti Ugo Scassa e sua moglie Katia, un arazzo di Agnolo Bronzino e una scintillante coupè metallizzata.

           Siamo a Firenze, è il quarto decennio del XVI secolo. Il Granduca Cosimo I de' Medici, seguendo il desiderio di vivificare costantemente l’alto nome dell’arte fiorentina, fonda una manifattura d'arazzi a Firenze, tra le prime istituite in Italia, affidandone la direzione a due maestri arazzieri fiamminghi, Jan Rost e Nicolas Karcher, già in Italia da diversi anni entrambi al servizio degli Estensi a Ferrara.

Esiste in realtà un esplicito riferimento alla vota di Cosimo I de Medici: come Giuseppe, Cosimo aveva conosciuto la triste sorte del tradimento e l’amara esperienza dell’esilio ma, grazie alla forza dell’intelletto e alla capacità di perdonare, era riuscito a riconquistare quanto aveva perduto, dimostrando il proprio potere attraverso la pratica della magnanimità. L’argomento scelto per la realizzazione della preziosa serie di arazzi non è dunque casuale ma studiato a tavolino ed è sotto questa importante spinta che gli arazzieri si imbarcano nella creazione di questi enormi panni tessuti a basso liccio, impiegando come materiali fili di lana, di seta, d’oro e d’argento.

Il lavoro ebbe il plauso dei proprietari delle opere, il restauro talmente minuzioso da risultare irriconoscibile. Era vero però che esperienza sulle opere antiche non ne aveva, disse osservando l’arazzo, una volta giunto a Roma, il panno già staccato dal muro e custodito nei depositi del Quirinale.

           Il contratto di lavoro, grazie ad una serie di accordi, venne firmato poco dopo il Natale del 1972 e l’opera giunse alla Certosa, sede dell’Arazzeria Scassa, ai primi di gennaio dell’anno seguente, lasciando Roma dopo quasi un secolo di permanenza. Le cure prestate dall’atelier astigiano furono lunghe e pazienti, durarono ben quattro anni, più del previsto ma non c’era scelta, quello era il passo che un lavoro del genere poteva permettere. Parti dell’opera infatti erano inconsistenti, si polverizzavano al solo tocco dell’ago e le tessitrici lavorarono al massimo della concentrazione. Ugo Scassa supervisionava, consapevole che non esisteva assicurazione, perché il costo avrebbe superato la spesa del restauro stesso e dunque, trattenendo il fiato, bisognava procedere.

           ; non era assicurato e dunque bisognava prestare la massima attenzione a non commettere errori proprio adesso. Scassa si dichiarò disposto a trasportare l’arazzo a bordo del suo coupé scintillante e metallizzato e dall’altra parte il sovrintendente programmò, per la tranquillità di tutti, la presenza di una scorta della polizia lungo tutto il viaggio. Così l’arazzo mediceo riprese la strada verso Roma, rinnovato e restaurato, pronto ad affrontare altri secoli da opera d’arte tornata a nuova vita.

            partirono per raggiungere Roma, destinazione il Quirinale, per restituire l’arazzo Medici. Aspetto interessante è che probabilmente non tutte le scorte erano state informate che la sorveglianza non era a vantaggio di Ugo Scassa e di Katia. Oggi Catia racconta l’episodio con gli occhi che sorridono ancora molto divertiti dal ricordo.

           Ad una sosta per rifornire di benzina l’auto, quando si allontanarono dalla loro macchina, lasciando le chiavi inserite nell’avviamento per eventuali necessità della scorta, i poliziotti seguirono loro al bar, lasciando la macchina, Agnolo Bronzino, il serbatoio pieno e la macchina pronta a partire, incustoditi. Ugo Scassa sbiancò e riprese il viaggio sufficientemente confuso dall’avvenimento.

Il possesso del diploma da geometra all’epoca non permetteva infatti l’accesso diretto ad Architettura ed era necessario ottenere preventivamente l’idoneità sostenendo gli esami di maturità presso un liceo Artistico. Autodidatta per tutte le materie, Ugo Scassa decise che per il disegno di figura sarebbe stato meglio rivolgersi ad un amico pittore,

           Scassa entrò così in contatto diretto con un mondo in fermento, quello dell’arte torinese dell’immediato Dopoguerra, grazie alla mediazione dello stesso Filippo Scroppo, membro del MAC torinese (Movimento Arte Concreta) che svolse un ruolo importante nell’elaborazione della sintesi delle arti, contribuendo in modo significativo al tentativo di abbattere i confini tra le arti e le tecniche.

           Sarà proprio Scroppo a proporre a Scassa di lavorare insieme, convincendolo a rilevare parte di un laboratorio d’arte, dedicato principalmente alla produzione di tappeti. Si trattava della manifattura Redan di Pinerolo, gestito dalla signora Tron, che possedeva anche quello che noi oggi chiamiamo show room, a Torino, in via Viotti (zona centralissima, vicina Piazza San Carlo per intenderci), spazio espositivo arredato dalla mano geniale dell’

Si era così rivolta all’amico nella speranza di trovare, grazie alla sua posizione nell’ambiente artistico, un acquirente per il negozio.

            Scroppo evidentemente fece rapidi calcoli e decise di andare a vederlo di persona, coinvolgendo in quella gita, che gli avrebbe cambiato per sempre la vita, anche il giovane Ugo Scassa. La struttura, l’ambiente, il sentore di potenzialità e creatività animarono talmente i due che decisero di rilevare il negozio e trasformarlo in una galleria d’arte. L’entusiasmo di entrambi convinse la signora Tron a non cedere del tutto l’attività, quanto piuttosto ad ampliarla con l’ingresso dei due nuovi soci; siamo arrivati così all’anno 1956, data di nascita della

           Strada naturale, dicevamo, processo di avvicinamento graduale, fino ad una completa identificazione. Ugo Scassa non seguirà più la carriera di geometra, in pieno boom economico ed edilizio, ma vivrà di arte. Produrrà arte. A dispetto del forte disappunto del padre, Renato Scassa, impiegato presso la Cassa di Risparmio di Asti, che avrebbe invece preferito per il figlio una collocazione simile alla sua, un lavoro in banca. E siamo davanti ad una storia di disappunti tra padre e figlio che nel mondo dell’arte ricorre quasi come un topos, tanto da ricordarci il dispiacere ed il rammarico di un altro genitore, un certo Ludovico di Leonardo Buonarroti Simoni.

            Un anno dopo, nel 1957, per organizzare la mostra di Lucio Fontana, Scassa e Scroppo raggiunsero lo studio milanese dell’artista e, intenti a scegliere le opere d’arte da esporre, rimasero alla fine da soli a terminare la selezione, lasciando le chiavi di quello spazio che oggi farebbe felice qualsiasi curatore d’arte, alla portinaia, avvolgendo poi i quadri in coperte, legandoli saldamente al portapacchi dell’auto, sfrecciando alla volta di Torino con i primi celeberrimi

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
                        
            Queste esposizioni, queste esperienze se vogliamo corsare e all’epoca ancora meravigliosamente spregiudicate, permisero a Scassa di conoscere personalmente un mondo che, da sempre lo affascinava, ma che fino a quel momento aveva seguito solo tramite le riviste specializzate. La vicinanza con il mondo dell’arte contemporanea contribuì a farne il sensibile uomo d’arte, inserito e a suo agio nell’ambiente culturale. Nella galleria continuarono ad essere esposti tappati tessuti a firma Redan, su disegni dello stesso Sottsass Jr., di

           ed altri esponenti dell’arte d’avanguardia, il loro costo piuttosto elevato tanto da poter essere comprati dalle famiglie Olivetti, Agnesi, Agnelli, Rizzoli.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Il nostro percorso però non è ancora giunto al punto di partenza. Va infatti detto che l’arte arazziera a quell’epoca non occupava certo i pensieri di Scassa, si occupava piuttosto dell’allestimento di mostre all’interno del Prisma e della gestione amministrativa della galleria, avvicinandosi alla progettazione d’interni ed alla realizzazione di oggetti d’arredamento. Siamo agli inizi di quella felice esperienza che chiamiamo Made in Italy e che muove qui i primi passi, esplorando il mondo del design.

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Intanto la produzione di tappeti continuava nel laboratorio pinerolese della signora Tron ed i manufatti godevano di buon mercato, tuttavia un certo dissapore rese difficili i rapporti tra Ugo Scassa e la signora Tron. Quest’ultima infatti sembra possedesse uno spiccato senso artistico, una grande capacità tecnica, ma difficoltà nella gestione imprenditoriale e i ritardi nelle consegne dei manufatti finirono per spazientire non poco la clientela che a poco a poco esaurì le richieste e quando nel 1957 la Redan chiuse definitivamente, Scassa rilevò l’attività, allontanandosi progressivamente dalla partecipazione in galleria.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
                        
            È questo il momento in cui Ugo Scassa decise di trasferire il

            , utilizzando inizialmente soltanto due telai, collocati prima in via Carducci e poi in via Arrigo Boito: il proprietario dell’edificio di via Boito, quando fece costruire il fabbricato lo progettò per ospitare un cinema, mai realizzato, così Ugo Scassa ebbe la possibilità di utilizzare un vasto salone, privo di colonne, all’interno del quale posizionare tutti gli spazi necessari alla
           
                      &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Sì, perché inizialmente Ugo Scassa proseguì la creazione di tappeti, superando uno ad uno i problemi che gli si posero davanti, uno dei quali fu la gestione del personale, non avendo mai avuto a che fare prima con la manodopera. Ma all’audacia di questo passo venne in aiuto la figlia della signora Tron, Lucietta, esperta nella lavorazione dei tappeti, che si impegnò ad insegnare alle ragazze, selezionate ed inviate dall’Ufficio di Collocamento, il nuovo mestiere.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
                        
            Nei piani e nelle idee di Scassa, la signora Tron avrebbe continuato a svolgere il lavoro di direzione del laboratorio e supervisione, ma la donna fece in realtà ben poche visite ad Asti e un errore nella realizzazione di un
           
                      &#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           , sorella di Adriano, spinse Scassa a prendere la decisione definitiva. Avrebbe interrotto definitivamente la collaborazione, avrebbe continuato da solo, i tappeti prodotti nel laboratorio astigiano avrebbero recato la firma Italia Disegno, la sua supervisione e il suo costante impegno.
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           Chiuso il laboratorio di Pinerolo, la signora Tron tentò comunque di continuare l’attività produttiva, provò a ripartire con una minima produzione di tappeti, aveva ancora con sé alcuni telai, senza tuttavia raggiungere risultati ragguardevoli. Dopo poco propose ad Ugo Scassa di acquistare le ultime macchine e così dopo aver rilevato la sua parte di società, Scassa comprò i telai rimanenti.  
          
                    &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
                      
           E fu così che un giovane geometra, trasferitosi a Torino per realizzare il sogno di diventare architetto, entrò nel mondo dell’arte. Portando con sé la sua passione per il contemporaneo.

            The rooms that host the event are those of an important Venetian palace in Campo San Maurizio,

           , built between the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Centuries by the will of the Pasqualini family, of Milanese origins, a residence that for a long time housed the rich collections of art that the family had accumulated over time, thanks to the silk trade. With the Arazzeria Scassa, other threads are back, no silk, but wool with infinite colors, woven on a loom.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The basic idea is to tell, through visual language, the adventure of art that renews itself, through new forms, through design, tradition and innovation at the same time. With an ancient language such as that of the tapestry, Arazzeria Scassa reinterpreted Art, especially abstract, of the 20th Century. Ugo Scassa knew and had direct contact with many of the artists present in the exhibition and for many he was a friend, not only a colleague or a gallerist.

            The organization of the exhibition involved numerous museums and required a considerable effort from all to achieve the best result. Even today Massimo Bilotta remembers with amazement the incredible high water that rose at the end of the inauguration, which took place in the presence of Professor

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h2&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           "The city" says Bilotta "seemed bewitched, slowly conquered by the water. Every now and then I left the exhibition halls to check the situation in the Camp and hour after hour the water rose steadily ".

           The exhibition in Venice was an opportunity to pick up some tapestries, for example some works by Umberto Mastroianni and restore them on the occasion of the exhibition. In fact, this is what several collectors wanted, who in anticipation of the loan, asked to the skilled hands of Katia and Franca Alcaro to restore the splendor of textures and colors. Katia, Ugo Scassa's wives together with her sister Franca, Massimo's mother, have worked at the Arazzeria since its beginnings, when Ugo Scassa won the prestigious contract for the construction of the tapestries for the Leonardo da Vinci transatlantic liner.

            During the various stages of the exhibition, we sometimes stopped to think how much the tapestry really is "the fresco of the nomad" as
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            wrote, a great form of "flexible art", capable of adapting to the many curves of a medieval palace as well as the sometimes rather narrow needs of a ship. The tapestry can be rolled up, we are always behind Le Corbusier's words, it can be transferred and brought back elsewhere and this was well known by the great Castellans of the Middle Ages, who entrusted the prestige and beauty of their homes to the tapestry.

           , the study of the visiting path, the adaptation of the contents, the desire to convey the importance of a century, the Twentieth Century, so incredibly rich in meanings of art, so dense, sometimes so difficult to explain, to convey. We have often stopped to think of Ugo Scassa, his beginnings with Il Prisma Gallery in via Viotti in Turin, his difficulties but also his unshakable determination to make art in his life, his message, his testimony, today a heritage to be preserved and continued.
          &#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            We observed, silently mingled in the audience, several visitors fascinated and almost hypnotized by the color of the tapestries, by the dimensions, by the subtle play of shades that echoes, amplifies and magnifies the painter's gesture, astonished as if they were in front of a

            , an explosive expansion of the finished, closed and conscripted dimensions of the canvas, which become a real dimension in the tapestry, enough to lose the sense of balance.

           , costruito tra il XIV e il XV secolo per volontà della famiglia Pasqualini, di origini milanesi, residenza che ospitò per lungo tempo le ricche collezioni d’arte che la famiglia aveva accumulato nel tempo, grazie al commercio della seta. Con l’Arazzeria Scassa tornano così altri fili, non più di seta, ma la lana dagli infiniti colori, tessuta a telaio. 
          &#xD;

           L’idea di fondo è quella di raccontare, attraverso il linguaggio visivo, l’avventura dell’arte che rinnova sé stessa, per mezzo di nuove forme, tramite il disegno, la tradizione e al contempo l’innovazione. Con un linguaggio antico come quello dell’arazzo, l’Arazzeria Scassa rivisita l’arte, soprattutto astratta, del Novecento. Ugo Scassa conobbe ed ebbe contatti diretti con molti degli artisti presenti nella mostra e per molti fu un amico, non sono un collega o un gallerista.

            L’organizzazione della mostra ha coinvolto numerose realtà museali e ha richiesto un notevole sforzo da parte di tutti per raggiungere il miglior risultato possibile. Ancora oggi Massimo Bilotta ricorda con stupore l’incredibile acqua alta che si sollevò al termine dell’inaugurazione, avvenuta alla presenza del professor
           &#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h2&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           “La città” racconta Bilotta “sembrava stregata, lentamente vinta dall’acqua. Ogni tanto lasciavo le sale della mostra per verificare la situazione nel Campo e ora dopo ora l’acqua è salita, in maniera costante”. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           La mostra a Venezia è stata l’occasione per riprendere in mano alcuni arazzi, ad esempio alcune opere di Umberto Mastroianni e restaurarle in occasione dell’esposizione. Così hanno voluto infatti diversi collezionisti, che in previsione del prestito hanno chiesto alle sapienti mani di Katia e Franca Alcaro di ripristinare lo splendore di trame e colori. Katia, mogli di Ugo Scassa insieme alla sorella Franca, madre di Massimo, hanno lavorato presso l’Arazzeria fin dal suo esordio, quando Ugo Scassa vince il prestigioso appalto per la realizzazione degli arazzi per il transatlantico Leonardo da Vinci.

            I giorni prima dell’inaugurazione sono stati frenetici, con le ultime opere d’arte da sistemare, in modo particolare l’enorme tappeto realizzato da Ugo Scassa per l’archistar
           &#xD;

           , appeso quasi alla sommità della parete di una sala per buona parte dedicata al punto d’incontro tra scultura, disegno, architettura e naturalmente arte tessile. Durante le diverse fasi di allestimento della mostra, ci siamo alle volte soffermati a pensare quanto l’arazzo sia davvero “l’affresco del nomade” come scriveva Le Corbusier, una grande forma “d’arte flessibile”, capace di adattarsi alle molte curve di un palazzo medievale così come alle necessità, talvolta piuttosto anguste, di una nave. L’arazzo può essere arrotolato, siamo sempre dietro alle parole di Le Corbusier, può essere trasferito e ricondotto altrove e questo ben lo sapevano i grandi castellani del Medioevo, che proprio all’arazzo affidavano il prestigio e la bellezza delle loro dimore. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

           , lo studio del percorso di visita, l’adattamento dei contenuti, il desiderio di trasmettere l’importanza di un secolo, il Novecento, così incredibilmente ricco di significati d’arte, così denso, alle volte così difficile da spiegare, da trasmettere. Spesso ci si è fermati a pensare ad Ugo Scassa, ai suoi esordi nella Galleria Il Prisma di via Viotti a Torino, le sue difficoltà ma anche la sua determinazione incrollabile a fare dell’arte la sua vita, il suo messaggio, la sua testimonianza, oggi patrimonio da preservare e continuare.

            , una dilatazione esplosiva delle dimensioni finite, chiuse e coscritte della tela, ma che nell’arazzo diventano vera e propria dimensione, tanto da perdere il senso dell’equilibrio.
