On 1 January 1919? one hundred years ago? Giorgio de Chirico (1888?1978), one of the 20th century?s most important and controversial artists, arrived in Rome on the overnight train from Ferrara where he had been posted for military service for the last three and a half years. Celebrating the incoming New Year, it also marked the start of a new, all-important chapter in the self-styled Pictor optimus? career, which embraced classicism and the great masters.0The year 1919 would also soon be used by the Surrealists and subsequent critics as the cut-off point for de Chirico?s early Metaphysical painting (1910?18)? a period of creative genius that exerted a key influence on the imminent birth of Surrealism with de Chirico championed as its precursor? and the beginning of his?later? work that spanned nearly sixty years.00Exhibition: Palazzo Ducale, Genova, Italy (29.03-07.07.2019)
