The catalogue presents a selection of works by Italian artists from a private contemporary art collection, which pays tribute to the art of the second half of 20th-century society, and becomes an integrated part of the history and growth of the company that collected itover the years. It includes 250 artworks from the early years after World War II to the 2000s. It narrates an Italian path to pop art through the art of Valerio Adami, Franco Angeli, Enrico Baj, Mario Schifano, Emilio Tadini and others. Indeed, the book and the collection itself tell a common story: the desire to be activists and not spectators of those initiatives that create value for society.
