Amedeo Bocchi (Parma, 1883 – Rome, 1976) At the age of 12, Amedeo Bocchi is enrolled at the Regio Istituto di Belle Arti in Parma. After graduating in 1901 with the highest grades, he attends the School of Nude Art in Rome where he will spend the rest of his life. In 1910 Bocchi is accepted, for the first time, with two paintings, to the Venice Biennial where he is able to admire the great solo exhibition by Gustav Klimt. In 1911, at the grand Exposition in Rome for the fiftieth anniversary of the Italian Unification, Bocchi produces, in collaboration with Barilli, de Strobel and Brozzi, a reconstruction of the Golden Room in the Castle of Torrechiara. In 1913, although he never officially subscribed to the manifesto of the Roman Secession, Bocchi was greatly impressed by the first exhibition organized by the group. Between 1913 and 1915 he uses his knowledge in the field of frescoes for the important job given to him by the Cassa di Risparmio di Parma bank for the decoration of the Council Meeting Hall. Bocchi processes the influence from Liberty and Klimt in a very original manner; his work, completed in 1916, obtains unanimous consensus of the critics. In 1915 he obtained the privilege of living in one of the studio-houses in Rome, made available to artists by Alfred Strohl, Villa Strohl-Fern. Bocchi would spend the rest of his life there, producing a series of masterpieces that would allow him the participation in the Biennial, the nomination as Academic of St. Luke, and a gold medal for his painting “Bianca in abito da sera” at the 1926 exhibition in Monza. Bocchi’s contribution to the artistic research of the Nineteen hundreds is expressed through the processing of a unique and exceptional journey patiently built around the pictorial value of light and the strength of family affection.
