A route in stages.

“A ROUTE IN STAGES”

More than a title, it indicates the purpose of analytically reviewing what, as a whole, characterizes the work of the painter Ulrico Montefiore, an artist to be counted among those unfavorable to the obsessive repetitiveness of his own repertoire.
As far as allowed by the documents still available, it was chosen to set up a sequence of single programs relating to the production of the Master from the Marche region: to attempt, through a dossier of documentary presentations, the reliable reconstruction of his artistic personality.
Not an easy task. Intellectual curiosities, the facets of his interests, the continuous need to experiment, are such explicit attributes of this painter that already in the 1970s London critics did not hesitate to use the expression: Renaissance man to define it fully ¹.
The chapters aligned in this section will sometimes be accompanied by quotes and comments expressed on the artist over the decades.
