Abstract
The author traces the activities of Costantino Nivola (Orani 1911-New York 1988) restrict them in the years 1973-1988 through personal memories and unpublished documents. The starting date refers to the Exhibition held by the artist in Cagliari and organized by Marisa Volpi in the Aula Magna of the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, that was the first meeting between Frongia and Nivola. The core of the exposed works gives an opportunity to deepen his production of clay, Beds and Panels, especially those related to the world of Sardinia. The critical view and, at the same time, the ironic socio-cultural situation of his island, is also highlighted in a drawing, published for the first time and executed on that occasion. The path to the “memory” is always supported by letters, testimonies, materials most often original.
