In the panorama of Italian culture and publishing, Electra is a pivotal center of art: the center of its “history” (in the broadest sense), which intersects with the great events of the centuries, and the center of its “stories”, that is, those precise narratives capable of revealing the ideas behind movements, the concepts behind the phenomena, and the men and women behind the geniuses. Painting, photography, architecture, design, sculpture, performing arts, thresholds of experimentation new and old. From the classical world (and even earlier) toIts contemporary extreme: a cultural story always in tune with the times, innovative and multi-faceted, reviving the different points of view and approaches that shape the lively debate on the visual arts in all its forms. Eighty years of books that go far beyond the production catalogs of some of the most famous and well-attended exhibitions since 1945.
In the field of art history alone, Elekta presents numerous series that match the bold new directions that the publishing house has adopted in recent years.
