title: GESTURE INQUIRY - UNESCO 1958

subject date: 2014-09-04

caption: GESTURES Vittorio Gassman (1 September 1922 – 29 June 2000) performs the interpretation of theatrical gestures or ''tragic attitudes'' (Morrocchesi), and some terms in the language of popular dialect gestures: full figure, upright body, right hand held one fist at shoulder height, the other near the chest, his face shows calm and authority, as he speaks with confidence. Possible meaning: I have the situation under control, I have solved the problem (compare with 35678, 35821=35813). The actor participated with other colleagues in the world survey on the value of the gesture in human culture promoted by UNESCO at the V International Congress of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences held in Philadelphia in 1956, and which for Italy was conducted by the anthropologist Romano Calisi (1931 - 1975) and the photographer Ando Gilardi. Subsequently, the director of the Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions of Rome prof. Tullio Tentori (1920 - 2003), also an anthropologist, understanding the value of research, joined the group as conservator and archivist. An exhibition was also set up with the images from the investigation. Photograph by Ando Gilardi (1921 - 2012) #andogilardi, Rome 1958.
