Del Conca’s involvement in art
Thursday, 19 January 2012
In Italy there has never been an exhibition providing an overview examining the whole of 20th-century American painting. All that we have seen have been sporadic solo or single-theme shows. The San Marino exhibition obviously does not set out to illustrate the whole development of American painting, simply because the number of featured works (20) would not be sufficient for the task. The show is, however, the first time in Italy that the great names of 20th-century American painting have been brought together in an attempt to tell the story of the whole century. There will be a focus on all the key moments in the development of American art The first section ranges from the very different realisms of Edward Hopper and Thomas Hart Benton up to the strikingly original output of Giorgia O’Keeffe. The exhibition thus makes an extraordinary start with Hopper’s stunning, adamantine realism, the so-called regionalist vision of Benton and the essentialness of a concise blend of description and metaphysics in O’Keeffe’s art.
This initial section is followed by the unforgettable season of great American abstract art. Both more gestural action painting and the apparently freer application of paint to give a sense of construction and form. All the most celebrated names are featured, beginning with Jackson Pollock and two works, the first dated 1949 and the second dated 1952. The section continues with Franz Kline and Willem de Kooning, again with large paintings from the 1950s, when they turned out their finest works.
Your 2011 Christmas gift makes a new dream come true

This year, the Del Conca Group, with your help, will build two group homes in one of Africa’s poorest nations, Malawi, where abandoned children will be welcomed while their birth family works through their time of difficulty.
In the foster families, the children will once again feel like “sons and daughters”, their wounds will be tended and a flame of hope will be rekindled in their lives. When these children have grown, if the situation allows it, they will
return to their natural families. With an overall size of 240 m2, the homes will be built in 2012 in the town of Matola in the Balaka District in Malawi.
The land is owned by the Association San Marino for the Children, which is also supervising the project.
The Del Conca Group has designated
the funds set aside for Christmas gifts to realize all of this.
With our best wishes for a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,
we give you our heartfelt thanks for sharing in this new and important project.

In just a few months, the small medical dispensary has been transformed into a real hospital. The transfer of health services into the new facilities began already in the summer, and is being gradually completed as the various pavilions are being finished. The number of people benefiting from the health services is on the rise, and a further increase is expected when the hospital is fully operational.The facilities comprise several pavilions: registration, treatment rooms, blood collection stations, areas for diagnosis and treatment of AIDS patients, obstetrics and pediatrics, a dental center, and one of the most important wards, the inpatient ward, built entirely through the contributions of all of Del Conca’s stakeholders. In this ward, necessary basic healthcare is provided to the poorest of the sick with diagnosis, treatment and care. Religious and lay personnel work in the facilities, and local personnel will be aided by medical personnel from Italy and elsewhere in order to complete their training through a direct and on-the-field exchange.
