WORKS’ ARCHIVING
The Mauro Staccioli Archive Association was established by the artist in 2012 with the intention of protecting and increasing the standing of his work.
To this end, the Archive is the only entity authorized by the artist to lend its support to those wishing to organize either public or private, one-man or group exhibitions, perform research or publish material.
The Archive is the only entity entitled to deal with archiving the works and historical material: the artist’s written documents, letters, catalogues and books, press reviews, photographic material and videos.
For archiving and/or autenticating a work, it is necessary to send an e-mail to info@maurostaccioli.org, attaching good-quality digital photographs depicting the front, back, signature details, wording or labels on the work, together with all the relative information in your possession. This should include origin, if it is published in books or catalogues and participation in exhibitions and, if present, a copy of the front and back of the authentication issued by the artist.
The Archive will respond with a request to send the following documentation to the operating base of the Associazione Archivio Mauro Staccioli, via di Mezzo, 42/b – 50121 Firenze, by registered post with advice of delivery:
