Description
An account of the resource
127 items. The collection consists of a selection of works created by Alfonsino ‘Angiolino’ Filiputti (1924-1999). A promising painter from childhood, Angiolino was initially fascinated by marine subjects but his parents’ financial hardships forced an end to his formal education after completing primary school. Thereafter, he took up painting as an absorbing pastime. Angiolino depicted some of the most dramatic and controversial aspects of the Second World War as seen from the perspective of San Giorgio di Nogaro, a small town in the Friuli region of Italy. Bombings, events reported by newspapers, broadcast by the radio or spread by eyewitnesses, became the subject of colourful paintings, in which news details were embellished by his own rich imaginings. Each work was accompanied by long pasted-on captions, so as to create fascinating works in which text and image were inseparable. After the war, however, interest in his work declined and Angiolino grew increasingly disenchanted as he lamented the lack of recognition accorded his art, of which he was proud.
The work of Angiolino Filiputti was rediscovered thanks to the efforts of Pierluigi Visintin (San Giorgio di Nogaro 1946 – Udine 2008), a figurehead of the Friulan cultural movement, author, journalist, screenwriter and translator of Greek and Latin classical works into the Friulan language. 183 temperas were eventually displayed in 2005 under the title "La guerra di Angiolino" (“Angiolino’s war”.) The exhibition toured many cities and towns, jointly curated by the late Pierluigi Visintin, the art critic Giancarlo Pauletto and Flavio Fabbroni, member of the Istituto Friulano per la Storia del Movimento di Liberazione (Institute for the history of the resistance movement in the Friuli region).
The IBCC Digital Archive would like to express its gratitude to Anna and Stefano Filiputti, the sons of Angiolino Filipputi, for granting permission to reproduce his works. The BCC Digital Archive is also grateful to Alessandra Bertolissi, wife of Pierluigi Visintin, Alessandra Kerservan, head of the publishing house Kappa Vu and Pietro Del Frate, mayor of San Giorgio di Nogaro.

Title
A name given to the resource
Partisan ‘Napoli’ being tortured
Description
An account of the resource
A man is tied to a wall with blood dripping from head wounds. Two soldiers in green and black uniforms are threatening him with weapons. One is shouting and pointing to a bludgeon, whilst the other soldier is kneeling down pointing a rifle at the man.
Inscriptions read “208”; signed by the author; caption reads “GENNAIO 1945. I MARTIRI DI PALMANOVA…legato grondante sangue, ma con l’occhio scintillante l’eroe fissa i suoi carnefici con disprezzo “come ti chiami” gli grida il carnefice “Napoli” risponde l’eroe, “sei partigiano” “sì” freddo e fiero esce dalla sua bocca, “quale attività svolgi”. A questa domanda il piccolo Napoli raccoglie in un supremo sforzo, tutte le sue esauste forze, ed ergendo la sua povera e macciulenta [sic] carne, a monito solenne contro i traditori del popolo, risponde: “sono gappista”, chi sono i tuoi compagni urla il fascista, “sono napoletano e non li conosco”. Quattro colpi di mazza lo abbattono, ma ha ancora la forza di balbettare “porco”. Immediatamente il piccolo martire, viene passato alle torture piu raffinate e crudeli “Napoli” si contorce, spasima, invoca la madre lontana ma non parla. Una scarica rabiosa lo abate, l’aureola del martirio cinge la sua fronte; e papa Garibaldi lo accoglie nel cielo degli eroi”.
Caption translates as: “January 1945 – The Palmanova Martyrs… constrained and dripping blood, the hero was staring at his torturers with contempt, maintaining his bright gaze. “What’s your name” yelled the torturer. “Napoli” answered the hero. “Are you a partisan?”. “I am”, said he, cold and proud. “What is your task?”. To answer this question, the little Napoli gathered his strengths with extreme difficulty, he was exhausted. He got up – his body was miserable and emaciated – and, as a reprimand against the traitors of the people, answered: “I’ with the Patriotic Action Groups”. “Who are your comrades?” yelled the Fascist. “I am Neapolitan, I don’t know who they are”. He was knocked over by a bludgeon, but he still found the energy to reply “pig”. The little martyr was immediately tortured using more refined and cruel methods. “Napoli” started writhing. He had spasms and ached. He invoked his long-gone mother, but he doesn’t give away any information. A furious rush of blows knocked him over. The halo of the martyrs on his head, Father Garibaldi welcomes him in the heaven of the heroes.”
