Giuseppe Riccardo "Beppe" Devalle was an Italian painter and collagist, acknowledged as one of the most interesting and appreciated artists of the last few decades of Italian painting. He always refuted the prevailing trends of the day so as to create and distinguish his own individual style: this may explain why Devalle has been overlooked and placed as something of an outsider, he has been known as a master of photomontage and defined as a creator of the'New Epic Italian style'. Devalle was born in Turin on 8 April 1940. During the war his family first evacuated to Cherasco, the birthplace of his paternal grandparents, to Lanzo Torinese, from 1943-1945. On returning to Turin in 1945, he attended elementary and secondary school without much enthusiasm. In 1955 he was admitted to the Liceo Artistico dell’Accademia Albertina, after having studied all summer with the Casoni brothers, on the advice of Felice Casorati, whom he had met through common friends of his parents. During the years of his attendance at the Liceo, he came in contact with the avant-garde world of contemporary art, thanks to his acquaintance with sculptors, Sandro Cherchi and Franco Garelli.
He frequented the USIS Library in Turin, in 1958 he went to the PAC in Milan, to see the exhibition of American painting. In 1958 he was admitted to the annual Promotrice delle Belle Arti in Turin, he completed his diploma at the Liceo and for a few years, worked as a cost estimator in his father's firm, which specialised in metal structural work. At the same time, he enrolled in the Accademia Albertina; the first outcome of this decision was his coming into contact with the thinking and aesthetics of contemporary theatre. In 1961, in an exhibition with Gianluigi Mattia, he exhibited large-scale works at the Circolo degli Artisti. In the same year, Holden Caulfield—the protagonist of J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye—became his favorite and ideal character is a series of pastels, along with Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll during 1962–63. In 1963, Bompiani Almanac, the exhibition held at the gallery Il Punto of Remo Pastori and Gianenzo Sperone, above all, the friendship with Michelangelo Pistoletto, spurred him to make direct use of photographic images.
In particular, he used the pages of magazines like Look, Life, L'Espresso, Paris Match, in which enquiries and ads all co-existed. Thus he created his first photomontages. In 1963 he graduated from Accademia Albertina and was invited to various important exhibits, among which Alternative attuali. In 1964 his Alice in Wonderland sheets and his large scale acrylic-Pop painting are on a Solo Exhibition at the prestigious Galleria Galatea of Turin, under the curation of Luigi Carluccio. In the following years, Devalle took part in the first Mostra Mercato held in the halls of the Palazzo Strozzi in Florence, in 1965 another Solo Exhibition at the Galleria Milano, where he exhibited a new series of acrylic and coloured pencil works. In those years Devalle received various prizes, among which: the Città di Torino Giovani, the F. P. Michetti Prize, the Città di Spoleto Prize, the San Fedele Prize. In 1965 he was a guest of the XXXIII Venice Biennale by Nello Ponente. In the same year he started to paint the Room-Landscapes, placing extensions of the paintings—parallelepipeds and pyramids—next to canvases in order to modify the apparent placement of the painting, putting it in relation to the room containing it.
In 1967, he took part in the touring Salone Internazionale dei Giovani organised by the PAC, curated by Guido Ballo. He presented these large scale tridimensional acrylic painting in a series of important one-man exhibitions: at the Studio d'Arte Condotti in Rome; this period concluded with the exhibition of his last "room-works" at the XXXVI Venice Biennale in 1972. In the late 1960s Devalle put aside large-scale works and acrylic colours and began to work with photomontages, he used pictures taken from fashion magazines, instead of from news magazines as in his works of 1963–1969. Through rigorous use of geometry, Devalle explored the faces and figures he appropriated from magazines, to produce new structural frameworks, the results of which Devalle called "real surprises". Invited by Renato Barilli, Tommaso Trini and Maurizio Calvesi, he participated in Gennaio'70, the Biennale of young Bolognese artists. After an empirical beginning, which lasted from 1963 to 1970, Devalle began to utilize geometry in a much more systematic way, for executional precision and truth in design obsessed him.
Along with this work with photography there appeared tables that developed the creative process—real diaries of the sequence. Orthogonals and curves became autonomous subjects and in themselves created "effective surprises". In 1973 he held the chair of Theory of Perception at the Accademia Albertina in Turin, his works were shown by Daniela Palazzoli and Luigi Carluccio at the exhibition Combattimenti per una imagine at the Modern Art Gallery of Turin.
