Raw materials : air
After the success, the exhibition Raw materials. Contemporary Italian artists between earth and light, curated by Giorgio Bonomi, Francesco Tedeschi and Matteo Galbiati, recently held in Senigallia at the Rocca Roveresca, FerrarinArte, who organized the event, will present a solo show by Franco Mazzucchelli at its headquarters in Legnago. The Senigallia exhibition collected around seventy works by Carlo Bernardini, Renata Boero, Giovanni Campus, Riccardo De Marchi, Emanuela Fiorelli, Franco Mazzucchelli, Nunzio, Paola Pezzi, Pino Pinelli, Paolo Radi, Arcangelo Sassolino, Paolo Scirpa, Giuseppe Spagnulo , Giuseppe Uncini and Grazia Varisco: artists belonging to different generations, but all with very high level curricula, united by the work conducted with and on the subject. The exhibition itinerary included sculptures and installations in terracotta, cement, iron, wood, lead, rubber and light. FerrarinArte will produce a series of personal exhibitions of the artists mentioned with works characterized by the prevailing material in their works.
It starts with Franco Mazzucchelli, an artist who has chosen air as his founding material. The artist was formed in the conceptual atmosphere of the Sixties when materials, dimensions, places of use of art became the object of research and experimentation, thus extending the formal revolution of the first avant-gardes to more extensive aesthetic and social environments.
