Falscher Marmor und glühende Sterne

Carrara with Gastini, Spagnulo, Zorio

The poetic group exhibition False Marble and Glowing Stars presents 39 works by four artists from northern Italy who stand for the fusion of emotion and rationality. In paintings, works on paper, sculptures and expansive installations, they negotiate central and, as it were, timeless themes such as nature, energy, myth and mimesis. All four artists move between discourse and intuition, contemplation and concept, feeling and understanding in their own individual approaches.
The exhibition combines collection works from the 1970s by the three renowned artists Marco Gastini, Giuseppe Spagnulo and Gilberto Zorio, who are sometimes classified as Arte Povera, with a comprehensive cross-sectional presentation by the up-and-coming artist Linda Carrara.
