The halls of Palazzo Cucchiari will host <strong>30 pieces by the artist<\/strong>, among them some great paintings and an important unreleased series of galvanised slabs with tar inserts worked with naked flames. Usually Pignatelli works on anomalous supports but which are already pictorial (hemp tarps, planks and plates, assembled papers) and which the artist always reworks changing completely their original appearance and meaning; surfaces on which he overlaps the repertoire of his images, sort of personal catalogue in which there are mechanical means, ships, planes, metropolitan landscapes, but also reminiscences of the old through the remaining of statues, objects and abandoned cities. Starting point is the personal conception of history and time that Pignatelli expresses through iconographic short circuits, in which ancient and modern talk in a timeless perspective of great contemporaneity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-row\">\n<div class=\"one_third text-align-left\">\n<p>\u201c<em>We are honoured and happy to open the exhibition season with Luca Pignatelli \u2013 explains <strong>Franca Conti,<\/strong> the president of the Fondazione Giorgio Conti \u2013 for those who do not know him yet, it will be the opportunity to be amazed and astounded of the results of an artistic path which has been conversing with tradition for years, having memory and history face the sensations of present, to put the hands of the figurative expression of our time to their correct position<\/em>\u201d.

In the 80s, he consolidated his poetics visions by attending the lectures at the Architecture department, which were marked by the intuitions of Aldo Rossi who got it from very distant ages and spaces. Spurred by the idea of the sedimentary growth of History, painting, for Pignatelli, has a particular relationship with time: the combined presence of elements and shapes which are ascribable to different ages is not only dreamt but real and it lives within his work. He is driven to visit warehouses, storage areas, army depots and large engineering site. He is charmed by the mysteries hidden behind the anonymous architecture of port cities, with their yards and goods handling, but also by the architecture of the Parthenon, Vignola, Leon Battista Alberti, Loos and Mies van der Rohe, and that he has come across during his journeys through European cities. He is a painter able to challenge great dimensions and he usually works on anomalous supports but which are already pictorial ones, hemp tarps, planks and plates, assembled papers, overlapping the repertoire of his images, sort of personal catalogue in which there are mechanical means, ships, planes, metropolitan landscapes, but also reminiscences of the old through the remaining of statues and objects. Around mid 90s, the canvasses he has used are those of freight trains, running along the railways of Europe and which had been sewn again and patched up, because torn up by the continuous journeys but which suspend history and open lacerations for other trips towards art worlds. His poetics includes photography as an urgency to use the quote of other icons belonging to a golden past. The monumental sculptures of the Roman emperors, the chariots pulled by horses, out of their context and proposed again on canvasses worked with different techniques and solutions, become important parts of his iconography. The work of Luca Pignatelli has known wide appeal on an international level since the 90s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HIS MOST RECENT SOLO EXHIBITIONS:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2015 Uffizi, Florence 2014 Museo Capodimonte, Naples 2014 Galleria M77, Milan \u2013 St Moritz 2011 Istituto Nazionale della Grafica, Rome 2010 Galleria Poggiali e Forconi, Florence 2009 MAMAC \u2013 Mus\u00e8e d\u2019Art Moderne et d\u2019Art Contemporain, Nice 2008 Museo Archeologico Nazionale, Naples 2007 Teatro India, Rome 2006 White Box \u2013 Annex Plus, New York 2006 Ethan Cohen Fine Arts, New York 2005 Galerie Daniel Templon, Paris 2004 Galerie Mudima Due, Berlin 2004 Generous Miracles Gallery, New York \u2013 Leighton House Museum, London.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SOME COLLECTIVE EXHIBITIONS:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2015 Fondazione Cini, Isola di San Giorgio Maggiore, Venice 2015 Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin 2014 Galleria dell\u2019Accademia, Florence 2014 Palazzo Chiablese, Turin 2010 Museo MAXXI, Rome 2009 53\u00b0 Venice Biennale 2008 Mus\u00e9e Olympique, Shanghai, Lausanne 2007 Palazzo Reale, Milan 2006 MACRO, Rome 2003 50\u00b0 Esposizione Internazionale d\u2019arte, Venice 2003 Palais du Parlament Europ\u00e9en, Strasbourg 2002 Acad\u00e9mie Royale de Belgique, Brussels 2000 PAC, Padiglione d\u2019Arte Contemporanea, Milan 2000 Isetan Tokyo Museum, Tokyo 2000 International Forum, Tokyo 1997 Mus\u00e9e Nicolas Sursock, Beirut 1996 Mus\u00e8e de Pully, Lausanne, XII Quadriennale, Rome.<\/p>\n<p>Info: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lucapignatelli.it\" target=\"_blank\">www.lucapignatelli.it<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"one_third text-align-left last\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"element_from_right\" src=\"https:\/\/www.palazzocucchiari.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/luca_pignatelli.jpg\" alt=\"Luca Pignatelli\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div class=\"su-column su-column-size-1-1\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n<h2>\u201cLuca Pignatelli\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Curated by Massimo Bertozzi and Antonio Natali<\/p>\n<p>from 22 April to 18 June<\/p>\n<p>Carrara, Palazzo Cucchiari- Fondazione Giorgio Conti<\/p>\n<p>Via Cucchiari 1<\/p>\n<p>Orari: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday between 3 PM and 7 PM, Friday and Saturday between 3 PM and 10 PM;<br \/>\nInfo: 0585 72355<br \/>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fondazione Giorgio Conti inaugurates the new exhibition season with an exhibition of Luca Pigantelli\u2019s work curated by Massimo Bertozzi [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":845,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1767","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 -
