NON ANCORA BUIO | DOMENICO GRENCI

Nuova Galleria Morone presents Non ancora buio (Come labili nebbie vespertine quando caduto è il sole), Domenico Grenci's second solo exhibition curated by Alberto Mattia Martini. The new cycle of Domenico Grenci's works features natural elements, such as flowers and plants, which trigger a profound dialogue with his more consolidated research on the face. A path born about two years ago, in a socially complex period, projecting Grenci towards the urgency of an intimate dialogue, which probes the sense of incompleteness of the existential condition in relation to the origin of all things: nature in relation to the human. The reflection on the definite and therefore the indefinite, which envelops everything like the labile evening mists when the sun has fallen, spreads...

FLUORITURA | ENRICO MINGUZZI

Nuova Galleria Morone presents Fluoritura, Enrico Minguzzi's first solo show in the spaces of the gallery. The exhibition depicts a journey through the artist's memory and imagination. The event presents his new series representing a wide range of subjects, from landscapes to still lives which are all part of an imaginary ecosystem. The works will be on display at the Nuova Galleria Morone from October 28th to December 18th, 2021. Fluoritura is about a promenade through the woods that the artist has experienced and stored in the archives of his memory. However, these are edited, altered and reworked. Perceptions are often deceptive, therefore reality and fiction can easily be confused in an image. The artist enhances this eternal dichotomy through his...

6 Pittori alla Morone. Omaggio a Enzo Spadon

Nuova Galleria Morone presents 6 Pittori alla Morone, an exhibition in homage to Galleria Morone and its recently deceased founder, Enzo Spadon. Through the works of Spadon's 'stable' of artists - Enrico Della Torre, Riccardo Guarneri, Gianni Madella, Claudio Olivieri, Mario Raciti, Valentino Vago - the exhibition retraces the fundamental stages in the history of a gallery which, like Galleria Morone, left its mark on Milan in the second half of the 20th century. The works will be exhibited at Nuova Galleria Morone from 13 March 2021. 6 pittori alla Morone (6 painters at Morone Gallery) recalls and encompasses many of the exhibitions that Enzo Spadon held on the group of young artists who frequented his gallery. Nuova Galleria Morone proposes...

La forma del colore | Nataly Maier

Nataly Maier's path unfolds in different moments of research always centred around a fundamental investigation, which innervates every work of the author with meaning. This coherent path is evoked by the works presented in this exhibition, built on the dialectic harmony between pieces from different moments. It is visually evident how Maier's reflection has taken place over time as an answer to a profound questioning of the nature and characteristics of artistic representation and consequently also of the process underlying looking. A reflection that has never stopped at the mere theoretical presupposition of artistic practice, but has been embodied in every phase of its practice, always set on the register of passionate investigation and cunning and accurate doing. The first stage...

Gesti di rivolta. Arte, fotografia e femminismo a Milano 1975/1980

Although feminist groups have been active in Milan (as in the rest of Italy) since the early 1960s, it is only since the middle of the decade that many authors have approached, through their practice, themes related to feminism and the condition of women in contemporary society. The approaches, languages and ways in which they deal with the various issues related to such a socially significant field are different, but all referable to a single subject: women. Even in Milan, many artists, proceeding along a personal trajectory, not necessarily linked to militancy, or acting within feminist or political groups, are committed to reflecting on women's identity and the role of women in modern society. This rich cultural fabric, the research...

Bless this house | Silvia Celeste Calcagno

Intense and subtle, feminine and powerful, Silva Celeste Calcagno chronicles our time exposing the human condition subjective to the dichotomies of day-to-day life and the universal themes imbedded within: life, pain, death and rebirth. The artist’s personal show unites works of different media, technical and conceptual approaches. Slowly evolving video and noisy, repetitive moving film scenes, metaphors of change, destruction and rebirth, mix with large-scale installations of arranged groups of one-off photographic images of the artist’s body parts or face, printed and burned into slabs of fired clay. ‘Eye Verbal Motor, hitherto unseen, shows Calcagno’s disfigured face. The penetrating mask-like representations are strangely still and the more intense for that. Transfiguration and estrangement are key themes in Calcagno’s work and...
