The new season of Nuova Galleria Morone opens with the personal exhibition of Eros Bonamini (1942-2012) whose indefatigable work has been able to explore, decade after decade, the different periods and tensions stimulated by the artistic culture of his time, maintaining the total independence of his gaze from too stringent labels and definitions. Bonamini has played that ‘atypical’ role of the master who, never conforming or repetitive, has always vitalised his research work with a committed experimental energy, the result of his peculiar artistic and human personality.

In the exhibition we witness the metamorphosis of the elements employed through cycles of works ranging from the delicate Cement Stesure, in which the sign emerges or sinks with delicate physicality, to the more pronounced Chronotopographies on paper and then – the central point of the exhibition – the powerful tangibility of the Vanitas Chronotopographies of the famous steels “written” with a blowtorch.
