These are the elements conceived by the artistic imagination of two distinct artists from different backgrounds in education\, origin\, research and artistic expression. A sculptor and a painter are merged in the exhibition “Materia Abscondit.” \nElias Naman\, a sculptor of Syrian origin who works only with his bare hands and a chisel\, transforming blocks of Carrara marble into the noblest stone whose history echoes through the centuries. Alternatively\, Michela Crisostomi is a skilled painter of Abruzzese origin\, who paints her canvases as if they were ancient walls\, covering them with thick layers of mortar\, a material that was used for the creation of frescoes\, and applying metal residues and inscriptions. \nThe primordial inspiration that unites these two artists is revealed in the constant dialogue between past and present\, in a relationship between tradition and modernity that leads the viewer to transcendent imagery. Both artists have assimilated the values of masters of the past and\, through the ideal of beauty inherited from classical antiquity\, create a dialogue with the contemporary world made of zooms and rapid framing. \nAlthough made with different methods\, the work of the two artists is intertwined and conditioned by the material they work with: marble blocks and mortar on canvas. These elements inspire the artists to continuously develop ideas that are only tangible with the execution of the work.\n Starting from a datum that is legible to everyone\, but which not everyone sees\, they lead us to a level beyond the ordinary. \nFaced with a “mute” matter\, their sensibility is able to lead them back to a memory or a feeling to which they give form in a bust\, a back\, a breast. \nNaman makes no drawing or model but indulges in his unusual affinity with the cold material to reveal what it conceals. Crisostomi acts on the canvases to transform them into walls from which trapped figures emerge.\nThe works are conceived as if they were found: “Materia Abscondit” is\, in fact\, the exhibition dedicated to rediscovery. \nFrom stone and mortar\, universal figures emerge; figures lightened by layers\, freed from the veil of illusions; figures that become emblems of introspection and self-awareness; figures once again able to see clearly their own only true essence. \nThe works on display speak to us of the need to tear away “the veil\,” to find oneself and reveal oneself.\n\n\n\n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n  URL:https://www.rossettiartecontemporanea.it/en/mostre-e-eventi/materia-abscondit-by-elias-naman-and-michela-crisostomi/ LOCATION:Genova CATEGORIES:Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.rossettiartecontemporanea.it/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/mostra-Materia-Abscondit-di-Michela-Crisostomi-e-Elias-Naman-Studio-Rossetti-Arte-Contemporanea.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Alessandra Redaelli":MAILTO:info@rossettiartecontemporanea.it END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20230413T200000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20230413T213000 DTSTAMP:20260503T163315 CREATED:20240115T140217Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240115T140217Z UID:46349-1681416000-1681421400@www.rossettiartecontemporanea.it SUMMARY:“Materia Abscondit\, Mulier Revelat” – Gala Eluard Dali\, the muse of surrealism DESCRIPTION:On the occasion of the exhibition “Materia abscondit\,” a journey into the feminine revealed through the work of two interesting contemporary artists\, the cultural blog The Meltin Pop – in collaboration with the Studio Rossetti Art Gallery and L’Amico Ritrovato bookstore in Genoa – presents the event “MATERIA ABSCONDIT\, MULIER REVELAT” to celebrate the one who was the true muse of surrealism\, Gala Éluard Dali.\n\nHelena Devulina Diakonoff\, known as Gala Éluard Dali\, was a model\, artist\, art dealer\, wife of the poet Éluard\, lover of Max Ernst\, and later Dali’s wife and muse. Gala is the ‘female’ representation of the art world of the first half of the 20th century.  In her brilliance and ability to reveal the talents of the men to whom she dedicated herself\, Gala Éluard Dali was recounted by the pen of journalist and writer Anna Di Cagno\, who chronicled her life in the fictionalized biography “Gala Éluard Dali. Per interposti uomini” published by Morellini Editore.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Thursday\, April 13\, 2023 at 6 p.m. Arianna Destito Maffeo and Antonella Grandicelli will meet Anna Di Cagno at the Studio Rossetti Art Gallery at 33r Via Chiabrera in Genoa.\n\nFree admission while places last (no reservations required).\n  \nApril 1975\, Pùbol\, Gerona. Gala Éluard Dali retires for a week in solitude to the castle her second husband\, Salvador Dali\, gave her. One night a girl knocks on her door. Thus opens a causal encounter that takes place inside what Dali considered his greatest masterpiece. In each room is a glimpse into the incredible and mythical life of Surrealism’s most celebrated Muse; a woman who marked an era\, and inspired inspired the cultural movement’s most famous poet and artist.\n\n\n\n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n  URL:https://www.rossettiartecontemporanea.it/en/mostre-e-eventi/materia-abscondit-mulier-revelat-gala-eluard-dali-the-muse-of-surrealism/ LOCATION:Genova CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.rossettiartecontemporanea.it/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/blog-Materia-Abscondit-Mulier-Revelat-–-Gala-Eluard-Dali-la-musa-del-surrealismo-Galleria-Studio-Rossetti.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="TheMeltinpop":MAILTO:redazionethemeltinpop@gmail.com END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
