ROSSETTI arte contemporanea

Presentation of “The book” by Silvio Porzionato
2023-02-23 19:30 - 20:30 (Europe/Rome) | Genova
The first major, unpublished and comprehensive publishing work dedicated to the artist Silvio Porzionato.
A hardcover volume that is divided into 3 sections for no less than 264 full-color pages.
Stories, reflections, interviews and a catalog of works, all in dual language, Italian and English. “What a fantastic spectacle life is! What an intriguing web of stories and people. And what a precious privilege it would be to be able to relive it played out on the stage of a small theater, or projected on the big screen. What a wonderful journey, to be able to observe one’s existence from the outside, review it and enjoy it as if it were a play of incredible realism.” This is how Silvio Porzionato begins his monographic catalog published by iemme edizioni (Naples, 2022). An editorial project that Alberto Tondella, the volume’s editor, describes as follows: “If life is a journey, this volume is a stage, a stop to take two photos, have a sip of water and look back to observe how far one has come. Silvio’s, like so many artists’ lives, is an existence lived in a rush, with his foot pressed on the accelerator. It is frenzy, it is the need to finish one work in order to start another, it is wheezing about not having enough time to be able to accomplish all that the soul can imagine.
the book is characterized by three souls. The first is an account of Silvio’s artistic life, presented through images that speak of anxieties, joys, and goals achieved and lost. The second part is a chat among friends over a glass of wine. The third is an important collection of Silvio’s most significant works.”
The book presentation will take place on Thursday, Feb. 23, at 6:30 p.m. in the presence of artist Silvio Porzionato and author Alberto Tondella.
A me piace dipingere la carne,
mi piace dare luce agli occhi,
adoro tutte le sfumature di colori che ci sono sulla carne.

“Materia Abscondit” by Elias Naman and Michela Crisostomi
2023-03-23 19:00 - 2023-04-23 21:00 | Genova
Portions of bodies, fragments of faces, details of sinuous backs, intertwined hands, interrupted busts. 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.”
Elias 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.
The 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.
Although 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.
Starting from a datum that is legible to everyone, but which not everyone sees, they lead us to a level beyond the ordinary.
Faced 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.
Naman 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.
The works are conceived as if they were found: “Materia Abscondit” is, in fact, the exhibition dedicated to rediscovery.
From 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.
The works on display speak to us of the need to tear away “the veil,” to find oneself and reveal oneself.

“Materia Abscondit, Mulier Revelat” – Gala Eluard Dali, the muse of surrealism
2023-04-13 20:00 - 21:30 | Genova
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.

Helena 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.

On 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.

Free admission while places last (no reservations required).

April 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.

“ERASED” by Paolo Ceribelli
2023-05-25 20:00 - 2023-06-25 21:00 | Genova
On the occasion of the exhibition “Erased,” Paolo Ceribelli showcases the evolution of his personal investigation to which, for years now, he has dedicated himself with painstaking dedication. Since the very beginning of his artistic research, Ceribelli’s expression was originally focused on the iconography-symbol of the Plastic Soldier (2006) and later on the Anti-Tank Barricade (2016), both universally recognizable figures that can be traced back to war imagery.
In the current cycle, the artist proposes a key interpretation aimed at the distortion of the object itself: the goal is to overturn the observer’s perception to unhinge the conventional meaning attributed to a symbol, in order to develop a personal analysis over the complexity of human nature.
For this purpose, the icons of war are estranged and decontextualised. The use of colour changes the perception of the object itself and through the methodical and serial repetition of forms, either obsessively ordered or deliberately disordered, the customary idea that they represent is erased.
We are witnessing the birth of a holistic representation, where notions of peace and war coexist in a complex totality far more significant than what the individual forms represents alone.
The Anti-Tank Barricade, well known as “Cheval-de-Frise”, is a pivotal symbol, which has been reproduced over the years in different sizes, colour and materials. A classic emblem of the limit beyond which we are able to push ourselves, facing a considerable degree of difficulty. In Ceribelli’s work, however, the anti-tank barricades, in the artwork “War and Peace Structure”, are displayed in a collective tangle where they become a pile that seems to have been accumulated and abandoned. As inert, once perceived in the complexity of their whole, they lose their original function as limit and barrier. We no longer consider them as obstacles; on the contrary, the artist creates a counterpoint to our sensibility and the barricades become a symbol of surrender and of peace.
The artist brings together a serial repetition with the symbolism of the circle figure, also fundamental to his personal poetics. The circular figure is, by custom, the emblematic form of cyclical, infinite and perfect time. But the mathematical constant that gives dimension to this shape is pi, an irrational number with infinite decimal digits that never repeat themselves. A circle, seemingly so perfect and unchanging, is a great container that gathers infinite possibilities of development and interpretation, without a beginning or an end.
The circle is a symbolic figure of a subjective feeling that can represent two opposing actions, the centripetal and the centrifugal force, which are correspondingly images of protection and estrangement.
The work “Untitled” also offers a deeply personal point of view to the viewers. The method chosen by the artist, acrylic stamping on paper, is a diptych whose parts are mirrored and contrasting. On the other hand, the lightness of the paper must support the heavy references applied by the stamped subjects: the “Cheval-de-Frise”. This work refers to the principle of Chinese philosophy of Taoism, which highlights the essentiality of balance between opposing and complementary forces. Like the forces of war and peace that live within us, the artist invites us to embrace responsibility and consciousness.
Paolo Ceribelli does not base his artistic research on a militaristic notion, nor on his intent to impose an overarching position. The critical analysis of the self and one’s own inner wars is objective and constructive. In this exhibition, the artist takes a further step in his research and self-analysis, strips away his fears and he materialises his inner struggles. The need and desire to go beyond one’s limit is perceived in the stampings of the work “Cloud,” in which Ceribelli enacts the liberating gesture that approaches disorder and abstraction. He is finally free to break the rigid mechanisms of stubborn perfection that have always been part of his poetics.
The inclination to war and the desire for peace are forces that coexist in human beings and they condition our interpretation of the surrounding reality. In the exhibition “Erased”, we witness the erasure of customs to make room for our perceptions. This results in profound personal searches and in the awareness of our inner struggles, which are the starting point for self-improvement. As a matter of fact, it is the viewer who decides to consider what may seem like an unequivocal message as a declaration of war or peace.

OPERAE by Gianni Lucchesi
2023-10-05 20:00 - 2023-11-05 19:00 | Piazza De Ferrari, Piazza De Ferrari, Genova, (GE), 16121, Italia
Rossetti Arte Contemporanea presents Operae by Gianni Lucchesi.
The installation is 13 meters tall and consists of 12 concrete cubes, on top of which sits a life-sized sculpture of a seated man gazing towards the horizon.
The interpretation. Knowledge, wisdom, and construction draw strength from an interplay between past, present, and future.The man lives in the present, open to receiving ail the stimuli offered by the surrounding environment in harmony with nature. He contemplates the future ahead, supported by a column symbolizing the value and importance of one’s intellect in history, seeking the laws that govern the harmony of the universe.
The Fibonacci sequence. Observing the sculpture from the apex, that is, from the block on which the man is seated, the Fibonacci sequence marks the rotation of the cubes, which, stacked one on top of the other, support the man in a contemplative posture. They undergo a slight twist, a rotation of a few degrees, precisely realizing the golden sequence 1,1,2,3,5. Metaphorically, the construction is not anchored to the ground by gravity; on the contrary, it is supported by the intellect of man.
Giordano Bruno. Across the entire length of the column, the hermetic seals of Giordano Bruno are impressed in gold, with decreasing intensity from top to bottom.Through imaginative effort, they express the forms of nature through intuition, capable of uniting our true essence with the infinite universe.
A school of great artists, a team of great companies.
The sculpture “Operae“ by Gianni Lucchesi is a project developed in collaboration with Carlo Alberto Arzelà, Julia Caracciolo, Sandra Bozzarelli, and the Hangar studio.
The artist worked with the company Giannoni & Santoni to develop both the structural solutions of the work and the aesthetic finishes of the surfaces of the concrete cubes, thanks to the use of the company’s modern technologies combined with craftsmanship of high artistic value. The artist shaped and patinated the resin sculpture in collaboration with the company Poliart, a leader in 3D moderation of expanded polystyrene. Filotto Srl designed and produced the internal and external lighting of the work. Lo Studio i Ingegneria e Dintorni in Pisa designed the statics of the work.

“Houston, che sfortuna” by Gianni Lucchesi
2023-10-05 21:00 - 2023-11-05 20:00 | Genova
Critical text by Alessandra Redaelli

Gianni Lucchesi’s investigation has always revolved around our feeling and our not (wanting) to feel, looking in and out ourselves. Ever since he was moving in the realm of lyrical, emotional abstract. Then something happens in the artist’s life. One of those terrible, illuminating events that turns perspectives upside down. And suddenly his language becomes figurative.
Relationships with others and the environment are the landscape on which his figures move, small but defined in the detail of dress. And the dress is what one wears to go to a “serious” job, perhaps behind a desk, immersed inside a normality where adequacy touches the limits of alienation. Little characters who are man as it is humanity; who tell us about their own inner conflicts and the dismay of the outside.In this narrative of a humanity lost within itself, too busy observing the world blindfolded to realize where its manner is taking it, there is no judgment or moral lesson: rather a photograph of a distress, always conducted with an eye to beauty, within warm spaces, on vivid surfaces cut by light.
The golfer, alone, bends over the ball in the center of a space annihilated, destroyed, unequivocally traversed by something inemendable, pretending that there is a green meadow around him: a blindness that has the flavor of denial, even more glaring when one looks at how the deer herd moves, on the same burned surface.
True to an economy of narrative that goes hand in hand with chromatic minimalism, Lucchesi for long time has chosen a single animal, the deer precisely, to serve as a counterbalance to the human figure. Majestic, elusive, imbued with magical symbolism of rebirth, it embodies pure instinct for the artist. While man is lost in his illusion, the animal forms a pack around him and seeks a way of escape.
The hare in this new project comes to complete a very precise path: the unerring instinct is tinged with poetry and becomes creative imagination here. In a leap-just as happens in Lucio Corsi’s song, a verse of which serves as the exhibition’s title-she has arrived on the moon.
A revolutionary, titanic gesture: the animal has realized that the planet is imploding and so it goes away, elsewhere. It does not think about how to get there, what it leaves behind, how it will feed itself, or even how it will breathe. Its instincts tell to go, and it goes.

A dialogue with artist Gianni Lucchesi
2023-10-31 18:00 - 19:30 | Genova
A very special meeting will take place on Tuesday, October 31 at 6 p.m. Artist Gianni Lucchesi and curator Alessandra Redaelli will be present at the gallery.
On this occasion, we will have the opportunity to listen to arguments and comparisons regarding all the issues addressed by the artist, but above all to ask the questions that have intrigued us about his work and his artistic thought.
“With the irony and elegant essentiality that has always distinguished his stylistic signature, Lucchesi contrasts the behavior of man and that of the animal, their opposite reactions and their different relationship to their fellow creatures. The goal is to stimulate critical reflection on the part of the observer regarding the human-environment relationship and the perception of himself with and in the surrounding space. Lucchesi does not give lectures or answers. He points. At most he asks a few questions. But the questions are the kind that burn.”
We look forward to seeing you in the gallery!

Presenze Invisibili. Encounter between Art and Architecture - Exhibition by Andrea Savazzi and Gianni Lucchesi
2024-03-07 18:00 - 2024-04-07 18:00 | De Jorio Design Swiss, Via Silvio Calloni 1/a, Lugano, 6900, Svizzera
With different interpretations and techniques, artists Andrea Savazzi and Gianni Lucchesi investigate the attitude of man and his “being” in the world.
In Savazzi’s works, the human figure never appears but is always the protagonist. The artist transposes on canvas imposing structures that have been built, lived and, finally, abandoned. Spaces where nature reclaims what belongs to it, silent places that talk about the cycle of life, witnesses to the passage of women, men and thousands of stories.
On the contrary, in Gianni Lucchesi’s works, the human figure appears as a starting point to trigger a reflection between man and his inner complexities.
On his canvases, herds of deer contrast with disorderly crowds of people, showing us a different relationship between their fellow humans and the environment around us. His minimal and rigorous sculptures, on the other hand, report small human figures who, seated or poised, observe the underlying raw materials representing their interiority and which, therefore, are deliberately larger in size and disproportionate to them.
The parallel investigation of the two artists addresses equal themes with very different eyes, inviting us to believe in our perceptions so as not to remain blind to what we do not see, to notice the silent presences that surround us, or possess us, in our daily lives.

L'Io e L'Es by Evita Andújar
2024-04-05 18:00 - 2024-05-05 18:00 | Genova
On Friday, April 5, 2024, the exhibition spaces of Rossetti Gallery will host the opening of “L’Io e L’Es,” the new exhibition of Andalusian artist Evita Andújar. Three years after the great success of the last exhibition at Galleria Rossetti, the artist is back to Genoa, presenting unreleased paintings, created especially for the third exhibition that the gallery dedicates to the artist.

The exhibition will open to the public on Friday, April 05, from 6 p.m. It will be possible to visit the exhibition until May 05, 2024, during gallery opening hours.

The focus of Andújar’s research revolves around a personal representation of the instances theorized by the world’s most influential psychoanalyst, Sigmund Freud: the artist skillfully transposes and reconciles on canvas the relationship between the “Ego”, the conscious component of our personality, the one with which we present ourselves to the world, and the “Id”, our deepest part, the set of hidden drives and instincts.

CRITICAL TEXT OF THE EXHIBITION L’IO e L’ES OF EVITA ANDUJAR

“At this crucial moment in history for the history of images, at the dawn of an era where some would like to leave to machines and artificial intelligence the task to build the iconographic baggage of our future, painting, paradoxically, would perhaps seem to be the medium best suited to react to such a situation and to provide unprecedented response and reflection capacity in the face of the iconic cocoon that envelops our lives immersed in digital networks.

Evita Andújar rightfully belongs to the recent generation of painters who deal with an innovative and coherent way with the visual and intellectual stimuli coming from the web and, in particular, from social networks, working with coherence and rigor on some central issues that mark the landscape of our present and what will be our future.

It is very interesting, moreover, to note that in this new context of the visual arts there are many female painters working through visions that differ in their complexity and incisive force.

Moreover, Andújar has the advantage of a rigorous work structured on a solid stylistic ability derived from her long experience in the field of restoration (often on very important construction sites) and from her studies made in Spain with Antonio López García, one of the greatest living painters, of whom she does not seem to be an epigone but a continuation of reflections on the active dialogue between painting and photography.

Not surprisingly, the artist makes use of a pictorial drafting that manages to combine exactness with rapidity, fluidity with the clarity of the image, effectively concentrating the architecture and chromatic pulsation of her paintings, always declined with a synthetic ability to capture the load-bearing elements of the coloristic drafting that builds the form in a sharp and vibrant way.

Andújar thus uses her talent for her ready-made research on the universe of images that accumulate on the web, carefully choosing photographs, taken especially from Instagram, of unknown girls that she then manipulates and transforms with brushes and color on canvas.

The painter cleverly challenges the banality of certain images and transforms them into an insight that has the power reserved for works of art and their special ability to penetrate and interpret the multifaceted realities of the world we share.

In fact, these paintings are marked by an apparent chromatic happiness, linked to their sources of origin, which Andújar manages to coagulate in her translucent pictorial textures that, however, leave a clear sense of unease, a jarring element that undermines the lightness and narcissism of the (self)representations that follow one another on Instagram.

Therefore, the artist deliberately steals the selfies of the girls on her canvases, but this operation, however, is not one of simple and trivial plundering, and her painting achieves the purpose of giving a contemporary dimension to the age-old theme of the double, of a possible alter ego that overlaps with our personality.

In fact, the young women in these works are caught in their private and doubled dimension, as if in a mirroring or, rather, a reverberation of their face, which echoes in the works as a kind of (intended) disturbance of that perfection that the original photos would have wanted to convey.

The meaning of this research thus seems to provide shape and meaning to the splitting of our lives, suspended between reality and virtuality, in a fusion where the (supposed?) truth of “real life” often seems to get lost in the space of the net and where the many possible realities increase out of all proportion in an infinite labyrinth of representations.

The Self and the Shadow then stand side by side in the theater of stolen and manipulated self-portraits, personalities blur and multiply prompting us to wonder about the identities and otherness of these pictures, whether the people observing us really exist or are just holograms projected in social networks.

Andújar’s work achieves a further and deeper result, however, that of revealing the enigmas behind stolen selfies, by giving a dignity and visual presence to images otherwise destined to dissipate in a few minutes, slowing down the time of the pixels that form those photos by enclosing them in the fluid body of painting, transforming the ephemeral into the lasting and discovering the secret and private poetry of minimal everyday existences.”

Enigma Tiziano by Chiara Montani
2024-04-11 18:00 - 19:30 | Genova
“Enigma Tiziano” by Chiara Montani – Garzanti Editore, a historical novel set during World War II that, through the compelling story of Aida, eviscerates with deep passion and mastery the genius of the great master Tiziano Vecellio, known simply as Titian.
“Aida is a restorer, and her mission becomes to unearth the painting she senses is hidden beneath the anonymous surface. What she discovers is beyond expectation: never would she have imagined that she was standing before an authentic Tiziano.”
On Thursday, April 11, writer Chiara Montani will be present at the gallery to talk in person about her book, which addresses numerous issues, including the danger to which not only people but also works of art have been subjected. It was possible to organize this event thanks to Enrica Perilio, curator of museum services, who will present and conduct the meeting. Special guest of the evening will be art critic and historian Giovanna Rotondi Terminiello, whose presence will be crucial as she witnessed the brutality of that historical period and, as an art lover, will tell us in person her story, akin to that of the novel’s protagonist.
We look forward to seeing you on Thursday, April 11 at 6 p.m. to talk about the book “Enigma Tiziano” by Chiara Montani and the testimonies of critic and historian Giovanna Rotondi Terminiello.

Il rosso è vendicativo by Alessandra Gasparini
2024-10-03 18:00 - 2024-11-03 18:00 | Genova
On the occasion of the opening of the new exhibition season, in the context of the event START – the white night of modern and contemporary art, the Rossetti Gallery proposes the solo exhibition “Il rosso è vendicativo” (“Red is vindictive”) by Alessandra Gasparini, a multifaceted artist whose talent becomes an emblem of freedom of expression and openness to knowledge and instinct.
Alessandra Gasparini possesses a world, inside, so imposing and so packed with suggestions and images that when it gushes onto the canvas it stretches there in complex, rich narratives, impossible to grasp at first glance. Paintings of slow and meticulous construction, impeccable in the concatenation of logical connections and, nevertheless, imbued with an instinctuality that does not go unnoticed, with a wild, untamable creativity, which is then the ingredient of enchantment.
Protagonists of Gasparini’s painting are children. Never chosen at random, beautiful with a beauty that is by no means prissy but rather harsh, rough; children who have not yet lost the ability to believe in themselves typical of childhood, the sense of omnipotence that nails the adult to the relativity of his own convictions. Not yet human, as the artist defines them, certainly not yet tamed by the mask of adulthood.
One of the artist’s unique features is his delight in continuing the narrative by adding a piece of the story behind the framed canvas. It is the space of freedom, the mockery of the limitations of the boundaries of the canvas. An installation will be placed in the atrium of Palazzo Saluzzo with the painting “I Had a Chair,” on the back of which a naked little girl appears huddled in a seat, pondering how to use the large jar of red paint she holds next to her. Nearby is the inscription, “When red calls, it is best to humor it. Red is vindictive.”

The meetings and the documentary aim to bring to light the relationship of the famous international writer with Liguria, which has always been evoked in his writing. This talk proposes to highlight the strong bond between the author and the region, whose beauty and art shaped his works. “Call Me by Your Name,” his best-known novel, from which the 2018 Oscar-winning film of the same name was made, is in fact set in the Ligurian Riviera, more precisely in Bordighera.
The aim is to make people discover an unseen side of this Region, made up of villages and roads that are still little known; giving rise to a new form of tourism that goes beyond the summer season. During the two events it is intended to focus on art and literature as fundamental themes in an increasingly digitized world in which the dimension of “real life” is lost in the facets of the digital one.

Dialogue between artist Alessandra Gasparini and curator Alessandra Redaelli
2024-10-18 | Rossetti arte contemporanea, Via Chiabrera 33r, Genova, 16123, Italia
DIALOGUE BETWEEN ARTIST AND CURATOR
Curator Alessandra Redaelli meets artist Alessandra Gasparini.
On Friday, October 18, 2024, at 6 p.m., Alessandra Redaelli will be in Genoa to open a dialogue with artist Alessandra Gasparini. The meeting is open to all interested and will be an opportunity to learn more about the artist and her world, surrounded by her works. The event will be held at our gallery in Via Chiabrera 33r, in the historic center of Genoa.
During this meeting it will also be possible to visit the exhibition “Red is Vindictive” by Alessandra Gasparini, curated by Alessndra Redaelli.
Below is an excerpt from the critical text of the exhibition, written by Alessandra Redaelli:
Alessandra Gasparini possesses a world, inside, so imposing and so packed with suggestions and images that when it gushes onto the canvas it stretches there in complex narratives, impossible to grasp at first glance. Paintings of slow construction, impeccable in the concatenation of logical connections and yet imbued with an instinctuality that does not go unnoticed, a wild creativity, which is then the ingredient of enchantment. “A continuous barter between my mind and the painting,” is how the artist defines the creative process. With a first mental plan and a first deliberately rough sketch, not very detailed, because paradoxically it is precisely the detail here that determines the space of gesture and freedom, of improvisation, of the brush that goes following its own internal music. And this letting go of the painting’s will is such that it forces her, sometimes, to add a piece of canvas, underneath the painting she has started. For her narrative must go on and cannot be stopped. After all, Gasparini appears just like that: instinct and reason, Sturm und Drang and Encyclopédie. Opposites that meet on the canvases in the tight dialogue between the surgical meticulousness of detail and the abstract, free gesture that Gasparini often reserves for the edges. Because she fell in love with drawing as a child, but then she was able to go further, choosing to delve into abstraction in order to get inside color, but above all to learn how to deconstruct reality, to disrupt vision and thus find her own authentic voice.
Protagonists of his painting are children. Never chosen at random, beautiful with a beauty that is by no means prissy but rather harsh, rough; capable of looks that force us to question ourselves. Children who have not yet lost the ability to believe in themselves typical of childhood, the sense of omnipotence that nails the adult to the relativity of his own convictions. Not yet human, as the artist defines them, certainly not yet tamed by the mask of adulthood.

GENOVA BOOKPOP FESTIVAL FROM OCTOBER 24 TO 27, 2024
Genoa BookPop Festival 2024, a literary and cultural event conceived by the blog Themeltinpop in collaboration with CDM Lab and Sara Rattaro, will be held in the Ligurian capital from October 24 to 27, 2024.
In this second edition, the festival will host presentations, debates, comparisons, performances, workshops/meetings with schools, free workshops with publishers
comic book illustrators, teachers of creative writing and interpretive reading.
“Every day, what you choose, what you think and what you do is what you become.” (Heraclitus).
The theme chosen for this edition is BECOMING: Genoa BookPop Festival aims to be an open space for sharing, encounter, doubt, knowledge, following the individual and society through the complex and contradictory stages of its becoming. We will address the theme interpreted through the
lens of literature, language, history, philosophy, and science; we will approach it with one eye on the past and one on the future, trying to interpret
our present, also giving new voices to the generations that are moving and transforming. A plurality of looks to find a common path toward
common goals.
The festival will take place partly at the Rossetti Arte Contemporanea gallery, Via Chiabrera 33R, and partly in the archaeological area of Giardini Luzzati –
Spazio Comune, Piazza Luzzati 1, to invite the public to experience more intensely the spaces offered by the heart of the city.

Hashi by Tom Porta
2024-11-28 18:00 - 2024-12-31 18:00 | Rossetti Underground, Via Chiabrera, 7, Genova, (GE), 16123, Italia
Hashi, the bridge.
The bridge constitutes not only a physical but also a metaphorical crossing point in ancient Japanese culture.
It can be crossed in both directions, for example in gardens, to pass over waterways during meditation paths. It represents the passage between states of mind, as well as stages of life or decisions about one’s path.
Hashi’s collection of works, punctuated by four paths (Night, Day, Mono and Stereo) and three bridges represents not necessarily an evolution, rather a sideways glimpse into the perpetual motion of creating, understood as sincere expression, a primal need underlying every artist’s awareness.
It is not known whether this is a new direction or a temporary glimpse, but it is certain that it reflects, after several years of research, an important deep breath in the unfolding of that Kata aimed at perfecting one of the Master Arts on par with the use of the sword and necessary for the completeness of the Samurai.
The opening of the exhibition will take place on Thursday, November 28 at 6 p.m. in the Rossetti Underground space, the basement of Palazzo Saluzzo. Also on this occasion, mindful of previous successful collaborations, the installations in Tom Porta’s exhibition are curated by Virginia Cafiero.
TOM PORTA.
His work focuses on the history of the 20th century, using the past as a mirror of the present, as shown in his highly successful cycle “Shinpu Tokkotai Project” Inspired by Japanese Kamikaze.
The artist is fascinated by the passage of time, the mark on objects, the wear and tear he allows to flow in his journey. There is no casual observer and distraction is literally pulverized by the power of the pictorial stroke, the choice of subjects, the framing, the colors as vital breaths.
VIRGINIA CAFIERO
Virginia Cafiero creates paper doughs with meticulous patience through a careful and painstaking process, to which she combines vegetable elements, which she shapes into subtle irregular forms, with rough surfaces and natural colors. Thus are born paper dresses, kimonos composed of tea bags. He collaborates with numerous city art spaces and exhibits his paper works throughout Europe. He has created exhibitions and installations for a number of museums in Genoa, such as the Commenda di Prè Museum, the Galata del Mare Museum and the St. Augustine Museum.

Senza Filtro (No Filter) by Gianni Lucchesi and Lorenzo Cecilioni
2025-03-27 18:00 - 2025-04-27 20:00 | Genova
Senza Filtro – Gianni Lucchesi and Lorenzo Cecilioni’s bi-personal exhibition
The artistic encounter between Gianni Lucchesi and Lorenzo Cecilioni triggers the magic of transformation, both physical and intellectual: a dialogue in which the essentiality of the structure does not deny the aesthetics of the form, giving rise to a sort of compositional brutalism, understood in its conceptual manifestation as a clear exposition of the structure and enhancement of the materials, which show themselves in their true nature, without superstructures and compromises.

Lucchesi starts with the concept and creates the relationship, Cecilioni guides the elements and places the composition. The two artists are united by their love of material, their compositional sensitivity, their preference for essential, raw materials destined for raw expressiveness. Another element, for different reasons, unites them, namely the symbolic aspect of materials and their chemical-symbolic connotation. Both of them, like alchemists, work to transform matter in order to transform themselves.

The artistic research in the exhibition Senza Filtro wants to draw attention to the brutalism of relationships, of relations, of today’s society. Human beings can also reveal themselves to be brutal, when they show aspects that are crude, essential, and yet true. And it is precisely the investigation into the concept of reality and fiction that occupies a large space in the two artists’ analysis. The intention, therefore, is to take a step backwards, considered, in truth, as a leap towards the essence, to bring us closer to the fascination of constructing a reality that is true, not invented, nor artificial. The idea of subtraction is developed here from a conceptual and social point of view, also applicable to the way we perceive what we see and experience. What remains, by choosing to remove rather than add, is the bare and brutal backbone of the concept, the essentiality of the real, without frills or deception. A search with four hands and two minds, aimed at rediscovering the ability to break the surface, sometimes fake, in favour of a less conspicuous but imposing and solid reality, like truth.

Talking with artists: Gianni Lucchesi
2025-04-15 18:00 - 19:30 | Rossetti arte contemporanea, Via Chiabrera 33r, Genova, 16123, Italia
conversation with the artists
Talk with Gianni Lucchesi

What thought inspired these geometries?
Why does a little man sit on concrete?
What is the significance of the brick?

These are just some of the questions you can ask the artists directly, starting with Gianni Lucchesi, who will be present at the gallery on Tuesday 15 April at 6 p.m. to talk about the themes proposed by the current exhibition, but also to explore any curiosities linked to his personal way of working and expressing himself. A second talk will be organised in May, in the company of Lorenzo Cecilioni.

GIANNI LUCCHESI
Famous in Genoa for his sculpture of a man sitting atop a tower of cubes that watched over and intrigued passers-by in Piazza De Ferrari in the autumn of 2023.

Lucchesi’s work has always been animated by the attempt to visually translate the reflections arising from the investigation of the psyche, of the emotional states of the individual in relation to himself, to others and to his surroundings. Through visual metaphors drawn from universal languages arising from artistic and spiritual research, emotions take shape and colour.
One of his codes of reference is the earth understood as subsoil, as a metaphor for the emotional stratification of the subjects observed: earth as the inner environment and roots as the essence of the subject.
A thread, for the graphic sign or for painting, is a boundary between the self and the outside, with all that it contains also free to contagion and connection on different planes as it happens in the ‘Inner Environments’ in which the lo recurs that marks the passage. The places within which his works come to life are carefully chosen.

Places with an evocative and fascinating depth brushed by nature or by the hand of man, it does not matter, as long as they have that suggestive strength to encompass the new art, the new interpretation of human feeling.

Genova Design Week 2025
2025-05-21 10:00 - 2025-05-25 22:00 | Distretto del Design, Piazza dei Giustiniani, Genova, Italy
MATTER: soul of design
6th Genova Design Week

Sixth edition of the Genova Design Week with more and more designers. In the Design District and throughout the city, the protagonists give life to one extraordinary event.

An opportunity for visibility and professionalism to make people realise the great potential for designers, both in terms of quality and design.
THEME 2025

Matter as a creative and narrative fulcrum, exploring the deep connection between materials, forms and innovation. A journey through tradition and modernity, highlighting the essential role of matter in contemporary design.
Genoa, with its timeless charm, is transformed into a stage where history and the avant-garde meet, paying homage to design as a universal language capable of giving soul to matter.

Organised by Dide – Distretto del Design di Genova, the event announces for this edition a new theme, matter, and some of the contents that have made it famous in recent years, such as Outdoor without borders, Designer Under 35, Container 02, Design Festival and the new Best Houses. GDW thus becomes the city’s heritage, thanks to the entire design sector and the quality of Genoa’s stores, which, if they organise self-organised events, will be included in the event’s communication. The central theme of Genoa Design Week 2025 will be Matter, understood not only as a construction element, but as a creative and narrative principle capable of connecting materials, forms and technology.

MATTER
Matter is the starting point of design, the medium through which designers tell stories, experiment with new solutions and create objects that arouse emotions and transform spaces.

From traditional materials, such as glass, wood, marble and cement, to the most recent innovations in the field of biopolymers, recycled fabrics and biodegradable materials, research is increasingly oriented towards sustainable and intelligent solutions. Materials become expressive languages, capable of dialogue between past and future, between craftsmanship and high technology.

In this edition, designers and companies will explore the potential of materials through installations, workshops and experiments, showing how the choice of materials can redefine the aesthetics, functionality and environmental impact of objects and spaces.

From interactive surfaces to bio-based materials, from 3D printing to reactive fabrics, matter becomes the protagonist of a new way of thinking about design, capable of responding to the challenges of the present with creativity, innovation and ecological awareness.

Genoa Design Week 2025 will therefore be a journey through matter in all its forms, an opportunity to discover how design can give life to new perspectives, improving ourselves, our relationship with the environment and the way we inhabit the world.

EVENTS:

OUT OF THE BLUE: Silvio Porzionato at Messina Terminal
2025-09-19 23:00 - 2025-09-20 01:30 | Terminal Messina – Porto di Genova
Si è svolto, presso il Terminal Intermodale Messina del Porto di Genova, l’evento Out of the Blue, organizzato da Rossetti Arte Contemporanea e dedicato alla presentazione della nuova collezione BlueSeries di Silvio Porzionato, uno degli artisti italiani più apprezzati a livello internazionale.

La cornice insolita e suggestiva del porto industriale, allestita per l’occasione dallo studio di architettura CAARPA, ha accolto ospiti selezionati in un percorso immersivo dove arte, musica e performance teatrali hanno dato vita a un’esperienza unica.

La serata, impreziosita dal dj set di Andy (Bluvertigo) e dalla rappresentazione teatrale de La Bohème messa in atto dalla Compagnia FILRŌ Opera Production, ha visto alternarsi performance musicali e installazioni scenografiche che hanno reso omaggio alla forza evocativa delle opere di Porzionato.

L’artista, nato a Moncalieri nel 1971 e già protagonista di esposizioni in gallerie di primo piano internazionali, in BlueSeries ha riaffermato la sua capacità di coniugare intensità espressiva e raffinatezza pittorica, trasformando i suoi dipinti in un inno alla bellezza e alla complessità dell’arte antica e contemporanea: una serie ispirata ai capolavori dei piu grandi maestri della storia dell’arte realizzata attraverso la sua cifra stilistica, personale ed inconfondibile.

Le sue opere si trovano in numerose gallerie di rilievo, tra cui: Oliver Cole Gallery (Miami), LGM Galeria (Bogotà), ZK Gallery (San Francisco), ArtSpace8 (Chicago), Galeries Montmartre (Parigi), Clarendon Fine Art (Londra), Artion Gallery (Atene) e Artcatto (Loulé, Portogallo). I suoi lavori sono stati presentati in occasione di fiere di caratura mondiale quali ArtMiami, Kiaf Seoul, Art New York, Art Lima, e Contemporary Istanbul Fine Art.

Con Out of the Blue, Rossetti Arte Contemporanea ha voluto offrire non soltanto un’esposizione, ma una vera e propria esperienza culturale, in grado di unire discipline e linguaggi diversi in una cornice fuori dall’ordinario.

OUT OF CONTROL by Julian T
2025-10-03 18:00 - 2025-11-03 18:00 | Rossetti Underground, Via Chiabrera, 7, Genova, (GE), 16123, Italia
On the occasion of Genova START Friday, 3 October will see the opening of Out of Control, the solo exhibition by Julian T
The artist’s research begins with the marvellous simplicity of a small drop falling and crashing onto a sheet of paper, unexpectedly, in a brief instant. Julian T is fascinated by the indomitability of such a linear gesture, exaggerating it across the board and crystallising the ungovernable forever. The result is a painting that does not need to express itself through form, because it is closely linked to being and living.

Impact leaves its manifestation to chance; it is out of control. Randomness is a very fascinating element; not having control means pausing to observe what generates the unpredictable. All forms are metaphors for a state of mind that is identified through the form itself. Kandinsky speaks of the “spirituality of art”, seeing form beyond its own form. An artist must “touch the inner strings of the soul, for his task is not to dominate form, but to adapt form to content”.

Visual art accentuates a subjective interpretation of the work; attributing one’s feelings to an object or a person is an unconscious process: Julian T’s stain becomes a deep black hole, sucking and pulling everything away with it; or explosive force, a mass that spills out, invades and bursts into the room.

The desire to share this experience in front of people, creating pathos and uncontrolled interaction, aims to excite, provoke, stimulate dialogue and elicit changing inspirations.

OPENING OUT OF CONTROL Friday 3 October at 6 p.m.

PERFORMANCE Friday 3 October at 7.30 p.m.
