Visual Arts Winter exhibitions at the Collicola Palace
Cristina MMR Bonucci ("In Kengo Kuma"), Beverly Pepper ("Beverly Pepper 1963"), "Favours for guests", Franco Marrocco ("The Wood's Echo"), Vincenzo Pennacchi ("The crack") and "Obic" at the Collicola Palace, Francesco Irnem ("Ground Layer") at the Roman House: these are the winter exhibition at the Spoleto's Collicola Palace that will go on until 26 March 2017.
"In Kengo Kuma" proposes three new artworks of the Spoleto artist Cristina MMR Bonucci: three smaller-scale houses, three architectonic islands, three mental space. The exhibition pays tribute to the architectural perspective of the artist, between visionary sculpture and sensorial settings, sacred and synesthesia, beauty and morality.
"Beverly Pepper 1963" collects six sculptures from 1963 signed by the famous artist: an important donation made to the Spoleto's museum that represents the continuity of history and purposes in the relationship between the American sculptor and the Umbrian territory.
"Favours for guests" is a new cycle devoted to the world of private gallery owners with their stories, choices, passions and intuitions: a narrative and compelling itinerary, imagined as a cultural adventure and built like an interior retrospective.
"The Wood's Echo" is the personal exhibition of Franco Marocco: the journey of the artist through his elegant crossfade universe, among dreams' forests, hybrid natures, interior maps, spiritual recalls.
"The Crack" is the Vincenzo Pennacchi's project: after the earthquake that hit the museum in a superficial but evident way, the artist turned the damage according to a constructive perspective. Vincenzo Pennacchi intervened on different walls of the Zero Floor, in the area hosting the Collicola's Collection and some artworks of the 2.0. Collection.
"Obic" is the ambitious project linking food and visual arts: it's an exhibition showing the visual, thematic, philosophical and moral interesections between artworks and recipe.
Lastly, the Roman House will host "Ground Layer" by Francesco Irnem: a reflection about archetypes and their fluid movement, about ways through which "traditional" languages combine with electronical textures, as well as about linguistic systems managing the classical memory and its complex "conservation".
