TACI, ANZI PARLIAMO, THE CHEAP PUBLIC ART INTERVENTION

If you go to Bologna, pass by the bus station and observe the works of CHEAP street poster art, a public art project, a collective, a non-objective gaze.

Founded in Bologna in 2013 from the creative understanding and determination of 6 women, CHEAP has curated and realised paper-based public art interventions: paste-up, i.e. the use of paper and glue, is both the technique investigated by the project and a declaration of intent in terms of dedication to the ephemeral and research of the contemporary as temporary.

CHEAP now brings a new public art intervention on the street: TACI, or rather PARLIAMO
From 10 June until the end of September 2022, 50 new posters will mark the 250 square metre wall of the Bologna bus station in Viale Masini.

HYPERREALISM IN THE WORKS OF CAROLE A. FEUERMAN

“The queen of super-realism” is how art historian John Spike described Carole A. Feuerman, the American artist famous the world over for her coloured resin sculptures.

The subjects that have characterised her artistic career from the very beginning are swimmers, women depicted in a moment of stillness, athletic figures portrayed in the act of greatest physical tension, up to the latest homages to the great classics.

Serj’s works between past and present

Serj, Untitled, 2022, olio su tela, 140×180 cm. Ph. Michele Alberto Sereni

SERJ’S WORKS BETWEEN PAST AND PRESENT

Serj was born in Bergamo in 1985 but lives and works in Berlin.
His work takes shape through a progressive analysis linked to the concept of the work of art as a ‘machine’, an organism composed of elements capable of generating a space of possibilities and producing meaning, knowledge, orientation.

His latest works aim to create a relationship with the architecture and frescoes of the 15th-century Palazzo Oldofredi Tadini Botti in Torre Pallavicina (Bergamo).

Beauty in contemporary art

Giorgio de Chirico, Ettore e Andromaca (1956)

BEAUTY IN CONTEMPORARY ART

Only 20th-century artists have succeeded in demonstrating that beauty is not an aesthetic factor but something that comes from deep within and can be found even in the smallest and most insignificant thing.

Is it possible to describe beauty in contemporary art and its meaning in artistic research through some of the great masterpieces and unpublished works of the 20th century?
21Gallery in Treviso tries with an exhibition that compares the works of Afro, Giacomo Balla, Alighiero Boetti, Giorgio de Chirico, Fortunato Depero and many other 20th-century artists.
