Italian and international artists have warmly embraced the invitation from gallerist Sofia Macchi for the XIII Edition of this highly anticipated exhibition. Painters and sculptors have taken on the challenge of engaging with different dimensions, each expressing their artistic vision without constraints of theme or technique.
Paolo CAMPA opens the exhibition with his floral compositions, as delicate as they are detailed. The flowers invite reflection on the fragility of what surrounds us, while Walter TRECCHI portrays the grace of trees. His paintings, an intricate play of canopies and reflections, capture the metamorphosis of the landscape, reflecting on change as the very engine of existence.
The theme of environmental respect emerges strongly through Jessica Carroll and Jernej Forbici. CARROLL combines drawing and three-dimensional wax elements to give voice to often-overlooked forms of life, while FORBICI explores humanity's impact on the ecosystem, inviting deep and necessary reflection. Young artist Valentina DIENA enriches the exhibition with her drawings inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales. Her meticulously crafted artworks transport viewers to a fairy-tale world, evoking nostalgia and wonder. Claudio FILIPPINI offers an immersion into landscapes and collective memory through the album covers that have shaped music history. His works act as a bridge between past and present, evoking familiar memories and sensations. The paintings of Pietro GERANZANI carry reflections on collective identity through a style close to European Expressionism.
A major highlight of the exhibition is L’orMa, the young Milanese sculptor who uses paper in surprising ways. His sculptures push the boundaries of matter, transforming paper into extraordinary creations. In contrast, PAO focuses on the limits of perception, presenting artworks that challenge the laws of space and form, inviting interaction with the artwork in unexpected ways. The city, with its multiple facets, is a recurring theme in the works of Nicola Nannini, Joan Peris, Mauro Reggio, and Tomàs Sunyol. NANNINI gifts us with sweet Venetian sunsets, while REGGIO captures glimpses of Rome, each with its unique atmosphere. PERIS and SUNYOL, meanwhile, offer almost abstract interpretations, creating horizons and streets that intertwine in a visual dialogue. The sculptures of Alice ZANIN, with their exceptional technical execution, seem to bring to life creatures floating in the void, while Silvia LEVENSON's glass works speak of hope and wonder, inviting viewers to look beyond the visible and dream. Finally, Pierantonio TANZOLA surprises with artworks that evoke memories through photographic cuts, transforming fleeting moments into lasting fragments of memory.
Some of the artists will be present at the public opening reception on SATURDAY, JUNE 20 from 11 AM to 1 PM at the main gallery in Viale Sant’Antonio 59/61, Varese (Italy) The exhibition will be on view until August 1, 2026.
