Marco Paleari's "Basta arti senza gloria" at PCM Studio, Milan

exhibition · 2026-10-04

At PCM Studio in Milan, Marco Paleari, a Desio native born in 1998, showcases "Basta arti senza gloria." Central to the exhibition is a manifesto by Ferrante Ruspoli, who posits that true glory lies not in success but in "being poetically committed." He advocates for the deconstruction of reality and the formation of fresh viewpoints devoid of ideological constraints. A unique site-specific installation addresses a crack in the painted floor, incorporating pieces of a disassembled world map and utilizing resin for the first time. The exhibition also features a video titled "Basta arti senza gloria," which alludes to Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds," examining art's role beyond mere celebration. Paleari, a painter who recently won the Premio Combat Prize for "Torero spiaggiato (Best life!)," encourages risk-taking and new perspectives in his work.
