Alice Paltrinieri and Iacopo Pinelli in Duo Show at Ramo Gallery, Como

exhibition · 2026-04-27

The duo show 'Non c'è niente da vedere' (There's Nothing to See) at Ramo Gallery in Como brings together Alice Paltrinieri (Rome, 1987) and Iacopo Pinelli (Gavardo, 1993), two artists who discovered they share the same birthday six years apart. Curated by gallerist Simon David, the exhibition explores themes of windows, curtains, and perception. Paltrinieri's sculptures, titled 'W/Smoke,' use double-glazed glass units with smoke machines triggered by viewers to obscure the view, turning the window into a wall. Pinelli's works employ photosensitive foam rubber exposed to sunlight for long periods, capturing shadows of everyday objects; each piece is titled after its exposure duration. The show contrasts Paltrinieri's blocked space with Pinelli's fragmented time, inviting viewers to remain vigilant. The exhibition runs at Ramo Gallery in Como.
