Cosimo Casoni's 'The Sunday Side' at Clima Gallery, Milan

Clima Gallery in Milan presents 'The Sunday Side', a solo exhibition by Florentine artist Cosimo Casoni (b. 1990). Casoni's paintings combine traditional elements like landscapes, still lifes, and trompe-l'oeil with monochrome surfaces, graphic elements, and found objects. A recurring motif is the mark left by dirty skateboard wheels, which disrupts otherwise serene, suspended scenes. The artist also incorporates spray paint, evoking the jarring interruption of a Sunday afternoon nap by a car horn. The gallery bets on Casoni's vibrant vision, which, despite a sometimes immature aesthetic, offers interesting visual cues and promising irony. The exhibition runs until November 16, 2016, at Clima Gallery, Via Alessandro Stradella 5, Milan.
