Daniel Lergon's Phthalocyanine Green Paintings at Galleria Mario Iannelli
Galleria Mario Iannelli in Rome presents an exhibition of works by German artist Daniel Lergon (born 1978 in Bonn), focusing on his use of phthalocyanine green pigment. The paintings explore the potential of light through layered applications of fluorescent yellow and 'phtalogreen' structures, creating a 'fluo' effect that oscillates between brilliance and darkness. The works feature dancing, arabesque-like figures that emerge from the chromatic abstraction, animating in multiple directions for the viewer. The installation is minimal, with paintings occupying nearly every available white wall, allowing for harmonious viewing and total immersion in the physical space of the canvases. The exhibition was reviewed by Silvia Mattina, an art historian born in Rome in 1984, who specializes in modern art and Baroque. The show ran in 2017.
