Eugenio Tibaldi's 'Balera' at Umberto Di Marino Gallery in Naples
Eugenio Tibaldi (born 1977 in Alba) presents 'Balera' at Umberto Di Marino Gallery in Naples, an exhibition that reimagines provincial Italian life through layered installations and narratives. The project, originally conceived for Museo Michetti in 2019, includes three installations and three related projects. Works like 'Più là che Abruzzi_4' (2019) combine aluminum strips with a fan to evoke personal stories of isolation and longing. Tibaldi's practice, described as chameleonic, engages viewers through spatial and conceptual complexity. The exhibition follows his 2021 projects 'Architetture dell'isolamento' at Tenuta dello Scompiglio, 'Temporary Landscape' at PAV in Turin, 'Anthropogenic Connection' at Zoma Museum in Addis Ababa, and 'Notturno con figura' at Galleria Nazionale di Roma. Curated by Simone Ciglia, 'Balera' transforms marginality into a poignant visual narrative.
