Fernando De Filippi's Writing-Focused Exhibition at Fondazione Noesi

exhibition · 2026-05-05

Fondazione Noesi in Martina Franca presents 'Fernando De Filippi – Le geometrie del fuoco', curated by Marina Pizzarelli and supported by Regione Puglia. The exhibition highlights the artist's decades-long exploration of writing, featuring works from the 1970s onward, including 'Trascrizioni' (1975), 'Slogan' (late 1970s) reflecting on ideology across Europe and New York, and 1980s 'Miraggi' linking memory of an image (Ziqqurat) to words emerging from liquid forms. De Filippi's recent work burning the word 'ideologia' underscores his performative interest in the intrinsic values of terms tied to his generation. The show runs until July 31, 2016, at Fondazione Noesi, Via Principe Umberto 49.
