Francesco Gennari's 'Sta arrivando il temporale' at GAMeC Bergamo
Francesco Gennari, born in 1973 in Pesaro and currently residing between Milan and Pesaro, showcases 'Sta arrivando il temporale' at GAMeC in Bergamo. This exhibition signifies a departure from his previous portrait-centric pieces, including 'Autoritratto con menta' (2007-10) and 'Ma, non so in effetti quali siano realmente i miei sentimenti' (2009). The artworks are displayed both vertically and horizontally, crafted from traditional materials like patinated and natural bronze, alongside organic and industrial elements. Floor sculptures reflect psychological states influenced by time and events. Notably, two 2019 'Autoritratto su menta (con camicia bianca)' pieces stand sentinel, embodying emptiness. Curated by Ginevra Bria from Isisuf, the exhibition also introduces new glass and marble works inspired by Baroque architecture.
