Franco Guerzoni's Site-Specific Works at Galleria Studio G7 in Bologna

exhibition · 2026-04-26

Franco Guerzoni (born 1948 in Modena) presents 'Fuori dal dipinto' at Galleria Studio G7 in Bologna, marking his twelfth solo show at the venue since 1973. The exhibition features seven site-specific works that engage with the gallery's architecture, continuing his exploration of hidden traces and archaeological layers beneath walls. Guerzoni's practice treats the wall as an open book, revealing subtle signs and works by past artists. The show includes six small pieces that appear as fragments, leading to the large painting 'Intravedere', which guides the viewer's gaze. The title suggests a simultaneous manifestation of painting and fragments as part of a unified gesture. This exhibition reaffirms a relationship spanning over fifty years, not as nostalgia but as a renewed engagement with space, time, and painting's fragility. The show was covered by Artribune, with text by Veronica Camastra.
