Gianni Asdrubali's 'Assolo' at Matteo Lampertico, Milan

Gianni Asdrubali (Tuscania, 1955) presents fifteen new works in his solo exhibition 'Assolo' at Matteo Lampertico in Milan, running until December 15, 2016. The show opened with a live painting performance, during which the artist created a piece in front of the audience. Asdrubali's practice, developed since the 1970s, focuses on creating spherical space beyond the two-dimensional surface through aggressive brushwork, which critic Bruno Corà compares to a bullfighter's strikes. The artist states that any support is dematerialized and annulled by his painting. The exhibition features variations in gesture and color, continuing his spatial research into the depths of void beyond the threshold of color.
