Ignazio Moncada's 'Le Rappresentazioni' at Galleria Milano

The Galleria Milano in Milan is presenting 'Le Rappresentazioni', a cycle of large-scale paintings by Ignazio Moncada (Palermo, 1932 – Milano, 2012) that fuse painting and theater. The works, described as a colorful theatrical backdrop, evoke mythological landscapes and recall the artistic universes of Klimt, Matisse, and Miró. Moncada constructs an abstract universe of objects, plants, animals, and anthropomorphic creatures floating on chromatic fields that suggest the Earth in its early days of creation. The series draws parallels with epic performances such as Peter Brook's 'The Mahabharata' and Ronconi's 'Le Baccanti', sharing an existentialist approach to mythology. The exhibition highlights Moncada's ability to blend physical and conceptual breadth, creating a mosaic-like experience that transports viewers into a dreamlike journey.
