Jim Lambie's Psychedelic Minimalism at Galleria Franco Noero, Turin
Jim Lambie's fifth solo show at Galleria Franco Noero in Turin, titled "Totally Wired" after a post-punk track by The Fall, transforms the 18th-century palazzo opposite the Museo del Risorgimento into a psychedelic minimalist environment. The Scottish artist, born in Glasgow in 1964, uses obsessive repetition of everyday objects—found or constructed—to create a harmonious composition that guides viewers through natural light experiences from dawn to dusk. Elements include door fragments with iridescent hues, mirror-covered staircases leading skyward, and constellations made from sunglass lenses. The exhibition emphasizes how light translates into a tonal range of colors, blending psychedelic color use with minimalist spatial intervention.
