Luca Pignatelli's Video Concludes 'Scegli il Contemporaneo. Ti racconto Roma'
Directed by Elena Lydia Scipioni for 'Senza titolo', the video 'Luca Pignatelli. Il riflesso del residuo' signifies the end of the 2022 edition of 'Scegli il Contemporaneo. Ti racconto Roma'. This initiative, which has been promoting contemporary art in Rome since 2017, features Pignatelli (born Milan, 1962), who utilizes various materials such as wood, iron, paper, tarpaulins, hemp canvases, and Persian rugs to delve into the interplay of order and chaos. His artwork contemplates reality and images through fragments and remnants, portraying Rome as 'a territory of unexplorable vastness' imbued with 'the sense of time'. The 2022 program also highlighted a video on the Centro Islamico Culturale d'Italia and special visits to the Fondazione Maria e Goffredo Bellonci, Museo delle Civiltà, and Palazzo delle Esposizioni.
