Manuel Grosso's Sculptural Process at Circoloquadro, Milan
Manuel Grosso (born 1974 in Gorizia) employs a multi-stage artistic process that begins with research, appropriation, and transformation of raw materials into art. After exploring a territory, he selects a fragment, object, or waste item and creates a cast using polyurethane foam. He then tears the polymerized block and finishes it in his studio. The result balances contingency and creativity, turning found objects into artistic fragments. The exhibition at Circoloquadro in Milan presents this romantic operation, restoring meaning to random fragments. The show is reviewed by Francesca Mattozzi.
