Marco Neri curates 'Lampante' with 20 young painters at Kappa Noun
In San Lazzaro di Savena, Kappa Noun is hosting an exhibition called 'Lampante. Nuove luci della pittura in Italia,' curated by Marco Neri, who has been in the art scene since 1985. This exhibition features artwork from twenty of his students at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Lecce, including names like Giulia Arcobelli and Francesca Bovino. You can check it out until May 4, 2025. The title 'Lampante' was inspired by a conversation Neri had with Ghigi about the olive oil from Salento. In a recent chat, he discussed his teaching style, the state of contemporary painting in Italy, and his recent exhibitions at Fondazione Pascali and the Uffizi.
