Marianne Vierø's 'Figure Bold' at Ritaurso Artopia Gallery, Milan

exhibition · 2026-05-04

Marianne Vierø (born 1979, Copenhagen) presents a dual-section exhibition at Ritaurso Artopia Gallery in Milan. The show, titled 'Figure Bold,' explores painting through both three-dimensional installations that invade common spaces and a more classical abstract section, 'Documentation of Imagined Sculpture,' inspired by the 1961 book 'Devenir de Fontana' edited by Ezio Gribaudo. Vierø's style merges craftsmanship with contemporary techniques, featuring wood engravings on frames and Photoshop commands as graphic elements. The unifying theme is the brush and painting in all its forms, offering a comprehensive yet elusive vision of her artistic world.
