Nicola Carrino's 'Reconstructing City' at CAMUSAC in Cassino
The CAMUSAC in Cassino hosts a comprehensive solo exhibition of Nicola Carrino (Taranto, 1932), titled 'Reconstructing City. Progetto Camusac 2016. Costruttivi. Decostruttivi. Ricostruttivi. 1959-2013', curated by Bruno Corà. The show spans the artist's entire career, featuring installations across the museum's five plastic nuclei. Works include stainless steel blocks, parallelepipeds, and black iron sheet reliefs, materials evoking Carrino's hometown. His practice transforms matter and space into an environment that is also territory, employing a minimal, almost suprematist language. The process of constructing, deconstructing, and reconstructing becomes an ethical mission demanding responsibility. Carrino acts as a modern demiurge, creating new matter from primordial forms and substances. The exhibition runs until September 30, 2016.
