Nunzio's Sculptural Tension at Museo Riso, Palermo

The Museo Riso in Palermo presents a solo exhibition of Italian sculptor Nunzio (born 1954 in Cagnano Amiterno), curated by Bruno Corà and organized in collaboration with Galleria Adalberto Catanzaro. The show features a non-chronological selection of works spanning from 1990 to 2016, including sculptures in wood, lead, and combusted materials, as well as a large triptych on paper. Key pieces include 'Selva' (1990), a lead plane with sharp linear forms, and an untitled 2016 work that carves a parallelepiped into an opaque surface. The installation emphasizes the interplay between void and volume, with white walls contrasting the dark, rhythmic forms. Nunzio's practice merges sculptural gesture, architectural logic, and painterly sensitivity, exploring abstraction through material density and spatial tension. The exhibition runs until September 10, 2016.
