Pierluigi Pusole's Antinatural Painting at Riccardo Costantini, Turin

exhibition · 2026-05-04

Pierluigi Pusole (born 1963 in Turin) presents a solo exhibition at Riccardo Costantini in Turin, featuring his antinatural approach to painting. Pusole's imagery rejects sensory data in favor of simplified forms derived from collective codes and memory, treating image creation and decoding as a single process. His work, described as that of a rebellious demiurge, transforms ordinary figuration into 'Pittura' (Painting), asserting a voice of beauty and cultured aesthetics amid political and social change. The exhibition is reviewed by Federica Maria Giallombardo, who highlights Pusole's role as a 'perplexed God' navigating contemporary uncertainties.
