Raffaele Falcone's 'La scacchiera impossibile' at Museo Madre Napoli

Antonello Tolve harshly criticizes Raffaele Falcone's solo exhibition 'La scacchiera impossibile' at Museo Madre in Naples, calling it embarrassing and poorly curated. The show, organized in collaboration with Fornace Falcone, marks the first of three exhibitions celebrating the kiln's centenary. Tolve argues the display resembles a shop window and lacks substance, questioning the selection criteria and noting the absence of press materials. He contrasts it with the museum's previous successes and suggests a focus on overlooked artists like Ableo (Carmine Limatola) would have been more fitting. The exhibition is curated by Andrea Viliani and Valerio Falcone, with a free guided tour scheduled for January 26. Tolve's review appears in Artribune, an Italian art magazine.
