Robert Llimós: Veure #1 at Pastificio Cerere, Rome
Robert Llimós (Barcelona, 1943) presents over fifty works including paintings, sculptures, engravings, and wood pieces in the exhibition 'Veure #1' at Spazio and Fondazione Pastificio Cerere in Rome, curated by Marcello Smarrelli. The show runs until April 20, 2016. The title 'Veure' (Catalan for 'to see') references a vision the artist experienced in Brazil in 2009 that profoundly shaped his human and professional path. His enigmatic, unsettling creatures become almost familiar through obsessive repetition, amplified by mirrors that multiply images and include viewers, prompting reflection on humanity's place in the universe. Llimós explores external reality through personal sensitivity and inspiration, with a mobile yet restless imaginary that is attentive to figuration but not realism. A second installment, 'Veure #2', will take place in the artist's studio in Barcelona.
