Silvia Argiolas and Giuliano Sale at Galleria Richter, Rome
A two-person exhibition at Galleria Richter in Rome presents works by Silvia Argiolas and Giuliano Sale, both born in Cagliari in 1977. Sale's painting navigates between classical and pornographic, composure and amputation, decontextualization and settlement, offering a contemporary reinterpretation of art history. Argiolas aligns with London bad painting, populating her canvases with obsessive, manic characters charged with tension bordering on orgiastic ritual. Their shared departure from classical harmony seeks a new reconciliation where erotic energy balances surreal expressiveness.
