THE GREAT CELESTIAL ABSTRACTION

Rome’s Macro Museum is presenting an exhibition supervised by Achille Bonito Oliva featuring 32 splendid works of art by 15 Chinese artists belonging to different generations. Thanks to these talented artists, it is possible to trace an abstraction in constant evolution since 1973 in which painting has acquired a minimalist dimension and finds its assonance with the artistic pursuit taking place in the West. In the words of Leonardo Da Vinci, “Art is a thing of the mind”. Contemporary Chinese Art – in the complexities of its ancient origins such as Tao, Zen, Chaos and Cosmos – is the result of a lengthy pictorial journey which has freed itself from its initial manual ability as a simple confirmation to tradition.

A TRIBUTE TO ARTE POVERA

For the occasion of the celebration of Arte Povera, two major installations by Jannis Kounellis and Gilberto Zorio that dialogue with the Lymph sculptures by Giuseppe Penone. With its dialogue between artificial and natural elements, Lymph sculptures synthesises one of the strands of research underlying the Arte Povera movement. The installation by Kounellis is a symbol of an ancestral culture that sees in steel and jute materials that reference Primigenia energies. “Canoa Roma”, the work by Zorio, visually involves the external piazza and establishes a relationship of sound and light – suspended between darkness and the light.
