In concomitance with the nineteenth Giornata del Contemporaneo, Violetti Arte Contemporanea is pleased to present Eltjon Valle's solo exhibition “IgnoteTerre”, curated by Elena Violetti.

An exhibition on earth and matter, which proposes a reflection on the concept of the unknown, not with a negative value but with the meaning of new, not yet explored. Cosmic landscapes that suggest the idea of distant scenarios, free from constraints and borders. In a continuous alternation between hope and condemnation towards contemporary man responsible for our future, Eltjon Valle critically investigates a very current issue, against the backdrop of new international conflicts and marked by a strong ecological accent, namely the issue of oil, questioning on the possibility of representing a world marked by human choices.

Through the use of poor materials, such as debris or earth, mixed with raw materials and colour, the complete absence of figuration leaves no room for anything other than the suggestive power of raw objectivity.

Eltjon Valle introduces us to a poetics based on the intrinsic value of matter reduced to its primordial state. He gives life to a research that frees itself from the ideal and rational control of the image in favor of the expressiveness of the earth in its crumbly and lumpy substance. Valle intends to project himself "beyond the boundaries of terrestrial reality", to the point of investigating the mysteries of the cosmos

The exhibition, with free entry, can be visited until October 31st, from Monday to Saturday, according to the usual opening hours and on Sundays by appointment.
