Saturday, October 4 at 11:00 a.m., on the occasion of the 21st Day of Contemporary Art promoted by AMACI, the Municipal Art Gallery of Città di Castello inaugurates the exhibition Riverberi by Valdi Spagnulo, a Milanese artist among the most significant figures of contemporary Italian sculpture.
The exhibition takes its title from the installation that the artist has placed in the Art Gallery, in the garden adjacent to the museum, thus inaugurating a new exhibition space of the second museum in Umbria.
Riverberi (2009) is a work composed of ten vertical elements, each nearly three meters tall, made of polished, darkened, and brushed stainless steel, enriched with inserts of colored and treated plexiglass. The choice of materials—in which the metallic hardness converses with the translucent lightness of the chromatic fields—reflects Spagnulo’s characteristic language: a research that combines constructive rigor and lyrical tension, formal minimalism and sensitivity to light.
Installed in the open space of the garden, the work will establish a direct relationship with natural light and the changing atmospheric conditions, generating ever-new reflections and perceptual variations.
The exhibition is curated by Pasquale Fameli.
