From 13 June to 27 September 2020
The Museum of Contemporary Art of Lissone and the Cortesi Gallery are pleased to announce the personal exhibition of Maurizio Donzelli , which can only be visited by appointment from 13 June .
The exhibition project was specially designed by the artist for the spaces of the Museum, creating an immersive environment where the works dialogue in a close and poetic confrontation between subjects and materials. For the first time, in fact, Donzelli proposes a conceptual path where the same image is declined using different techniques: acrylic on paper, mirror, tapestry, resin-coated acrylic.
Inside the exhibition, two different iconographies , one in shades of blue and green, the other in the gray scale, react according to their supports to involve the viewer in a slow and attentive contemplation, thus demonstrating the complexity of the image in relation to matter, space and time.
On the opposite side, another image, which from white thickens into black, dialogues between paper, texture and resin, between absorbency and reflectance, making the visual pattern now projecting towards the viewer, now reluctant to reveal itself at first glance. .
The title of the exhibition, THRESHOLDS , refers to the intrinsic qualities of the artist / alchemist: a true inventor of images, capable of working on their latency (between appearance and trans-formation), on their origin and deviation from a defined and concluded form , intertwining the times and the visual geographies. THRESHOLDS also contains the idea of crossing the "threshold of art" by the viewer, whose gaze is involved in a close relationship with the works that the artist wants free and spontaneous, in a relationship of reciprocity and discovery keep on.
