Abstract

La Galleria Segni Mutanti di Roma inaugura i suoi spazi e la sua attività espositiva con la mostra NOVE, un titolo che, con un gioco sospeso tra l’ironia e la metafora, si ispira a un numero di antica valenza simbolica e magica che corrisponde a quello degli artisti inseriti in questo primo evento espositivo. La mostra comprende dunque artisti di area romana che lavorano prevalentemente con la pittura e la scultura senza trascurare tuttavia l’utilizzo di altre tecniche come l’arazzo, il digitale, la fotografia e il video e che, nonostante le differenze che segnano le diverse personalità, compongono un quadro unitario nell’ambito dell’arte contemporanea. Il volume accoglie un testo del curatore.

Artisti: Angelo Bellobono, Alessandro Cannistrà, Francesco Cervelli, Fabrice de Nola, Stefania Fabrizi, David Fagioli, Emilio Leofreddi, Adriano Nardi, Gisella Pietrosanti

Roma, novembre 2007 - gennaio 2008

The SMAC gallery inaugurates its spaces, its exhibition programme and its catalogue series with the exhibition NOVE. The title, playfully ironic and metaphorical, is inspired by the number nine and its ancient symbolic and magical associations, as well as by the number of artists included in this first exhibition. Nove comprises works by artists from the Rome area who work mainly in painting and sculpture, albeit without failing to employ other techniques like tapestry, digital art, photography and video.

Angelo Bellobono, Alessandro Cannistrà, Francesco Cervelli, Fabrice de Nola, Stefania Fabrizi, David Fagioli, Emilio Leofreddi, Adriano Nardi and Gisella Pietrosanti thus clearly indicate the gallery’s desire to work rigorously and systematically in the field of painting and sculpture in its most up-to-date forms and in their overlaps with the idioms of the new media and the most advanced technologies, open to exchanges and fusion with other contemporary languages in a conception based on a mental image linked dynamically to the dialectic tensions of the present day.
