Galleria Marconi di Cupra Marittima presenta Equilibrismi


Franco Anzelmo's 
Equilibrismi (Acrobatics) 
Curated by Dario Ciferri


The third installment of the art expositions, Being twenty will open at Marconi Gallery in Cupra Marittima on February 28 at 6 p.m. The exhibition is organized by Marconi Gallery and Marche Centro d'Arte, and curated by Dario Ciferri, also author of the critical text.

Acrobatics is the third appointment of the series of exhibitions Being Twenty which will continue at Marconi Gallery through the entire 2014-2015 exposition season.

“Franco Anzelmo's figures are concentrated on a delicate, physical, psychological and or ideal acrobatics. Suspended and surprised in a moment of amazement, observation or research, they stand with the delicate balance between outside and inside, between earth and sky, in a complex but fascinating path. Anzelmo seems to be interested in the research of a center of gravity trying to tell the man and his variations. Acrobatics catches the eye and takes it to a dimension of wonder, where poetry and reflection come together.

It's an aesthetic research which doesn't limit itself in showing humanitry but goes deeper to the inwardness, digging, describing, laying it bare. It's perhaps for this reason that his works are nudes, because they can grasp the most intimate, delicate and fragile side of the human being. Nudity testifies all the innocence of man, the one we would like to see, which we know exists inside ourselves and would be nice if we could manifest”. (Dario Ciferri)

What does "Being Twenty" mean? 
It's the meeting between dreams and new perspectives, expectations that open, new directions you take, yet it's the time of life in which we encounter the real responsibilities and sorrow. It is the growth with a look to the past and an eye to the future, Once again Marconi Gallery tries to talk about art with the responsibility to know where it is and on what basis it should continue to grow. Reaching twenty isn't a small task and it isn't easy, yet it is a key point to continue to grow with one's dreams beyond the illusions. (http://youtu.be/Nvvu9fN9qeE)

Equilibrismi è il terzo appuntamento del ciclo di mostre Avere vent’anni che accompagnerà la Galleria Marconi per tutta la stagione espositiva 2014/2015.

“Come fossero su un filo ideale le figure di Franco Anzelmo si concentrano su delicati equilibrismi, fisici, psicologici e/o ideali. Sospese e sorprese in un attimo di stupore, di osservazione o di ricerca, si reggono sul delicato equilibrio tra esterno ed interno, tra terra e cielo, in un percorso complesso ma suggestivo. La ricerca di un baricentro sembra essere l’interesse di Anzelmo nel tentativo di raccontare l’uomo e le sue infinite declinazioni. Gli equilibrismi insomma catturano lo sguardo e lo portano in una dimensione di stupore, dove poesia e riflessione si incontrano e dialogano al di sopra della materia ma con la forza della materia.
È una ricerca estetica che non si limita a mostrare l’umanità ma si addentra nell’interiorità, la scava, la descrive, la mette a nudo. E forse è proprio per questo motivo che le sue opere sono dei nudi, perché dell’essere umano sanno cogliere il lato più intimo, più delicato, più fragile. La nudità testimonia tutta l’innocenza dell’uomo quella che vorremmo vedere, che sappiamo esistere dentro noi, che sarebbe bello sapessimo manifestare.” (Dario Ciferri)
Cosa vuol dire avere vent’anni? In qualche modo rappresenta l’incontro tra i sogni e le nuove prospettive, aspettative che si aprono, nuove direzioni che si prendono, eppure è il momento nella vita in cui ci si imbatte nelle vere responsabilità, nel dolore. È la crescita con uno sguardo al passato e l’occhio al futuro. Ancora una volta la Galleria Marconi prova a parlare di arte, cercando di rinnovarsi e di innovare ma con la responsabilità di sapere dove si trova e su quali basi deve continuare a crescere. Arrivare a vent’anni non è poco e non è facile, eppure è un punto fondamentale per continuare a crescere con i propri sogni e al di là delle illusioni. (http://youtu.be/Nvvu9fN9qeE)

Luminous Legacies: Yoichi Ohira’s Murano Glass at Magazzino Italian Art

A new exhibition in Cold Spring, New York, is bringing the luminous legacy of Murano glassmaking into focus through the work of Japanese artist Yoichi Ohira. “Yoichi Ohira: Japan in Murano” is on view at  Magazzino Italian Art  until February 2027. The exhibit showcases the work of Ohira, who became a leading figure in the design of Venetian glassworks on the island of Murano. The exhibition features works that highlight the uniqueness of Ohira’s art across the decades of his career. Ohira’s earliest Murano works blend Venetian glass techniques with his own style. These pieces show balanced shapes, clear surfaces, and striking color combinations. His Venezia e l’Oriente (Venice and the Orient) decanters reflect Venice’s ties to the East, creating vases inspired by Marco Polo’s tales with a modern twist. The exhibition shows Ohira’s respect for Murano’s glass masters, displaying objects alongside preparatory drawings that map ideas to the final works of art. It also explores ho...

The Legend of Alberto Sordi - Rome's Eternal Son

′′They will always judge you, whether you behave well or if you behave badly. So screw it and live as you want but above all don't listen to anyone.′′  - Alberto Sordi By giving his fellow Italians something to laugh about during tumultuous times, he emerged as his generation’s King of Comedy. One of Italy’s best-loved personalities, Alberto Sordi played a pivotal role in Italian cinema from the end of World War II to the postwar economic boom of the 1950s. During those tumultuous years, he gave his countrymen a hearty laugh when they might have otherwise cried. Former Italian President Carlo Azeglio Ciampi perhaps said it best: “Alberto Sordi interpreted the feelings of Italians, especially in their most difficult and tough moments.” Born in the Trastevere neighborhood of Rome in 1920, Sordi grew up in a creative household. His mother was an elementary school teacher and his father, a professional musician for the Rome Opera House. A young Sordi joined the children’s choir o...

Netflix's 'Il Gattopardo" — A classic reborn

Netflix photo A new Netflix series adaptation of “The Leopard,” based on Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa’s seminal novel, is captivating audiences worldwide. Directed by British filmmaker Tom Shankland, the series revisits the iconic tale first brought to the screen by Luchino Visconti in 1963. Set against the backdrop of 1860s Sicily during the Risorgimento, the film follows Prince Fabrizio Salina (Kim Rossi Stuart), an aging aristocrat witnessing the decline of the Sicilian nobility and the rise of a new social order. As Garibaldi’s forces land in Sicily, the prince reflects on the now-fleeting aristocratic way of life. His nephew Tancredi (Saul Nanni) embraces the changes and aligns himself with the new order, famously stating, “If we want things to stay as they are, things will have to change.” Prince Fabrizio, once the epitome of male, moneyed privilege, finds himself grappling with a changing world where his way of life is becoming obsolete. He comes to realize that the aristocracy ...

Alessandro Gassmann: Born to Act

Alessandro Gassmannin his directorial debut "Razzabastarda" Alessandro Gassmann is the son of the iconic Italian actor/director Vittorio Gassman and French actress Juliette Mayniel. He was born in 1965 and grew up around cinema royalty.  He made his cinema debut in 1982 at the age of 17 in his father's autobiographical film, "Di padre in figlio." He went on to study his craft under his father's direction at the Theatre Workshop of Florence.  Vittorio Gassman was very active in theater and seemed just as comfortable on stage as he did in front of the camera. Known for his powerful interpretations of Dante's "Inferno" and "Paradiso," it is no surprise that he nurtured his son's acting aspirations on stage before he launched his career in television and film. One of Gassmann's strong qualities, which he undoubtedly inherited from his father is his incredible range and ease in going from genre to genre. He can play ...

Federico Fellini: A Look into the Life and Career of an Icon

A Fellini family portrait  “The term became a common word to describe something on the surface you can say is bizarre or strange, but actually is really like a painter working on a film,” said Martin Scorsese when asked to define “Felliniesque,” an adjective inspired by one of the greatest filmmakers of all time. The oldest of three children, Federico Fellini was born in the seaside town of Rimini in 1920. His father was a traveling salesman, so his mother was left to do the bulk of raising the children. One can argue that Fellini was born for his destiny. “You could tell that even as a child, he was different and unique. He was very intelligent, well above average. He was always the one to organize things, direct the others, make up games. He could control the other kids with just a look, said Fellini’s sister, Maddalena, in an interview with journalist Gideon Bachmann.  Not only was Fellini directing the children, but he was also putting on shows and charging ...
