CONTEMPORARY ART MAGAZINE SINCE 1980 More... the exhibition 1 + 1 heterogeneous similitudes with the works of Elisabetta Bacci and Gregor Purgaj will open at Art Factory in Majšperk And although the declination of the individual works leads to an apparent diversity the conducting impulse for these two artists is the same: the reasoning on the dynamics of color is the real nodal point of their thinking and the indirect way to dialogue at a distance The color in all its chromatic explosions and fragmentations modulated on a ternary system in Bacci’s way and in the whole possibility of the muted and battered tone in Purgaj’s way the drafting of color manifests itself in the construction of the designed space becoming architecture as a definition of the detail within the macrostructure and as a definition of symbolic places defined for simple and flat geometric shapes put to rest under mounds of pigment and color variations where it becomes difficult to perceive the object of the pictorial plots: a trapeze is the pier (in the case of the cycle Piers) a golden rectangle is the Tebah in the case of the same cycle: repetition as a game of perfection the sequence as a compositional and installation scheme the main subject of the story becomes the human figure seen in its infinite expressive possibilities a metaphor of every singularity or sign of every existence becomes the mirror in which – paraphrasing Lautrémont – every image The blink of the eyelashes – consciously brought to his diapason – makes the fantasy fly towards unstoppable goals Characteristic aspect in these works is the immediacy of the message the almost total lack of intellectual mediation: an absence that is to the benefit of the immediate perception of the work We talk with Gregor Purgaj about his work and this project allestimento della mostra Three Cycles al Centre for Contemporary Arts He is editorial director of Juliet art magazine Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" ASSOCIAZIONE JULIET – via Battisti 19/a – 34015 Muggia (TS) Juliet art magazine è pubblicata a cura dell’Associazione Juliet - direttore responsabile Alessio Curto autorizzazione del Tribunale di Trieste registro informatico C.F./P.IVA 00699740320 | c/c postale 12103347 | SWIFT UNCRIT M10MC | IBAN IT75C0200802242000005111867 | UNICREDIT Banca Trieste
