La mostra dedicata a Gianfranco Baruchello – ideata con l'amico Mauro Panzera che, recentemente scomparso, non ha purtroppo potuto seguire lo sviluppo del progetto – si focalizza su nucleo di ventiquattro opere storiche, che abbracciano gli anni dal 1962 al 1978, significativo per il delinearsi del suo linguaggio fino a una completa e complessa definizione.
Attraverso la riduzione o meglio la miniaturizzazione di sistemi complessi, Baruchello su bianchi ma elaborati fondali, dà sostanza al suo Microcosmo, in cui gli elementi sezionati e ricostruiti sono definiti con miniata esattezza. Questa ricostruzione onirica e ironica, dettaglio infinitesimale dell'elemento insignificante o banale, si distende su una superficie policentrica: ogni singola minuzia, centrale e periferica a un tempo, tende a spezzare la visione d’insieme e accresce il senso di incertezza e di indeterminazione.
The exhibition devoted to the historic works of Gianfranco Baruchello was envisaged by our friend Mauro Panzera whose recent passing meant that he was unfortunately not able to follow the project to its realisation. On this occasion, albeit well aware of the importance of Baruchello’s recent oeuvre, we have tried to put together a series of twenty-four pieces from 1962 to 1978.
The compositions embrace the fundamental period of his activity when his first works came together, and he acquired his own precise code of expression by shattering or rather ‘reducing’ the world into pieces.
Today you find 196463 artists, and 8171 curators in 222568 exhibitions in 12604 venues (resulting in 767845 network edges) from 1880 to present, in 1547 cities in 162 countries, plus 277 professional and private artwork offers.
