Pressrelease

This exhibit is a just tribute to Giuseppe Vittorio Parisi, who conceived and founded the modern art museum called “Parisi-Valle” after the artist and his wife Wanda  Maria Valle.
He was born in 1915 in Maccagno. After moving to Milan, he begins studying art and from the 30’s he begins to develop his own style of abstract art based on rationality, compositional structure, and tecniques that were – for those years – experimental and corageous.  

”Sinfonia dedicata” stresses Parisi’s versatility in terms of expressive choices and materials, as well as his constant artistic research. All this is expressed in the works of the artists that have been invited to partecipate and create a dialog that has as a pivot Parisi’s body of work.

Parisi’s many facets are mirrored in the metamorphoses of matter by Stefano Soddu and Filippo Barbieri, in the spacially harmonic sculptures by Maria Molteni and Roberto Vecchione, in the recycled materials turned into exhilarating works by Daniela Nenciulescu and Niccolò Mandelli Contegni, in the rules of color that can be found in the intensity of Vincenzo Parea’s works and in the propulsive luminosity of Orazio Bacci’s production, in the cosmic visions of infinity by Andrea Carini, in the intangibility of volumes and shapes created by Daniele Nitti Sotres and Lucio Perna.
The exhibition underlines the similarities, quotations and affinities between the eleven guest artists (for a total of thirty-three works) and Parisi, and displays quite a few sculptures and paintings by Giuseppe Vittorio Parisi himself.

Designed by Claudio Rizzi, coordinated by Ad Acta, sponsored by Regione Lombardia and Provincia di Varese, catalog by Silvia Editrice. This exhibit is yet another chapter in contemporary art for the public to enjoy.
