“on the subversion of opacity” Exhibition

This event has ended.

Cuchifritos Gallery + Project would love to share some information about our new new show, “on the subversion of opacity,” featuring work by Arianna Carossa and Beatrice Glow, curated by Alessandro Facente.

Through site-specific installations, including sculpture and digital prints on silk, this exhibition considers the ways in which artists provide an indirect view of reality, representing it as a fictional mythology drawn from its facts, forms, or histories, but never reflecting them directly. Even as a fiction, this mythology is able, perhaps even more so, to reveal the original reality at its core; an inner essence not beholden to its usual context, interpretation or common understanding. Instead, the new work behaves as autonomous form; an expanded field that is both in balance and in tension with the one from which it has been originally generated.
