Michele Lombardelli—Untitled
Monographic Book
Michele Lombardelli—Untitled solo exhibition at MAGA (February 26th–May 8th, 2022), starting from the pictorial works of recent years, the exhibition intertwines the different languages experimented by the artist, highlighting how Lombardelli’s interest, research, and lateral thinking they move at the same time towards painting as a sign, the photographic image as text, the book as an object of investigation, and sound as a material for exploration and dimension without measures and boundaries.
On display a series of recent paintings by the artist based on rigorous chromatic and geometric variations that do not exclude the unexpected and at the same time reformulate the idea of abstraction, dissolving any referential connection with the representability of reality. In the artist’s poetics the pictorial works, as well as the photographs, and the sound and musical projects, present in the exhibition, move away from the idea of synthesis or referentiality of the sign and image to give space to the mute, and at the same time sonorous presence of the signifying.
Lombardelli’s work, extremely free in the choice of expressive means (painting, photography, drawing, screen printing, sound) and supports (canvas / board, paper, carpet, ceramic, vinyl) is characterized by an environmental vocation and an expansive quality in which a constant and subtle tension flows between balance and precariousness, disorder and control: elements of an even tighter dialectic when the artist performs the sound.
