Until 11th June at P420 Art Gallery, the exhibition Di Semplicità e Di Brivido by Filippo de Pisis will be held.
Di Semplicità e di Brivido consists of a dialogue, suggested in a non-dogmatic and non-philological way, between around twenty-five works by one of the most important painters of the Italian 20th century, Filippo de Pisis (Ferrara, 1896 – Milan, 1956), and the works of seven international painters – Richard Aldrich (Hampton, 1975), Michael Berryhill (El Paso, 1972), Luca Bertolo (Milan, 1968), Paul Housley (Stalybridge, 1964), Merlin James (Cardiff, 1960), Mairead O’hEocha (Dublin, 1962), Maaike Schoorel (Santpoort, 1973).
The dialogue can certainly be triggered by faint recurrences of subject matter, but above all under the banner of an impulsive, automatic and at the same time apparently unresolved, contrasted and “provisional” idea of figuration, aspects that have always been at the heart of de Pisis’ late style and of some of the most significant research in painting today.
