Verified profile


Vittorio D’Augusta, a contemporary artist of Fiumana origin and adopted by Rimini, exhibits at the Tramonti Museum in Faenza his production prepared for the occasion: several works that, if properly installed, would "dialogue" with the precious ceramic works present, except that "dialogue" is a word he doesn't like to use, he doesn't even like it much, he finds it consolatory, aestheticizing, and formal, but not adherent to our time. Therefore, he is working to set up an original installation in which the perception of the works is "disturbed".


On display are vertical paintings, narrow and tall, protective and guardians. They will not be hung, they will stand, in a row, and tell about themselves. They have no titles, "to avoid misunderstandings". They do not refer to anything else, they do not tolerate metaphors or symbols, they are vain, they stand there, standing, to be looked at, nonchalant.

 


To pollute the beautiful exhibition without, however, detracting from the aesthetic dimension inherent in the place that hosts it, there will be an unwanted guest who will only remove the disturbance at the end, to move on and continue to disturb elsewhere.


"A good critic would say that the installation refers to a postmodern atmosphere with pop allusions, not devoid of Dadaist references, reinvented in the key of nouveau réalisme, rather than a revisited de Chirico metaphysics, while an honest visitor would say that the exhibition is beautiful, too bad it is polluted!" Vittorio D’Augusta
