The show

The MAN Museo d'Arte Provincia di Nuoro presents from Friday 9 November 2018 to Sunday 3 March 2019 “O Youth and Beauty!”, A collective exhibition that brings together the works of Anna Bjerger, Louis Fratino, Waldemar Zimbelmann, curated by Luigi Fassi.

"O Youth and Beauty!" takes its title from the homonymous short story by John Cheever, in which the American writer creates a representation of everyday life suspended between beauty and regret, and where the setting between the suburbs and suburban areas outlines the image of post-war American conformism. Similarly, the works of Anna Bjerger (Sweden 1973), Louis Fratino (United States 1994) and Waldemar Zimbelmann (Kazakhstan 1984), united by an intimate use of figurative painting, try to outline a portrait of the cultural identity of these authors through a layering of realistic and fictional elements. Fragments of everyday life, through the use of figurative painting, become the tool to give shape to one's own experience in which the tones of melancholy and a cultural identity that appears uncertain and elusive dominate.
