It offers to audience Luca Gilli\u2019s last and unprecedented photo series who has explored Cervaiole marble quarryof Henrauxwithhisattentiveandemotionallook.ItwasMichelangeloBuonarrotiin1517 whofirstunderstoodtheVeryHighMountain\u2019spower andbuilt thefirstpartoftheroadwhich would have later reached precious deposits of this mountain\u201d by appointing its fame .<\/p>\n Gilli has crossed and lived this place full of fascination and charm. In this background our photographer composed a visual tale where real and tangible dimensions of workplace ,that is harsh and hard to explain, dematerialize in a set of metaphysical shows where light carries a main role in defining another sense of the reality\u2019 same image.<\/p>\n Infact, one of the most important Emilian photographer\u2019s poetical features is that of acting , with a looking and a soul able to interpret specific appearance of spaces, environments, natural or artifical places . So he obtains imaginative visions which exceed truth owned by reality . He does not alter what is behind the lens and even without any \u201c artificial \u201c intervention on the image. The light clarifies, exalts, underlines, defines some details and take some other away, in a process of essential reduction which incites looking by making it in position to identify itself in a different dimension compared to usual perceptual habits. Gilli drives to a process of consciousness and of steady calling into question of what is perceived. While respecting with full attention truth\u2019 specific connotation in which he is working, he brings photography to overcome the simple descriptive element to deepen margings of imagination for free invocation which is dictated and driven by a new possible insight. Mountain\u2019s hurts, stone\u2019s rough surfaces, blocks\u2019 geometrical forms, rock\u2019s natural colours, machines\u2019 complicated forms, just mentioned or simply suggested human presence are visual references used by Gilli in these works. Between approaches and departures, between micro and macro visions, he makes the unexpected \u2013 as well as unforeseen \u2013 beauty of a light emerge. This<\/p>\n light illuminates the world to such an extent to sublimate it in the ephemeral transitoriness of a transparency. *\u201d<\/p>\n Colour lights up and seems to be reduced by intensifying in white\u2019s purit\u00e0 or to be sharpened in complicated spirals by improving itself in unusual shades which seem a painter\u2019s inventiveness : \u201c Gilli translates other depths of focus and obtains some interstitial areas of visible between here and elsewhere which find their own limit in his images which are so very strong in their further sense to seem in contrast with elegance of their human sensible passion.*\u201d<\/p>\n Mankind and trascendency are reading keys which help to understand \u2013 by raising some right questions \u2013 intellectual position of such a great visionary photographer like Luca Gilli, who \u201c draws from a \u2018 rough\u2019 place like the marble quarry and is able \u201cto sculpt\u201d the lovely surprise of another interpretation, of another sensation to let us see everything like has always been behind our eyes, without any deformity, and how it could be behind our imagination too(\u2026). His work\u2019s responsibility is never astonishment but always eye\u2019s guidance in reading the invisible, by finding a new conscience in the world\u2019s truth.*\u201d<\/p>\n The catalogue, with editor\u2019s transcriptions and works\u2019 images, will be presented in gallery on the opening day.<\/p>\n *Quote from critical text of Matteo Galbiati<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5790,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"default","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"default","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"categories":[90],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5788","mostra","type-mostra","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exhibitions"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mostra\/5788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mostra"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mostra"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5790"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5788"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5788"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kyroartgallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
