It will open Friday, May 16th at 19:00 at the Naples Area Eventitre the solo exhibition of James Montanaro "In the Middle of Nowhere " by the Gallery of meeting Rob Shazar , the new project by artist torrese , nearly six years after the previous lava wall , shows a surprising news : the absence of any trace of the human figure. It is alleged and evoked in the 50 works in the exhibition: abandoned industrial buildings , wrecks social , economic waste , lost in a white desert and lonely. In the paper critical of Gloria Gradassi she tells us: " This shift has had its double in the evolution of color, who now has a whole new center of gravity : the new media white was substituted for black funds and the paint is like inverted , from negative to positive , the touch is no longer a graffiti but a haze chiaroscuro , colors, lower body injury in volumes harmonic dynamism finally , there is the repetition but in the form and brushstroke . Gestures, subsided into the new structures , feeds a composition less nervous , as if the expressive urgency , and that sense epic that accompanied the simplified human figure , had turned into something much more content and dense. Montanaro in these recent works using the acid sometimes with the delicacy of a watercolor , departing from the gestures of his previous electrical work . Industrial buildings are geometric shapes through which the artist probe all the different shades of color and depth of his brushwork . By comparison with the analytical descriptiveness of a genre that has given so much in the picture , these peripheries appear as unconscious fantasies , as well as pictorial visions into reality is completely transformed and reinterpreted according to a code able to reinvent and create a visual intrigue that has the taste of the new and mostly leading the indelible mark of James Montanaro .
