Valerio Giacone - UNO

Inauguration Saturday 19 September 11.00-22.00

On Saturday 19th September, the FABER art gallery will host the UNO exhibition by Valerio Giacone.

Giacone investigates the value and sacredness of man, making him an icon of himself as much

bearer of the divine.

The artist's newfound pictorial approach and his propensity for investigation

the interior is the essence of this profound and multifaceted poetic impulse.

The exhibition is conceived as a visionary journey into the self; the alternation of techniques and

different languages ​​punctuate the set-up rhythm of an exhibition itinerary conceived as a

a single body, in which, however, the individual moments are distinct.

In this emotional tale of memories of life, the various ones are collected and exploded

experimental phases crossed by the artist during the last years of research:

from the love for the sign to the studies on chromatism, from the taste for the transformation of

matter up to the current inclination towards installation.

The opening words of the exhibition can be found in the vast collection of works published in the book Non ho

never stopped dreaming of the sea, published by Andante; images and thoughts developed by Valerio

during the recent period of global confinement.

The UNO exhibition is the final phase of a very complex project by Valerio

Giacone, which developed during the residential experiences lived at the hermitage of

Santa Maria delle Grazie, on Mount Soratte, as part of the Tracce review and at

the Mole Vanvitelliana Museum in Ancona.
