Following the successful exhibition Grazia Varisco: Filo Rosso 1960/2015 at Cortesi Gallery Lugano in Switzerland, the gallery is now pleased to introduce Varisco's body of work to the London audience. The London exhibition will give the visitors a unique opportunity to experience a comprehensive overview of Varisco's research, with works spanning from the early '60s to recent years. From Tavole Magnetiche (Magnetic Boards, 195961), where magnetic elements based on elementary dialectic polarities like order/disorder, empty/full, open/closed, and symmetrical/asymmetrical, are arranged on metal surfaces and can be moved around, to Schemi luminosi variabili (Variable Luminous Schemes, 1962-64), a series of kinetic objects that use the rotary motion of the overlapping screens is used to produce continuous variations and repetitions, capturing the unconditional attention of the viewer. The show will also include more recent works, such as Quadri Comunicanti in acciaio (Communicating Paintings in Steel, 2011). Formally minimal, the works nevertheless manage to dominate the surface on which they appear, simultaneously providing a glimpse of continuity and instability.
