Sublime Dolls<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/span> Agreste,<\/span> post-<\/span>surrealist<\/span> artist<\/span>,<\/span> much<\/span> appreciated<\/span> abroad<\/span> for her VideoArt<\/span>,<\/span> is presenting <\/span>for the<\/span> exhibition “<\/span>The sharing<\/span> of difference”<\/span> four<\/span> paintings<\/span> that dwell on the subtle dreamy line<\/span> that separates life and death.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her figures<\/span><\/span> have no<\/span> peace<\/span>,<\/span> and are representative<\/span> of the uncertainty and<\/span> anxiety<\/span> of the contemporary human soul<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fantastic<\/span>,<\/span> upset<\/span>, and <\/span>restless<\/span> figures <\/span>are here<\/span> to remind us that<\/span> the soul<\/span> can be made up of<\/span> many<\/span> colours,<\/span> even the most<\/span> obscure.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barbara’s work<\/span> is an<\/span> essential tile<\/span> of life<\/span>, <\/span>her <\/span>sublime <\/span><\/span>dolls<\/span><\/span> shed light<\/span><\/span> on the fake world and fake bodies that<\/span> surround us<\/span> every day,<\/span> and<\/span> on the irremediable<\/span> suffering that<\/span> all this brings along.<\/span><\/span>

Bambole sublimi<\/a> e finzione<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Barbara Agreste artista post-surrealista, apprezzata molto all’estero nella VideoArte, e’ presente nella mostra “La condivisione della differenza” con opere pittoriche tese a tracciare il confine onirico e indistinto tra la vita e la morte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le sue figure non hanno pace, sono rappresentative dell’incertezza e dell’inquietudine dell’animo umano nel nostro tempo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Figure fantastiche, sconvolte, irrequiete sono qui a ricordarci che l’anima puo’ assumere ogni colore, anche quelli piu’ oscuri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L’opera di Barbara come tassello essenziale della vita, porta alla luce<\/a> nelle sue bambole sublimi la finzione che ogni giorno ci circonda e l’irrimediabile sofferenza che ne proviene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
