ROBERTO CIACCIO. Origin as a gift
MUSEC continues its investigation into the origins of creativity with a project dedicated to Roberto Ciaccio. The theme of origin runs through the entire trajectory of the Italian artist who died in 2014, in an ideal dialogue with the philosophical thought of Heidegger.
In Ciaccio, the investigation into the mystery of origin is linked to the exploration of the possibilities of monochrome art: a monochrome that is only apparent, given by the superimposition of continuous passages of colour, in which the figure is concealed and revealed beyond the image.
The exhibition, curated by Silvia Ciaccio with the collaboration of Nora Segreto, traces Roberto Ciaccio’s path in search of the origin of the work of art and does so with around forty works, created between 1990 and 2013.
