Information

MANGROVEGALLERY is honored to present a solo project of Enzo Cucchi in Visiting Sector of Gallery Weekend Beijing 2023. The exhibition will present the artist’s latest body of whimsical paintings. As an essential and representative figure of Transavanguardia, Cucchi works like a nomad, a painter and a daydreaming maniac. Seletons along with birds, houses and cypresses, all spring up spontaneously from his mind, and make repeated appearances in Cucchi’s paintings, put together in surreal combinations. The message is direct and poignant, filled with poetic tension.This would not be, had it not been for the traditions of his hometown Marche, for the influence that nature, religion, poetry, and art have made on Cucchi’s subconsciousness. The paintings on exhibition this time again apply multiple media, like he always does. They use those artistic media to their best advantage, while freeing the image from the restrictions of the two-dimensional canvas. Cucchi transforms things in themselves through a complex process, and recreates them, mixed with snippets of real life experiences. This is his way of expression, bold and powerful. The open-ended visual expressions transcend language, and touch off new ideas in their interactions with the audience.
