At the de' Bonis Gallery in Reggio Emilia, Fausto Pirandello's monographic exhibition "Poetry of Raw Reality" can be visited from December 18, 2021 to January 29, 2022.

The de’ Bonis Gallery in Reggio Emilia is hosting from December 18, 2021 to January 29, 2022 the exhibition Poetry of Raw Reality by Fausto Pirandello (Rome 1899-1975), an exponent of the Roman School. The exhibition includes more than twenty works intended to illustrate almost the entire artistic journey of the son of the famous writer and Nobel laureate Luigi Pirandello: the Tetti di Roma; the Nature Morte, compositions of everyday objects juxtaposed for no apparent reason other than the observation of everyday life; the Bagnanti, a subject that has always winked at geometrism but which, starting in the early 1950s, increasingly abstracts the forms until it leaves room only for constructive lines.

Pirandello’s painting is influenced by the German Expressionists; his color palette is characterized by pastel and dusty tones. The artist’s vision of reality is sometimes dramatically tragic, sometimes ironic and playful, always accompanied by paradox, a constant element of his pictorial language between rigor and freedom, between stark realism and symbolism.

With this monographic exhibition, the Gallery presents a new collection of works, the result of research and study work on the artist.
