It Rests by Changing

Raffaella Cortese is pleased to present the group exhibition It rests by changing. Curated by Simone Menegoi, the exhibition gathers four great Post-War European artists, Rolf Julius, Jiří Kovanda, Roman Signer and Franz Erhard Walther, starting from their relationship with sculpture. Sculpture is in fact for all the four artists an essential reference, and at the same time in their works it is brought into question through factors such as time, movement and action. The materials used by the artists are ephemeral or lacking in shape: they are the starting or arrival point for performances and physical actions, and they convert into vectors and forces. Saying this, we could say that these four paths towards sculpture are as well (and at the same extent) ways of escaping from it.
