Continues with great success Until 9 November 2025 to the Civic museums of Palazzo Buonaccorsi in Macerata The important staff “Renata Boero. Teleri” with monumental works wall made between the mid -seventies and the early years
Two-thousand.
Renata Boerocounted among the prominent female figures in the art of the second half of the twentieth century, has been active on the international scene since the sixties. One of the prerogatives of many of his works, including those who admire on display, is the absence of fixed supports that support the canvases: the result is a symbiotic fusion Among the signs that outline the chromatic story put in place by the artist and the surrounding environment, in which natural and anthropic elements mix Without reservations. This feature allows you to come into direct contact and without filters with the nucleus of its work, where primordial issues stand out linked to the concepts of Time and memory.
Organized and promoted by Municipality of Macerata, fromAcademy Fine Arts, fromUniversity of Macerata, The exhibition is sponsored by Province of Macerata with the Marche Culture Foundation And it illustrates the artist’s significant path.
Renata Boero’s poetics finds the perfect expression in large format works, characterized by Tincture reticulates – obtained from the boiling and the spoken of roots, herbs, tubers and other natural elements – in which nature and spirituality are protagonists of the creative process.
These aspects find themselves in the large exposed canvases including some Chromogramsin CTò-Veno-Grafie Instead, described by more clear and more delicate shades, outcome of the stay in the ground for long periods, as in the
composition Flowering 1 (1990-2000).
In Yellow chromogram (1970-1975), The horizontal composition is divided into four parallel bands of irregular rectangles whose colors vary from intense and material yellow, in the upper part, to deeper shade in the second, warmer and balanced in the third. This work suggests a Slow and stratified transformation process.
Such a subdivision of the spaces is also found in Chromogram (1975-1980) in which a grid marked by bands of dark and intense colors are crossed by shades of greenery, red and yellow the pigments, which let it emerge the grain of the canvas and the traces of the time, They are often absorbed in the fabric or applied in a more transparent way.
It has warmer tones CRO
Moogram earth (1980-1990), whose surface is more tessed by natural pigments which, in addition to recalling oxidation and decomposition processes, evoke one strong connection with the subject and with the life cycle.
With its square shape, Ctò-Veno-Grafia “Landscape in the squad” (2000s) creates a composition with a strong balance, in which shades of rose and dark glazes predominate, with traces that seem absorbed over time. In the diptych CTò-Veno-Grafia, Also made in the 2000s, Tele Tele shows with a grid of bent rectangles and visible plots terrose, pink, purple chromies, with interventions of black and brown including some very dense and three -dimensional areas. By linking art, body and time in an alchemical process, the work recalls organic and natural processes.
Flowering 1 (1990-2000), allusive to cyclicality, growth and transformationpresents itself as a mosaic That evokes natural elements Like bark, flowers and earth. The shades are
or vibrant and intense, with warm colors, interspersed with blue and violet tips. The composition seems to expand along a central axis, as if the canvas had absorbed nature itself, and the wavy surface, which rests directly on the floor, increases the sense of contact with the space and the observer.
It is clear from the works of Renata Boero the need for deepening and understanding of natural processes in relation to human action and the idea of overcoming art as a representation of reality. In fact, it directs its stylistic figure towards the interpretation of painting as an artistic gesture that does not portrays nature, but conceptually reconstructs it.
Trinking inspiration from this exhibition, the school of higher studies Giacomo Leopardi organizes – as part of the international network “Educating Future Citizen” – a school of Higher Education, which provides for the presence of the artist.
Concludes the exhibition itinerary a video which represents a sort of archive of gestures made in making painting. The exhibition is accompanied by a catalog Published by Sagep Editori with the images of the works on display and texts of Vittoria Coen, Gianni Dessì and Giuliana Pascucci.
