On the occasion of the group show Glitch (November 8th, 2023 – January 27th, 2024), curated by Chiara Bertola and Davide Ferri, BUILDING hosts a guided tour of the exhibition with the curator Davide Ferri.

Focused on contemporary painting, the exhibition presents a selection of twenty-four paintings by ten Italian and international artists from different generations: Simon Callery (London, 1960), Angela de la Cruz (A Coruña, 1965), Peggy Franck (Zevenaar, 1978), Pinot Gallizio (Alba, 1902-1964), Mary Heilmann (San Francisco, 1940), Ilya (Dnepropetrovsk,1933- 2023) & Emilia (Dnepropetrovsk 1945) Kabakov, Andrea Kvas (Trieste, 1986), Maria Morganti (Milan, 1965), Farid Rahimi (Lausanne, 1974), Alejandra Seeber (Beunos Aires, 1969).

Davide Ferri will guide the visitors along the exhibition itinerary on the gallery’s three floors, where an idea of “mere painting”- in the sense of  a “low,” “material” kind of painting – unfolds. It aims to restore the centrality of the vital energy of painting, understood as an everyday, artisanal gesture. Therefore, the focus is aimed at a kind of painting whose truth does not lie in representation and its organicity, but rather in an the idea of the a painted image that negotiates with different media and formats, embracing its presence and material ramifications.
