The exhibition will explore the ways in which painting can occupy three-dimensional space by showcasing recent as well as historical works by the artist, with whom the gallery has worked since its inception in 2012. A selection of Castellani’s large-scale shaped relief canvases Superfici Bianca (White Surfaces) will be on view, with examples spanning the artist’s entire career. These will be juxtaposed with recent angular metallic paintings titled Biangolare cromata (Bi-angular Chrome) and Angolare cromata (Angular Chrome), the latter of which Castellani installs in corners. The chromata paintings and the iconic white shaped surfaces of the Superfici Bianca will be complemented in the exhibition by the never-before exhibited recent sculpture Spartito, in which Castellani references a seminal work made in 1969 by bolting hundreds of sheets of paper together with nails, creating a biomorphic minimalist form.
