The exhibition of work by Francesco Rapetti Mogol will be on show at the Lucca Center of Contemporary Art, from 23 November to 26 January.
With his work, the artist celebrates writing, that fundamental characteristic of human evolution.
However, he goes in search of a universal meaning of those characteristics, that belong to everyone, beyond linguistic barriers. It is in this way, with his installations made of symbols, scratches, quick brushstrokes, juxtaposed with a highly studied choice of colours and materials, that Rapetti Mogol succeeds in involving the viewer in a journey of memories, messages, emotions and intuitions familiar to the human spirit.
The exhibition is open everyday, except Monday. Hours: 10.00 – 19:00.
