A bi-personal exhibition by Bogdan Koshevoy and Bruno Fantelli, “Crash” is the second in a cycle of four exhibitions held during the 60th International Art Exhibition. The project, conceived by Mattia Sinigaglia, sees painting as the main protagonist and involves artists who studied at the Venice Academy of Fine Arts.
Although the works of Koshevoy and Fantelli are presented through different aesthetics and themes, they are united by a pervasive feeling of disquiet. On the one hand, in Bogdan Koshevoy’s industrial landscapes, now abandoned and disused, silence becomes a protagonist on a par with the melancholic architecture and enigmatic painted figures. On the other, Bruno Fantelli’s grotesque and monstrous crowds create an apparently chaotic narrative in which noise takes shape through material brushstrokes and the reuse of everyday objects that, assembled, come to life.
