Stefano Scheda: Nudo, Mani in alto!
Galleria Fumagalli presents the first solo show at the gallery by Stefano Scheda with the exhibition “Nudo, mani in alto! Naked, hands up!”.
“Nudo, mani in alto! Naked, hands up!” is an invitation to reflect on concept of nudity, from art history to social networks, where new works of the artist are presented along with historical pieces. Stefano Scheda’s work is often characterized by the use of the nude, meant not in an erotic or voyeuristic turn but in its social outcomes. The title of the exhibition deliberately refers to a body exposed to weaknesses and life complications. On display the video Meteo (2004), presented for the first time at the ZKM Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe in 2006
«We are all bare in physical and spiritual vulnerability, but not certain of a brotherhood», explains the Artist.
A publication with texts by selected authors including Angela Madesani (art historian and curator), Matteo Bonazzi (philosopher and psychoanalyst) and Cristiano Seganfreddo will accompany the exhibition.
