Francesco Gennari: Vorrei essere me stesso, ma solo alla luce del Sole

“Vorrei essere me stesso, ma solo alla luce del Sole” is Francesco Gennari’ second solo exhibition at Antoine Levi, Paris.

“I was in Paris, under a concrete look alike sky, a black line passing through my mood, I was drawing… After a while the sky opened up and became azure, my temper suddenly changed, I was feeling myself, but immediately after the sun was starting to fade and the sky turned into purplish pink…”
