A series of works are realized on the occasion of Matisse exposition at Palazzo dei Diamanti: a dialogue between Maurizio Camerani’s 1980s-90s videos and Matisse’s paintings. These are polished drawings on paper made by pencil, through which the notable video artist recreates evocative blurring effects, turning the subjects of portraits into rarefied shadows. The intimate and domestic aspect of their works connects the two artists in the same daily life poetry, and creates a dialogue through time where the drawn shadows become solidified energies that want to define their own presence and passage.
