Alessandro Kokocinski Trasfigurazione
From February 14, Alessandro Kokocinski is showing a vast collection of paintings, drawings, and sculptures at the Galleria Italarte (Largo del Pallaro, 11), and, contemporaneously, at the Galleria L’Indicatore (Via delle Colonnette, 20) in Rome.
Entitled Trasfigurazione (Transfiguration), the exhibition explores an art that encapsulates the rediscovery and “up-to-date” nature of the figure in contemporary painting. With a strong, primeval energy, the works in the show convey the expressive value and inescapable social and psychological implications inherent in the representation of the human figure.
It is Kokocinski’s paintings that best display his extraordinarily suggestive technique; his figures articulate an extremely modern language, in which universal tension and contingent malaise are dialectical bedfellows. His works do not disregard human emotion, returning instead to a truly authentic depth of sentiment that, although clearly circumstantiated, is poetically located in a suspended, timeless dimension.
Another opportunity to understand Kokocinski’s versatility as an artist is presented by a challenging stage set, which he created for the theatrical piece Mese Mariano by Salvatore Di Giacomo (directed and interpreted by Lina Sastri).
Born in Porto Recanati in 1948, Alessandro Kokocinski spent many years in South America (Brazil and Argentina). In addition to his numerous shows in private galleries around the world, he has recently been the subject of important public exhibitions, including ones in Hong Kong, Buenos Aires (at the National Museum of Fine Arts), Naples (at the Institute of Philosophical Studies), and in Rome (at the Italian-Latin American Institute).
