EUROPEAN SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS I ARIA ART GALLERY
Florence (Italy)
Kiril Cholakov’s works are presented in Florence as part of the exhibition Perditiva
The European School of Economics is pleased to present the collective exhibition “Perditiva” in collaboration with the Biennial of Design and the Municipality of Rimini. The press conference will take place on December 9, 2016 at 12:00 at the headquarters of the School in Borgo SS Apostoli 19 in Florence. On December 10, the exhibition will be open to the public in Piazza del Limbo, 1, starting at 18:30.
The exhibition is the second of a five-event series, in which the two cities of Rimini and Florence are united in the name of art, in the city recognized as the one “which enshrined the primacy of drawing in the arts”, to echo the words by Massimo Pulini, Councilor of Arts and Art Director of the Design Biennale of Rimini. An association also grounded in the nature of design as a bridge between the visible and the invisible, between thought and work, which aligns well with the motto of ESE.
After “Linfatica”, which was on display from 22 October to 1 December at the Aria Art Gallery in Florence, the collaboration is renewed with “Perditiva”. Each title is a word that evokes images and tells the story of the connection between the trait and the language. “Perditiva” is an exhibition where the spectator’s eye meets surfaces that ultimately become blurred in the search for the horizon. This unclarified expression converys a lack of clarity that encompasses the most primitive ambiguity – the distinction between what comes to us and what is within us, between the impression and the expression, between what reaches the retina and what develops from the mind to the eye. One must be able to discern where the path connecting sensory perception to the vast machinery of thought intersects, in order to recognize where the image ceases and the doubt begins.
In search of these answers, the works of three artists who participated in the Biennial of Drawing are explored, as their works capture the distinctive, vibrational quality of the trait: Serse, Kiril Cholakov and Giovanni Blanco.
