Sprovieri is proud to present Gesti Tipici and Monochromes, the first solo exhibition of Italian artist Sergio Lombardo in London.
About
Psychologist and artist, Lombardo is one of the main Italian artists who have renewed the European and International artistic language since the late fifties. The exhibition juxtaposes a selection of paintings from two early series - Monochromes (1958 -1961) and Gesti Tipici (1961-1963). The series are historically subsequent and, despite taking abstract versus figurative, have a strong common language. Employing an industrial medium like enamel and the use of black and white only, they convey the artist’s understanding of industrial and mass production aesthetics, which were generated by the fast economic growth of the time and the imagery created by black and white television.
