A curation by Flavio Scaloni, Gallery Manager at Galerie Lo Scalo - The eye is a primal source of artistic fascination, often described as the window to the soul and the primary site of human empathy. Symbolically, it represents perception, truth, and the complex power dynamics of the gaze. Psychologically, the eye evokes feelings of being watched, surveillance, or deep emotional vulnerability. Since 1950, artists have moved beyond mere liking to explore the gaze as a conceptual force. Louise Bourgeois captured the unsettling nature of observation in her sculpture "The Eyes" (1982), while Yayoi Kusama employs the motif as an obsessive, repetitive element in her "My Eternal Soul" series, symbolizing a cosmic connection. In the realm of photography, Steve McCurry's world-famous portrait "Afghan Girl" (1984) remains the definitive study of expressive eyes, using a singular gaze to communicate universal resilience and trauma. This selection highlights the eye as a bridge between internal emotion and external reality, proving its enduring power as a muse.
