Una curatela di Flavio Scaloni, Gallery Manager presso Galerie Lo Scalo – Green, a colour deeply intertwined with nature, holds a complex and versatile place in art. It's most commonly associated with life, growth, and renewal, evoking feelings of tranquillity and harmony. Yet, green can also symbolize jealousy, illness, or the supernatural, tapping into a sense of eerie or mystical presence. This dual nature makes it a powerful colour for artists to explore, reflecting our intricate relationship with the natural world and our inner selves.
In contemporary art, green has been used to powerful effect. The American painter Ellsworth Kelly, a master of colour field painting, used monumental, vibrant blocks of green to create works that explore pure form and colour, as seen in his sculpture 'Green Blue' (1968). The photographer Stephen Shore often captures the mundane beauty of American life in works that are subtly saturated with green, from roadside foliage to worn-out signage. His photograph, 'U.S. 10, Missoula, Montana, August 23, 1980', uses the green of a motel sign to anchor the image and convey a sense of place. This collection celebrates the profound and varied artistic interpretations of the colour green.
