Enzo Fiore: Natura ed Inclusioni, Lugano

Contini Art Gallery presents a solo exhibition of artist Enzo Fiore entitled “Nature and Inclusions”, at the Aimo Room Concept Store in Lugano, Switzerland.

The exhibition exposes a vast selection of works that reiterate Enzo Fiore’s artistic evolution, presenting his famous portraits of celebrities and landscapes alongside his most recent series, Inclusions.

Throughout the work of Enzo Fiore, nature is the protagonist and is central to his art; and it is this constant dialogue, which has become the very essence of Fiore’s aesthetic. Natural elements such as branches, roots, leaves, earth, moss and insects have always been Fiore’s artistic instruments together creating an organic, biological world whereby each subject emerges from nature.

The exhibition celebrates the artist’s highly acclaimed and prolific career, highlighting the pivotal changes and significant themes, which albeit perpetually evolving, are what define Fiore’s oeuvre as an artist. The subject matter derives from our collective consciousness, manifesting in Fiore’s images of landmarks, landscapes or natural environments, reinterpreted through the artist’s unique language in which organic material is the syntax. The exhibition also presents Fiore’s influential portraits of prominent figures from the world of art, history, music and cinema; Namely, Marilyn Monroe, Freddie Mercury; Madonna, J. F. Kennedy among many others. Collectively these portraits appear like an archive of celebrated icons of our time.
