OBEY- THE ART OF SHEPARD FAIREY
VIII-X-MMXXIV
OBEY – “to obey,” in Italian “obbedire” – is the provocative word that Shepard Fairey chooses as his artistic name. OBEY is the term the street artist consistently uses throughout his artistic production, inviting the viewer to develop their own critical thinking and to disobey social conventions, when and if necessary. OBEY: The Art of Shepard Fairey is a comprehensive collection of Obey’s art, from the beginnings to his recent works. It serves as a point of reflection on the role of art in public debate, encouraging each visitor to question their own values and the transformative power of creativity.

Panorama Monferrato
On Sunday, September 8th, the traveling exhibition as part of the Panorama Monferrato event came to a close, during which our gallery participated with a work by Salvatore Scarpitta. The piece, titled “Drummer Brigade”, created in 1963 using oil on canvas, bandages, and straps (61 × 61 × 12 cm), was on display for all four days of the event at the historic Cottolengo of Camagna, located at via Matteotti 30.
Panorama Monferrato reached its fourth edition as part of the ITALICS project, showcasing a selection of 150 works, including sculpture, painting, video, and site-specific installations. Curated by Carlo Falciani, the exhibition took place in the picturesque towns of Camagna, Vignale, Montemagno, and Castagnole, creating an expansive and engaging artistic journey.

XXI-VIII-MMXXIV
The widespread exhibition “Panorama Monferrato” in 15 locations.
Dialogue as meaning (and art). The itinerary of “Italics” between roots, identity and the sacred.
15 venues, 4 countries, 63 artists, more than 200 works, including paintings, sculptures, photographs and installations. In one year, curator Carlo Falciani studied the territory, identified the countries, chose the locations, conveyed the meaning (to administrators). He explains, “Vignale was an indication. I chose the other villages around, as if it were a journey, an itinerary. For this I was inspired by Guazzo’s Civil Conversation. Those who come from outside will have to understand the roots. And those who welcome will have to understand the outsider.”
Dialogue as meaning. Between ancient and contemporary there are openings, not censures. The very anatomy of the exhibition, Falciani says, “is conceived as an itinerary, a dialogue between forms, identity and time.”
In Montemagno the venue is a castle and ossuary, In Camagna an abandoned cottolengo, in Castagnole it is a schoolteacher’s house. In Vignale, the venue is Palazzo Callori.
