Description: Firenze: Giunti, 2013. 28cm., pbk., 160pp. illus. Italian-English text. Exhibition held at Palazzo delle Esposizioni, Roma. Summary: It will be possible to admire thirty-six works by Roberto Ferri a figurative, Caravaggesque - inspired contemporary artist, twenty-four paintings on canvas, as well as twelve drawings and preparatory sketches executed with several techniques. The sublime art of Roberto Ferri seems to be timeless, his paintings transcend space. They take the viewer to a higher dimension and then throw him back to Earth through the flesh of women and men transfixed by light. Ferri pursues a continuous discovery in his paintings which are surrounded by a halo of antiquity but at the same time enhanced with contemporary techniques, where dreams become a material reality ready to astonish the spectator. It is precisely matter one of the predominant elements in his works, but bodies prevail even more; pictured with extreme perfection, the viewer suffers and rejoices looking at the surrealistic deformities, the lacerated faces, at those hands which passionately find their way into the flesh of others, and angels, at times doomed and lost or looking for freedom.
