Italian Fabrizio Corneli is a true master of light and shadow. At night, in the absence of lighting, or in the daytime, in cloudy weather, his works may well be mistaken for shapeless metal objects, it is not clear why they are attached to the wall. But as soon as a source of light appears - no matter whether natural or artificial - the images conceived by the author begin to appear along with it.
For the last two decades, Fabrizio Corneli has devoted himself to the development and improvement of his style, learning to cast metal parts and expose the light in such a way that the shadows on the wall form the desired image. “Corneli's artistic research is a synthesis of geometric calculations and philosophical reflections on perception, elaborated in detail with the tools and aesthetic language of modernity. Taking as a basis the principles of anamorphosis, transformation and deformation that appeared in the Renaissance and improved in Mannerism, the author translates them into the language of the twenty-first century. There is no longer a need for a certain point of view from which viewers can see the image: it all depends on a correctly exposed light source,”the official says. website the author.
“Light is the energy that creates forms,” says Fabrizio. What is especially interesting is that when creating his installations, the author is not limited only to interior rooms, where, in general, it is not so difficult for a knowledgeable person to correctly expose the light. But Corneli's works also appear on the facades of buildings, falling into dependence on the sun's rays. And the most interesting thing is that one and the same installation can look completely different in the morning and in the evening, depending on what kind of light is directed at it - natural or artificial.
Fabrizio Corneli was born in Italy in 1958 and lives and works in Florence. Over the past ten years, his work could be seen both at exhibitions and simply on the facades of houses in Brussels, Rome, Barcelona, Berlin, Paris and other cities.
