Art exhibition

“Everything is so damned interrelated…and you are here”, Massimo Nota
Private View 26th April, 6-9pm
curated by Alessandra Migani

Massimo Nota, originally from Rome, is a prolific artist/illustrator whose world is imbued with visions.

Nota’s creative act reveals an instinctive gesture that he follows spontaneously on the surface. Here words and images overlap in layers. Each artwork, either on canvas, brown paper, cardboard, iron plates or wood, (re)presents an amazing arrangement of drawings, collages, acrylic paint, watercolour and paper sheets.

Looking deeply into the surface, we can distinguish original drawings, recycled papers, old book sheets found in flea markets and old dusty archives. Nota magically blows the dust off them. Once they were lost and forgotten and now they are placed in a new space, with a new function.
