Moving Pol'Art

Verses in-shapes (homage to the poet) inaugurates the 1st Ed. at the Kunst Grenzen Gallery


VERSI IN-FORMA - omaggio al poeta (VERSES IN-SHAPES - homage to the poet-) opens the first edition of the Art and Poetry meeting with "the alchemist of the word" Angelo Magro.   Born from the will of the Kunst Grenzen-Frontier Art Association and its President, the artist Gentile Polo, to bring back the dialogue between the Arts and the artists, VERSI IN-FORMA - omaggio al poeta (VERSES IN-SHAPES - homage to the poet-) stands as an adrenaline springboard for all those who dream of discovering what emotional imprint is left by their poetic verses, and for artists who challenge themselves in the interpretation of another reality but through their own sensitivity and technique. If in times of a covid pandemic the perception of the other has stagnated, the event VERSI IN-FORMA - omaggio al poeta (VERSES IN-SHAPES - homage to the poet-) encourages the meeting of people in the beauty of both figurative and literary Arts and the Councilor Lorenzo Ossanna himself praised the initiative of the Kunst Grenzen-Frontier Art Association! (In the photo: from the left, the installation "Tree of Life" by Gentile Polo and Angelo Magro; presentation of the event by the poet Angelo Magro, the President of the Kunst Grenzen-Frontier Art Association Mr. Gentile Polo and the Provincial Councilor Lorenzo Ossanna.)   The 2021 edition of VERSI IN-FORMA - omaggio al poeta (VERSES IN-SHAPES - homage to the poet-) opens the initiative with the histrionic poet Angelo Magro, who enthusiastically dived into the initiative together with the visual artists who have ventured into the creative illustration of his verses. Among the artists who have bravely tried their hand we find the watercolorist Renata Di Palma, the master of mandalas Paola Gabrielli, the abstractionist Barbara Tisocco pupil of Albert Dedja, the painter Irina Riabinova from St. Petersburg, the master of art Quilt Margaret Nella, an impromptu of the graphics Lucia Martorelli of the Gentile Polo Art Studio and the Mexican painter Guadalupe Zepeda. And again: from Mezzolombardo the painter and luthier Paolo Frizzera, the Trieste painter Sandro Ramani, the webmaster Damiano Martorelli Ph.D., the artist of trees Claudio Botta, the master of verticality Claudio Cavalieri from Trento and the pointillist Paolo Ober, the "master of rags ”Piero Sani from Poggibonsi and the Rotalian artist of light Gentile Polo.   (In the photo: from the left, works by Renata Di Palma and the poet Mugdin Cehaic; on the right, Roza Yurchenko and Claudio Cavalieri in front of the work "The lost lighthaouse" by Sandro Ramani at the inauguration of the Versi in-forma event at the Gallery Kunst Grenzen-Frontier Art).   There are also two works on display which pay homage to two 20th century artists, Franco Fregonese and Giuseppe Gambino, belonging to the private collection of the associated Kunst Grenzen-Frontier Art Lucia Martorelli. The inauguration of the event on Friday 29 January summed up a very wide artistic offer linked by poetry which, like a modern Ariadne's thread, unravels and reunites the Arts in the Tree of Life. The Tree of Life develops in height in wood and rope starting from the "roots" of books up to a "crown" of parchments of poetic verses, indicating that a cultural background is needed to express poetry.
