The works of my Italian artist friend Gaetano Fiore are going to be on show as part of the Post-Avanguardia exhibition which opens a little latter this month in the Castello Estense in Ferrara, I’m pleased to announce.
Gaetano Fiore
Running from the 22nd to 30th May, 2010, the exhibition is open from 10 am to 5:30 pm, and entry is at the bargain price of free. Gaetano Fiore’s paintings will be featured as part of the ‘Attraversamenti’ – ‘Crossings’ – selection, along with the work of Valentina Carrera, Giuseppe Orsenigo, Brigitta Rossetti, Virgilio Patarini, and Edoardo Stramacchia.
It’s really good to see that Gaetano is starting to get some recognition. Here is some more on Gaetano Fiore, along with examples of his work: Meeting Gaetano Fiore
As part of the forthcoming Post-Avanguardia show, there will be another four groups of work on display, featuring the work of a variety of artists, most of whom are Italian.
