Scenographer
Lello Esposito
lives and works between Naples and New York. His art focuses
on the city of Naples and its symbols - Pulcinella, the mask,
the egg, the skull, the volcano, the horse, San Gennaro and
the horn - in their various stages of metamorphosis.?? In
his larger-than-life canvases, he uses basic techniques of
abstract expressionism but incorporates into his composition
old and new symbols of the city, challenging the interpretation
of tradition. He considers himself primarily a sculptor and
his three dimensional work encompasses icons and stereotypes
of Italian popular culture with messages of life and happiness.
His installation "Innocente Italia" was exhibited
at Biennial of Venice 2011. His work is well known in Italy
and abroad; he has had more than 40 solo exhibitions over
30 years. |
