Outsider art stars in Time to reload group show in Turin, Italy

The Gliacrobati Gallery in Turin opens, from July 2 to September 19, 2020, the group exhibition Time To Reload, a review that will consist of a path marked by seven focuses dedicated to as many artists who represent the research humus that the Gliacrobati project cultivates along the furrow of transversality of languages and contents that press within the fragile boundaries of the multifaceted territories of theart of the so-called outsiders, that is, the artists who have not completed a traditional training path and who do not refer to codified languages (their art forms are also recognized under the label “art brut”).

The exhibition of the works of Mauro Rolle, Laura Fortin, Giacomo De Vito, Zaira D’Agata, Cosimo Cavallo, Noor Bahjat Al-Massri and Samaneh Atef will mark a restart in the gallery’s path aimed at deepening critical reflection on the worlds of theIrregular Art and the expressive content emerging from the works, while returning an exhibition project aimed at warding off the easy overlap between work and biography that not infrequently leads to distorted and unrepresentative readings of the artists afferent toArt Brut - Outsider Art.

Indeed, the long months of closure have forced a profound reconsideration of the gallery’s role as a carrier of content and expressive languages capable of generating engines of thought and providing tools for emotional reconnection with our contemporaneity. Starting from this need, the exhibition Time To Reload therefore represents an important opportunity for comparison between necessarily heterogeneous languages and paths, which intends to bring the public’s attention back to the more media-driven function of Art, placing at the center of the visual experience the truth of the work, inevitably intertwined with the Artist’s experience, but not reduced to it.

From the historiated envelopes of Mauro Rolle, to the visual narrative of Laura Fortin and Samaneh Atef, the exhibition will unravel between the expressionist portraits of Giacomo De Vito and the alien faces of Cosimo Cavallo, and then dematerialize in the graphic synthesis of Zaira D’Agata, until branching out into the swirling fragments embedded in the collages of Noor Bahjat Al-Massri.
