Eliseo Mattiacci: Predisporsi a un capolavoro cosmico-astronomico

Introduction

The triptych Predisporsi a un capolavoro cosmico-astronomico by Eliseo Mattiacci inspires a selection of works on paper collected to represent the genesis of a fundamental moment in the creative season of the Cagli-born artist. Since the first 1980s, Mattiacci’s language has aimed at surveying the themes linked with the urge to analyze the relationship between visible and invisible physical energies, like the force of gravity or the magnetic attraction of large magnets, linked with the constant tension useful to take weight away from heavy matters. The works of graphite or crayon on paper represent the moment when these meditations merge into shapes turning into sculptures or gigantic works.
