Ariana Papademetropoulos: Ringing Saturn


  • Massimodecarlo Viale Lombardia, 17 (map)

The title of the exhibition riffs on Margot and Rudolf Wittkower’s “Born under Saturn: The Character and Conduct of Artists” (1963) a well-known dissertation on the embrace of eccentricity that came to distinguish the skilled artisan, who worked under the sign of light-fingered Mercury, from the artists identified with the mysterious and brooding Saturn. Papademetropoulos plays with this distinction to create traditional paintings in the manner of Old Masters that explore the otherworldliness that marks outer edges of our contemporary society’s fascination with the metaphysics and astrology.
