CONTEMPORARY ART
Cesare Catania catalogues
Not only descriptions and insights into the works, but also inspirations and feelings that led the Author to create contemporary works of art exactly as he conceived them.
Retrospectives and revisitations of the exhibitions and works of the Italian artist
“A contemporary art catalog is not only useful for art enthusiasts but is also and above all useful for those who write it… the artist can thus reflect on his own work and his own artistic poetics, not necessarily to change them but simply to savor them… Let’s say that writing a catalog forces the artist to see his work with an external eye, less emotionally involved in painting or sculpture and more attentive to the context in which he created the works”
(Cesare Catania)
Monaco 2017: "Art for All"
Although only a few pages long, the “Art for Everyone” catalogue, which accompanies the Cesare Catania Exhibition in Monte Carlo in 2017, is of fundamental importance. It was on that occasion that for the first time the artist expressed his idea of democratic art, an idea that a few years later would give life to his Embrace Project . An idea that makes him conceive of art not only as the end of his work but as a means to spread a message of positivity.
During the Monte Carlo event the artist presented a world premiere of his first work of art specifically created for people affected by Dalton syndrome. He dedicated careful research to studying color palettes in the context of color blindness, in order to offer a unique visual experience to those people. The protagonist work of art of this study is the suggestive sculpture entitled “The Mouth of Etna” (E Version). This work represents an extraordinary and focused interpretation, allowing viewers to admire and better understand the visual nuances experienced by color blind people. This sculpture embodies Cesare Catania’s passion for artistic research and his dedication to reaching a wide and diverse audience.
