It will be open from 26 September to 10 November, at the Giò Marconi Gallery in Milan, Periodthe exhibition dedicated to the painter's recent works on ceramics Allison Katz.
The Canadian artist, who has been living in London for years, inaugurates his second solo exhibition in the rooms of the gallery located at 20 Via Tadino: a large collection of ceramic plates, created over the last eight years, painted and glazed, which repropose subjects from his vast repertoire of images, paintings and posters.
Allison Katz, born in 1980, is an internationally renowned painter whose works have been shown in numerous exhibitions in Italy and abroad.
Last year, she was selected for the group show 'That Continuous Thing: Artists and the Ceramics Studio, 1920-Today' at the Tate St. Ives.
The artist offers us with Period a journey between expressive languages personal and contemporariesrecreated with a symbolic alphabet that ranges from playfulness to irony, with a Brit-pop touch that is always captivating and original, so much so that Allison Katz's painting has been described as "joie d'esprit" linked to her painting.
Strawberries, monkeys, silhouettes, clocks animate his ceramics with fantastic stories, colourful universes that seem to belong to distant worlds, the result of fervent and sophisticated creativity.
The artist had already started experimenting with ceramics in 2011, intensifying this activity in the summer of 2017, following a residency period spent at the Mahler-LeWitt Foundation in Spoleto.
