UMBERTO CICERI 

Il mio lavoro è progettare schemi di interferenza visibili dal sistema nervoso, progettare soglie percettive.
My work entails designing interference schemes visible to the nervous system – drawing perceptual thresholds.

Born in Lombardy, lives and works in Barcelona. Active in the art world since 2007, he cultivares his creativity around textures and textiles, developin his reseach on neurophysiology of human eye and colours atomic phisics. Ciceri's art studies embrace sections with different aesthetic content and methods of representation. One has social purposes and uses sound installations, video projections and performance about aesthetic ambiguity .
The other is based on neuroaesthetic studies, a personal evolution of a technique that involves the use of special lenses, which encourages to move around in front of the work in a ritual perceptive of temporal coincidence,
and this is called Hypertrait.

"LA FORMA DEL RITMO"

MAGA MUSEUM

08 0ttobre .04 Dicembre 2022.                 

Accanto al riallestimento della collezione, il MA*GA presenta la mostra personale di

Umberto Ciceri. Il progetto espositivo si concentra sulla produzione astratto – analitica dell’artista,

che prende le mosse dal Manifesto Realista (1920) di Naum Gabo e approfondisce le

sperimentazioni cromatiche caratterizzate dall’uso autoriale e innovativo di superfici lenticolari. Scrive l’artista in merito alla mostra: “i visitatori si muoveranno continuamente, produrranno da soli le associazioni necessarie, troveranno il loro ritmo: gli articoli che si susseguono, i corpi che si agitano, i canti regolati da codici geometrici, i colori sulla soglia dell’invisibilità, le opere intarsiate composte secondo regole contrappuntistiche, tutto entrerà in risonanza, proponendo un atmosfera percettiva contemplativa e sospesa”.
