Mentre l'ago magnetico si orienta
e Oltremare verso mezzogiorno e verso mezzanotte appare

In this show at the gallery Tucci Russo Studio per l’Arte Contemporanea Giovanni Anselmo underscores
two aspects of his work in the pieces “Direzione [Direction]” and “Oltremare [Ultramarine]”.
Both are part of a single theme: the Energy that binds us to the world, known as the “rules” of our
existing which Anselmo emphasises in his artistic procedures.
