Veronica Santi curator for Spazio 522 Gallery is proud to present Snowing Styrofoam, an exhibition featuring Italian artists Nick Petruccelli and Verdiana Patacchini, both in their debut in the New York art scene. Reading the landscape of cities and embroidering new textures of world, Nick Petruccelli makes its paintings glueing industrial scraps and leather mixed with gloss colors, as if the surface of canvas was a vault of the heaven where other patchwork realities are possible. Verdiana Patacchini, indeed, read impossible textures from the styrofoam, clearing abstract forms from the material. Her sculptures seem fallen from the sky as lightweight, sophisticate meteorites.Snowing Styrofoam is the first exhibition of the cycle “Italian Wave” showing the best of Italian artists New York-based. Celebrating 2013 – Year of Italian culture in United States, from May to December “Italian Wave” will take place at Spazio 552 Gallery of Antonio Soddu .
