Description
The sculpture "Ipotesi per sette teste I" by Lulù Nuti features an elongated, dark form with a textured surface that exhibits both rigidity and flow. Carved from wood, its organic shape suggests a fusion between natural and industrial, embodying Nuti's exploration of material contrasts. The piece evokes the sense of a raw, linear figure, possibly hinting at a tool or weapon. Nuti's work often challenges the viewer's perception of space and environment, questioning the balance between fragility and strength, and this piece is no exception in illustrating these dualities. ...
Born in 1988 in Levallois-Perret and a graduate of the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris (2012), Lulù Nuti lives and works in Rome. She has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions, both in galleries (GALERIE CHLOE SALGADO, Renata Fabbri, Galleria Alessandra Bonomo, Galleria Mazzoli, Postmasters, etc.) and institutions (Villa Medici, Musée des Beaux-Arts d’Angers, Fondazione Nicola Del Roscio, Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma, Museo Camusac, Collezione La Gaia, Galleria nazionale d'arte moderna e contemporanea, etc.). Lulù Nuti's multi-disciplinary approach is based on the use of materials as vectors of a different sensibility and language. Questioning our relationship with space, nature and the environment, her works reflect the feelings of powerlessness and responsibility of our time. In her quest for hybridity and contrasts, the artist combines plaster, concrete and metal with natural elements, forcing materials to coexist in an organic whole. In this way, her works contain multiple and contradictory interactions, between fragility and resistance, rupture and solidity, presence and effacement. ...
Inaugurated in October 2018, GALERIE CHLOE SALGADO is a contemporary art gallery in Paris representing emerging international artists. Working hand in hand with the artists, the gallery aims to break with the notion of a gallery as an elitist space proposing instead a place of support, discovery and sharing, while also encouraging new generations of collectors and art enthusiasts.
