As part of the new cultural program #vivilitaliainindonesia<\/i>, following the health emergency from Covid-19, the Italian Cultural Institute of Jakarta on Saturday, June 20 presents Points of intersection<\/i>, a webinar dedicated to the Italian artist Filippo Sciascia and his works. A conversation about science, anthropology, and culture through Sciascia’s artistic creations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Filippo Sciascia, born in Sicily in Palma di Montichiaro, moved to the United States at a noticeably young age, before returning to Italy, to Florence, to continue his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, where he graduated. He currently lives and works in Bali, Indonesia.<\/p>\n

In 2011 he exhibited at the Italian Pavilion in the Artisti Italiani nel Mondo<\/i> (Italian Artists in the World) section of the 54th Biennale of Venice. In 2018 he participated in the group exhibition Il Grande Arcipelago<\/i>, organised by the Pistoletto Foundation in Bali. Finally, in 2019 he represented Italian contemporary art during the Giornata del Contemporaneo (The Contemporary Day) with the exhibition Primitive mornings<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Sciascia’s works explore the relationship between art and science and the mysteries of the universe through painting techniques and the original use of materials, from metal to natural pigments.<\/p>\n

From Lux Lumina<\/i> to Primitive mornings<\/i> the predominant element is always light. “Light the base of everything, the light that illuminates represents the desire for balance in the world, it is the symbol of a discovery. In my paintings the anxiety to discover has pervaded all my work,” explains Sciascia.<\/p>\n

Speakers: Maria Battaglia, Director of the IIC in Jakarta, Jennyfer Houdrouge, curator and writer, David Yeo, biomedical scientist, and the Yeo Workshop<\/i> Contemporary Art Gallery in Singapore.<\/p>\n
