Chiara Dynys – Luce negli occhi / Light to the Eyes

Light that modifies reality and perception: this is the theme of the exhibition of CHIARA DYNYS – Luce negli occhi/Light to the eyes promoted by the Culture Department of the Council of Milan in the evocative setting of the Rotonda of Via Besana in Milan, from 31 March to 10 June 2007. The exhibition curated by Maurizio Sciaccaluga and Steve Della Casa presents meaningful works from the artistic career of Chiara Dynys, whose works make one reflect on the concept of space meant as geometrical, psychological and historical element. In all the installations light and colour are the main elements and are essential in order to perceive the environment, thought by the artist more as a mental than physical zone.
Sixteen installations created from the ’90s to today (among them 5 works created specifically for this exhibition) form a path inside the Rotonda, establishing a sequence of environments which bring the visitor closer to a sensory and mind dimension.
