From flyovers, from works on urban walls to canvases and more. A surprise exhibition for Manu Invisible, the one inaugurated today at the Key Gallery in Milan (until 12 December).
"Spotlight - An illusion called light" is the second exhibition, after four years, that the Milanese gallery dedicates to the research of the masked Sardinian artist, who started with small canvases, before landing on the clandestinity of street art, even if it is increasingly requested for private interventions or in public spaces, such as schools, universities, family homes, as has recently happened for the Help center for people in difficulty set up at the Cagliari railway station.
Curated by Massimo Gianquitto, the one-man show presents twenty works on canvas, always made with sprays and enamels, and a site-specific intervention on the theme of light and illusion, with a more introspective and psychological reading, also adapted to the small dimensions, which however contain keywords, as do his large wall works.
Unsettling but not too much, to see canvases ranging from small format to one and a half meters, because Manu Invisible is capable of condensing his messages even in different formats, and on different supports. Artist capable of communicating, if from the nagging autograph on all the streets of the island it has become the case of international street art.
