no man's land 

first solo show in Napoli at Galleria Luigi Solito

Dec.2021 - Feb 2022

"In "No man's land", a meiosis of geometric perfection, we witness the unraveling of a selective aesthetic perspective enriched by a certain capacity for synthesis, free from any kind of frills, in which the works of art are irrefutably understood as the result of an eternal and harmonious aesthetic balance that takes into account the power of the images, the perfection of the shapes and the effectiveness of the colors. All this allows Baio to illuminate even the so-called "shadow areas"; in fact, all the paintings in the exhibition are metaphorically an exposition of the enigma, in which the "luminous darkness" paradoxically reveals the void, not to be mistakenly understood with a nihilistic tone, with the hope of going forward in order to absorb all the energy productive here present. On the other hand, in the words of Kazimir Malevič, art is a model of behavior and a project of existence, aimed at defining a zero degree of art and society in which in a "new way of feeling the world", strongly characterized by a pure sensitivity, however ontological, cryptic and probably utopian, silence reigns supreme and becomes a majestic and telluric creative force always ready to stimulate the emotional, cognitive and mental sphere of the bystander to whom, deliberately, the 'last word.
