SESSIONS is both a set of exhibitions and a series of events which intention isn’t connected to a defined curatorial theme but rather linked to a reflection on the emergence of new voices from contemporary art galleries, based on dialogue and collaboration.

For this second part of SESSIONS, we’ve chosen to show works by the Italian Franco Bellucci.

With the current situation of dematerialization and spectacularization of the market, of the art fairs’ omnipresence, of the auction houses and big trading names, of individualism and competition, SESSIONS wishes to be a collaborative and convivial event, in order to develop a sustained dialogue between art dealers but also with the other actors of the art world.

These sessions are developed in four thematic exhibitions. the galleries invite you to discover a vast panel of the contemporary creation during four successive evenings and numerous events, with a spirit of sharing and meeting.

A frequent participant to the Blu Cammello workshop in Livorno, Bellucci was first discovered by artist Riccardo Bargellini. The hybrid sculptures he produces are made up of heterogeneous objects whose fates are inexorably linked, observed sometimes through the prism of their transitional, fetishist or apotropaic value.
Present in the collections of the Musée National d’Art Moderne (Pompidou) and the Museum für Moderne Kunst in Frankfurt, his works have been shown in several major exhibitions, notably at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris.
“These works are endowed with a symbolic power that many ‘professional’ artists are incapable of achieving. “(P. Dagen, Le Monde)
