Kit Craig

Galleria Maria Grazia del Prete, Roma

-------'-english below

A cura di Silvia Colaiacomo

La Galleria Maria Grazia Del Prete è lieta di presentare Nine Men’s Morris, prima personale romana dell'artista inglese Kit Craig (Oxford, 1980), a cura di Silvia Colaiacomo, con il patrocinio del British Council.

L'artista ha realizzato per l'occasione un corpus di nuovi lavori-indagine sulla concretizzazione visiva e oggettuale del linguaggio. Come un gioco di ruolo e dominata dalle sue stesse dinamiche, la comunicazione si fonda su limitate combinazioni di concetti mutualmente comprensibili o all'apparenza tali. Libero da supponenza razionalista, il lavoro di Kit Craig esplora la definizione di significati condivisi attraverso la scomposizione di forme primarie, creando eleganti scenari di logica pura privi di vanità.

Kit Craig si diploma presso Chelsea School of Art & Design - MA Fine Art. Tra le sue mostre personali: 2011 On Measuring
Uncertainty (con Andrew Lim) Castlefield Gallery Manchester, UK; 2010 173cm Arcade, Londra, UK; 2009 Galleria Norma

Curated by Silvia Colaiacomo

Maria Grazia Del Prete Gallery is pleased to present Nine Men's Morris, first solo exhibition in Rome of the English artist Kit Craig (Oxford, 1980), curated by Silvia Colaiacomo, with the patronage of the British Council. On the occasion, the artist has created a new corpus of works-studies on visual and physical materialization of language.

As in a role-play game and being dominated by its own dynamics, communication is based on limited combinations of mutually comprehensible concepts, or supposed so. Free form rationalist arrogance, Craig's work explores the definition of agreed meanings by decomposing primary shapes and creating elegant scenarios of pure, vainless logic.

Kit Craig graduated from Chelsea School of Art & Design - MA Fine Art. Personal show include: 2011 On Measuring
Uncertainty (with Andrew Lim) Castlefield Gallery - Manchester, UK; 2010 173cm Arcade, London, UK; 2009 Norma
