The artwork is part of the collection "OVER THE LINES."
THE EXHIBITION "OVER THE LINES"
In Crespi’s art, infinite lines chase each other without ever coming together, touching and moving away as in a sensual dance, which sinuously and mockingly plays with the viewer, through optical illusion. The aesthetic of the work attracts the eye and at the same time destabilizes it, leaving the viewer with the doubt of having really understood its entire essence.
“Over the Lines” is an invitation to go beyond the first destabilizing optical effect. It encourages the public to pay attention, the only way to merge into the image and feel it. A reflection and a reminder of a contemporary gaze now extremely hasty.
The title of the exhibition represents an unconventional philosophy of life for Andrea Crespi: pushing the boundaries, discovering new fields through artistic innovation and focusing on uncomfortable themes.
For the artist, the experimentation is a way to get to know each other better and through the understanding of the self, to shake the artistic force it contains, giving vent to one’s creativity. A process of liberation.
