Opening 20 January 2016 at 8:30 PM
On Wednesday, 20th January 2016 at 8:30 PM, the Italian Embassy Cultural
Centre, New Delhi will witness the inauguration of the exhibition “Stampone – Banerjee and the
third meaning”, curated by Eugenio Viola and Srinivas Aditya Mopidevi
This project is borne as a result of meetings and dialogues between two curators, two artists with
two different operative methodologies, in a more general way, about an intercultural exchange
between Italy and India.
Giuseppe Stampone and Sarnath Banerjee are two artists hailing from two
different realities, whose research and work, though distant from each other, have in common the
practice of design, used by both of them, to look into and question the contradictions and the
anxiety of modernity in the art of representing the reality, sometimes controversial, even if often
diluted by some irony. A baffling short-circuit is emphasized by the relationship between word and
image that appears constantly in the works of both Stampone and Banerjee. And from this emerges
the “third meaning” which hints to the title as well.
