About the Item
In over twenty years of activity he has developed a language that, starting from an emblematic figurality, arrives at the current symbolic research begun at the end of the 1980s.
In his works we can read a liberating gesture that tears and creates. From time to time he moves like a geologist or a topographer, declining emotions on the surfaces through tonal adjustments and modulated shifts in perspective.

1946, Palmi, Italy Lucio Perna arrived in Milan in the late 1970s and came into contact with Remo Brindisi, Ernesto Treccani and Aligi Sassu. In March 1998, he founded the 'SYMBOLICUM' movement with Federico Honegger, Fabio Masimo Ulivieri and the poet and art critic PEDRO FIORI, the group's theoretician. With his most recent works, Perna traces a very personal research path that goes beyond the label of abstraction or informal appeal. In his works one can read a liberating gesture that tears and creates. From time to time he moves like a geologist or a topographer, declining emotions on the surfaces through tonal adjustments and modulated shifts in perspective. The space of the image expands like 'chromatic magic'. Structures are reduced to the essential. Signs, shapes, colours merge in his iconology into 'silent messages of words never spoken': a style-language made of silences. This expressive research brings Perna closer to the artistic-cultural movement "EMOTIONAL GEOGRAPHY", born in the United States at the beginning of this new century, of which Giuliana BRUNO, professor at Harvard, is the theorist, and which in Italy has been supported and popularised by the magazine "ARIA". Since 2019 she has been permanently collaborating with Almach Art Gallery for the presentation of new projects. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
