Pablo Bronstein – Studies in mannerist decomposition

Museo Marino Marini, Florence

NOW CLOSED

Marino Marini Museum will inaugurate the personal show of artist Pablo Bronstein (1977) on Saturday 12 December with a new site-specific project for the Museum, curated by Alberto Salvadori and Leonardo Bigazzi. The exhibition, entitled Studies in mannerist decomposition, is the artist’s first personal show in an Italian institutional museum.

In this project, Pablo Bronstein has focused on one of his favourite themes, as he has for a long time: the re-elaboration of the stylistic and decorative elements of European architecture and theatre from the Renaissance to our time. His studies, formally realised in the form of extremely refined drawings, installations and performances, conceptualize a fascinating and uncontrollable theme, the principles of which are dictated by fantasy and the capacity to elaborate existing data, leading to the definition of a fascinating meta-history of architecture.
