Exhibitions, Italy, Roma, 02 November 2021
Sogno notturno
ROSSOCINABRO is pleased to announce the first extensive presentation of Tondi Hasibuan's paintings in Rome.
The first solo exhibition by Indonesian artist Tondi Hasibuan at the gallery reveals the cubist side of Tondi's artistic practice. The large ensemble of more framed pieces covers the walls of the exhibition space. The acrylic on canvases presents the viewer with an impression of Tondi’s personal relationship with his work as an artist and the avant garde movements of the XX Century art world in especially Tondi was attracted by Cubism of Picasso and by Fauvism of Matisse. Within the strong colours and the strong brush, characteristic of the Matisse's paintings, strokes well familiar motives from Tondi’s oeuvre pop up in the monumental yet playful colours cosmos: flowers, leaves, circles, straight lines and cubes as well as abstract stripe paintings, rainbows, animals and lions. His central interest of involving the viewer in the artwork becomes apparent in the near life sized ‘head studies’ whose side views seem like mirror images of the classic statues. The relation and inspiration of Picasso's paintings of the Cubist period are evident. Many of the acrylic works connect Tondi to the classicism of the Italian and Grecian sculptures. Their underlying subtle humour hints towards contemporary lifestyles and understandings of art.
