Una mostra dedicata alla Luce che dà forma alla materia, nell'Anno Internazionale dell'energia luminosa.
L’evento espositivo è, infatti, un evento ufficiale di UNESCO - International Year of Light and Light based Technologies (IYL2015).
lorenzoArs, artista poliedrico abruzzese di origine ma con un percorso artistico internazionale, immerge lo
spettatore nel mistero dello spazio vuoto, attraversato e plasmato dalla Luce, e nei segreti formali delle sue zone
d'ombra.
LUX INFORMAE, alla Società delle Belle Arti - Circolo degli artisti "Casa di Dante" di Firenze, dal 28
novembre al 21 dicembre 2015, vede protagonista un percorso espositivo che è soprattutto un processo
aperto e dinamico in grado di evidenziare la fluidità della sperimentazione creativa, superando i concetti di
staticità e immobilità che spesso si accompagnano all'idea della fotografia da “collezione”.
Light is pure energy, but when it merges with matter it becomes shape.
The exhibition concerns the Light that moulds the matter and is an Official event of the UNESCO International Year of Light and Light based Technologies (IYL2015).
Starting from the desire to shape the Light, lorenzoArs wraps the viewer in an imaginative and multi-sensorial
experience that comes to life from the darkness. The artist started this long and ambitious project in the '90s,
using analogical photographic equipment and today, during the International Year of Light 2015, he exhibits
the Aesthetic of the Light. The sculptural approach of his research shows how light "form" and "trans- form" the
empty space, when it intercepts a sensitive medium. His "sculptures of light" enclose and then evoke the pictorial
matter and the plastic materials. The molded Light is, in turn, the element of a communication process, which
aims to catch the truth of vision and perception. A dynamic depth where colors create an indefinite dimension.
Sign disappears, Light changes and shapes appearances. Subject to the "law of change", light creates
harmonies between sensory and transcendence. LUX INFORMAE turns, in fact, the two-dimensional being of
the Photography into a "multiple points of view" setting to attract the viewer in a designed three-dimensional
space. You have the sensation of floating in unstable figures, where the suggestion of the shapes is merges with
that of the observer. Between density and transparency, light-sculptures emphasize the light-dark dichotomy that
does not exclude symbolic values related to Life and Body. The "body of the light" borns, it is formed and
evolves, creating a tangible immateriality. So, this series recombines the physical reality and the apparent one,
fusing and con-fusing them to create harmony. Imaginative passion emerges thank to the genesis of colors that
invade the space, modeling it. The experience - to which we are subjected - is so intimately connected with the
light-space. So, this exhibition will grow, mutate and evolve in an infinite series, which recalls the sense of our
life and its flow. LorenzoArs firm the matter-form-light connection showing, at the same time, the unstable
boundaries of all the artistic techniques.

ABSTRACT
In this exhibition, that involves different techniques and media, but where Photography is the chosen tool,
Lorenzo presents a reflection and a production based, among others, on three elements: light, shape, material.
Complex balance between the desire to give shape to light and, as a declaration of intent, to bring out the shape
through the use of light. Shape that emerges, according to the artist, from a mixture between the human species
and nature, between the inside and the outside, between physicality and spirituality.
His analogical photographs and Polaroid prints, are both a presentation of the body and a reflection on the body
and on the identity of the subject.
A hybrid body that, as it appears in these artworks, or rather in their programmed sequence, is a hybrid of
commissions ranging from culture, identity, techniques.
A body that is neither completely natural nor wholly artificial (Bernard Andrieu, in Les avatars du corps).
Through the shape the body emerges from the dark (from the emptiness? Complex concept ...) and the body
itself embodies the shape ....
A research and application of photographic technique, that of Lorenzo, characterized by an experimental and
productive relationship with the new media, as we call it, where the subject is placed gradually in a still image,
suspended into a process of experience and knowledge, of sense construction and perception of reality.
