Lorenzo Brinati: Non rendere il visibile, ma rendilo visibile
Upcoming exhibition
Can an emotion be made tangible? Can energy take form, become sound, image, or action? This question echoes through the work of Lorenzo Brinati, who, like many artists before him, seeks not just to represent what is seen, but to reveal what is felt: the unseen forces that shape the visible world.
Nearly a century ago, Paul Klee imagined an art capable of reproducing the invisible, an art that reaches beyond surface appearance to uncover the inner workings of life. Philosopher Gilles Deleuze later elaborated: “In art, in painting as in music, it is not a question of reproducing or inventing forms, but of capturing forces.” These are the same forces Brinati attempts to materialize, not through illustration, but through resonance.
His works are held together, conceptually and physically, by this tension: the interplay between what is visible and what is not. Newton’s third law of motion - every action met by an equal and opposite reaction - becomes a metaphor for Brinati’s practice. For every form there is a counter-form, for every material, an immaterial counterpart. What binds the elements in his installations or compositions is not merely structure or technique, but something more elusive: a presence, an energy, a memory.
In Brinati’s work, it is often the intangible that generates the tangible. Thought becomes action. Action becomes matter. And matter becomes a vessel for meaning. His art gives form to these invisible catalysts - those internal currents that shape our external realities.
This belief aligns not only with contemporary physics, where quantum forces govern the material world beyond our perception, but also with ancient wisdoms that recognized the vital power of unseen energies. Across time, certain truths persist: that we are shaped by what we cannot always name or hold.
Visitors are invited to enter this space with openness - not to decipher a singular message, but to sense the silent exchanges between elements, the quiet weight of presence, and the unseen threads that connect all things.
