Installation view. One Art, Please!, Primo Marella Gallery Lugano, Switzerland, 2026.
A feature published by Juliet Art Magazine offers an in-depth reading of One Art, Please!, the exhibition at Primo Marella Gallery in Lugano, curated by Maria Vittoria Baravelli and bringing together the work of Marco Mazzucconi and Stefano Arienti.
Rather than presenting a straightforward comparison between two artists of the same generation, the article highlights how the exhibition develops a dialogue centred on the instability of images and the shifting nature of perception. Through subtle interventions and transformations of materials, both artists encourage viewers to reconsider how meaning is constructed and continuously redefined.
Special attention is given to Marco Mazzucconi's practice, which has long investigated the fragile boundary where images remain recognisable while their meaning begins to fracture. His works demonstrate an ongoing exploration of representation, using different media to challenge visual conventions and expand the possibilities of interpretation.
According to the article, the encounter with Stefano Arienti creates a compelling exhibition in which similarities and differences become mutually enriching, inviting audiences to reflect on the transformative power of artistic practice and on the constantly evolving relationship between reality, memory, and visual experience.
