Biography

Lorenzo Gnata (Biella, 1997) is an Italian artist. He is graduated from the Albertina Academy of Fine Arts in Turin.

His artistic research is concentrated around the dramas of the contemporary human being, showing, through actions with a strong poetic impact, all his fragility.

He has a “conceptual-figurative” approach, and uses images and symbols to talk about matters far beyond the mere visible.

Works by him have been exhibited at: Reggia di Venaria (Turin), Artissima (Turin), La Triennale (Milan), Treccani Foundation (Naples), Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation (Venice).

It’s raining, personal exhibition of Lorenzo Gnata.
The exhibition proposal, curated by the Ghёddo Association and CRAG Gallery is part of a wider program of exhibitions, curated by the Ghёddo Association, which provides for the collaboration between artists and contemporary art spaces in the Turin area. The entire project is carried out with the support and patronage of the Accademia Albertina of Turin and the City of Turin and with the support of the Venesio Foundation.
Listen. It’s raining – the title of which draws inspiration from Gabriele D’Annunzio’s famous poem Rain in the Pine Grove – is a project specially conceived by Lorenzo Gnata for CRAG Gallery. «Those of the “poet poet” are verses full of panic sensations, in which the rain, like an invisible veil, without distinction, covers and envelops everything, making everything a single pulsation of nature» – says the artist.
Thus, conceived as an aesthetic homage to Nature and to the places where human feeling and the plant world interpenetrate, the exhibition narrates, through sculptures and environmental installations, the ineffable delicacy of emotions.
