Palazzo Fagnani
The Pool NYC - Constante Colore
“Our name
is taken from the place of our first exhibition in an old swimming hall in New
York City. But, our name has much wider implications. It implies a gathering –
a pooling – of artists of diverse backgrounds from different cultures into an
entity dedicated to the pursuit of art.”
Luigi Franchin and Viola Romoli
Luigi Franchin and Viola Romoli, founders in
2009, of The Pool NYC, previously a touring gallery, they celebrated the opening of
their new permanent exhibition space in Milan at Palazzo Fagnani, with a
group show focused on colour and entitled Colore Costante, until February 16.

Always Colour, from the dawn of art
till today…
In Costante Colore (Constant:
Colour) the works on display are an ode to colour, the pictorial substance that
is declined according to the expression of each artist. We focus on the way of using the colour in
order to highlight the importance and the constancy in the world of art
regardless the subject or the medium of the work on exhibit.

Colour is matter, scent, space
Colour arouses strong emotions such
as tension, obsession, eroticism, action, joy, euphoria, rupture, movement,
pain, desire, passion, surprise, chance, option, balance, entropy, physicality,
transfiguration, proportion, coherence.

Black and white gain significance in
Art History
Colour becomes clarity with Impressionism,
does not stop with DaDa, shines in Secessionism, triumphs with Pop-Art,
degenerates with Expressionism, erupts with Abstractism, subsides with
Minimalism, suffers in the Arte Povera, stabilizes with Transavanguardia. The
artistic movements evolve, the centuries pass by, the colour keeps burning.

Colour evolves, changes, becomes
warmer, becomes fluorescent, becomes neon light, becomes non-colour.
