My next solo exhibition – “Colors Of An Apocalypse 2.0” – will take place in this capturing and amazing Romanesque Baptistery on Lake Como, Italy. My show is scheduled for 3 days, on 3-4-5 July, 2015, in the beautiful Lenno town, in the historical center – 50 meters from the lake shore! – where we admire one of the most stunning examples of Romanesque art in Northen Italy. More news comin’ soon… In the meantime enjoy some photos about the enchanting St. John Baptistery (XI Century) on Lake Como.

About “LACER/ACTIONS” PROJECT by ROBERTO ALBORGHETTI
LaceR/Actions is a multidisciplinary project and research about the apparent chaos of ripped and decomposed publicity posters, natural cracks, crevices, scratches and urban and industrial signs and tokens (during my research around the world I collected so far about 55.000 images). Transferred on canvases, reproduced on lithographic prints or textiles (as pure silk), re-built on collages or scanned in videoclips, the images of torn and disfigured posters and natural cracks give new meanings and expressions to paper lacerations and matter decomposition.
One of my most recent shows (“Colors of an Apocalypse: An Intrigue for the Eyes and Mind from the Decomposed Publicity Posters”) was displaced for 100 days in the enchanting Aldobrandesca Fortress (XIII Century) in Tuscany (Piancastagnaio, Siena, Italy). In the last two years I was on these projects: “Contemplations and Lacer/actions” (album, videoclip, installations, inspired by Thomas of Bergamo Scripts, 1563-1631), “Atelier of Colors and Emotions” (a project which involved autistic kids), “Lacer/actions on Aluminium” (11 installations for Fai Private Collection, Italy). My works are part of Contemporary Art Collection (Mercatello sul Metauro, Marche, Italy) and participating to “An Exhibition, a Restoration” in Norcia (Umbria, Italy) from July 12 to September 7, 2014. Now I’m working on “The Ghost Bus” project, in collaboration with Bartons Plc and Act Group, Beeston, Nottingham, UK (January-February 2015).
My next solo show (“Colors of an Apocalypse 2.0”) will be running on Lake Como, Lenno, Italy, on 3-4-5 July, 2015, in a special and spectacular location: the St. John Baptistery (XI Century), a beautiful example of Romanesque Art.
What a lovely setting, what a pity I will be back in Australia by then.

Sorry Marina for the mistake in replying (I clicked the line below…) So this is a beautiful occasion to renew to you my best wishes for 2015!
I’m pleased for you. This is an accommodating setting for your work. I studied Romanesque architecture and love your work. Would be a great way to spend my birthday. (But only a wish as I cannot afford) Good luck, happy for you.
Thank you so much Elizabeth for your comment! Yes, it’s a wonderful setting for my kind of artworks and for the same theme of the exhibition (“Colors of an Apocalypse”). I’ll be posting some more news in the next weeks. And thanks to social networks and the web the event could be followed everywhere.
