In collaboration with Antonio Alberti and
the University of
Trieste, I organized “Geologia&Arte” (Geology&Art),
exploring the aesthetic diversity of geological art. The exhibit is based on
accurate reproductions of geoartistic artworks, ranging from Renaissance
paintings to modern microphotographs.
Featured artists include Philippe Salmon,
Ian Barrett, Alexandre de Barde, Giotto di Bondone, Leonardo da Vinci, Bernardo
Cesare, Licio Tezza, Charles Knight, Heinrich Harder, Fredric Church,
Thomas Cole, Carl Spitzweg, George Victor du Noyer and Chris Drury.
Although “Geologia&Arte” represents a
first glimpse in the world of geoart, the exhibit has met great success, being
appealing both to geological and artistic thinkers. For this reason, I hope to
improve the exhibit in the future, covering more artists and more media. There
is whole geoartistic universe to explore!
