Comunicato stampa

LdM Gallery is pleased to present To Take Flight by Fabrizio Ajello, an artistic project featuring works created through the interaction of different media, but above all through text-to-image applications. These works challenge our understanding and perceptual habits.

The relationship between the image and what we, in some ways, define as reality—one of the intrinsic questions in the very existence of art—has been at the heart of Ajello’s artistic research for several years, which he addresses in the book L’immagine Leggera: arte ricondizionata, sognata, ritrasmessa (The Light Image: Reconditioned, Dreamed, Retransmitted Art), published in 2024 by Castelvecchi Editore.

To Take Flight presents an imagery that takes us back to themes and styles traceable to the Renaissance and Baroque periods, mimetically yet always with a reinterpretative and liminal approach. Upon approaching, the viewers cannot find the conventional supports or formats, nor can they even glimpse the brushstrokes or smell the oil paint and even the iconography is alienating and disturbing. The representations are something else entirely, created by the artist through an extensive research process with the help of some TTI applications that exploit artificial intelligence.

The LdM Gallery is a project by Istituto Lorenzo de’ Medici, an interdisciplinary space where academic research and artistic experimentation meet within a professional setting.
