After their debut at the Galleria d'Arte Maggiore g.a.m. at the beginning of the 1980s, Bertozzi & Casoni, now internationally renowned, return to exhibit within the gallery walls. The main theme of the exhibition is the homage to Giorgio Morandi, presented both with a selection of "Flowers" and "Landscapes" by the Master, and with real "d'aprés Morandi" that the duo Bertozzi & Casoni have created, interpreting and filtering Morandi's lesson through ceramics, their favorite medium. In these works by Bertozzi & Casoni, created for an exhibition at the Museo Morandi in 2019, not only the palette turn from bright to pastel, but their investigation into vanitas, memento mori and transience, which has always been conducted through snapshots of flora and fauna and of the leftovers of consumer civilization, also involves Morandi's flowers, with unexpected results.
