Bologna
Eclectic and manifold, the linguistical universe of Urs Lüthi is inspired from the 60s to today to the most varied media forms, which make his work appear as an extremely multi-faceted and complex whole. From photography to sculpture, from the object to the editions, from the performance to the video up to the installation, Urs Lüthi does not put aside the painting techniques he explores in the early 80s and for the duration of a decade, experimenting a new language between continuity and break. In the large figurative canvases painted in acrylic and placed in the gallery's exhibition rooms in dialogue with different cycles of sculptural self-portraits, female and male bodies dominate and overlap with each other, now stylistically declined as photo-realistic representations of almost classic nudes, now as comic figures similar to cartoons or as amused executions close to the elementary nature of graffiti.
