Clemente is one of the most internationally famous contemporary Italian artists. Together with Enzo Cucchi, Nicola De Maria, Sandro Chia and Mimmo Paladino he was among the protagonists of the Italian Transavantgarde movement theorized in 1979 by Achille Bonito Oliva. Known for work spanning painting, sculpture and drawing, his art explores themes of identity, spirituality and connection between Eastern and Western cultures.

The series | In contemporary Italian art, the dynamic combination between tradition and innovation is expressed in the tension between the link with the country’s rich cultural heritage and the desire to move away from it, even to oppose it. The artists use new, unprecedented and different techniques, searching for the boundary between themselves, the fact that they are Italian and their desire to feel part of the international scene.
Free event, in Hebrew.
