Pier Paolo Calzolari: Saudades presents twelve 2016 paintings shaped by the light and atmosphere of Lisbon. Using casein tempera with materials like gauze, copper, thumbtacks, and small brooms, Calzolari turns modest objects into meditations on place, memory, and fleeting brilliance. Guided by Arte Povera’s material inventiveness, the works evoke longing and the transient beauty of light where the Rio Tejo meets the Atlantic.
