I was specifically asked to include works from Pesaro’s collections, and during the first inspection, it was easy to find the key by exploiting the demon of analogy: a Christ and the Manigoldo painted by Giuseppe Maria Crespi, damaged during World War II following the destruction of a wing of Palazzo Mosca in which the painting on copper was kept. How and with what attitude did you engage with them? Does the title of the exhibition refer to this confrontation? In your last solo exhibition The candle to make light must consume itself, which was held from July to October 2017 at the Pescheria Visual Arts Center in Pesaro, your works dialogued with the collections of the Civic Museums of Palazzo Mosca. Ilaria Baratta interviewed him and Nicola Samorì told us about his art. Painting in Milan (Palazzo Reale), solo shows at the MAC in Lissone, the Kunsthalle in Kiel, and the Pescheria Visual Arts Center in Pesaro. Among the high points of his career were his participation in two Venice Biennales, that of the exhibition Italian Art 1968-2007.

He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna and has exhibited all over the world.

Known for his paintings that recall the aesthetics of the seventeenth century, Samorì investigates the action of time, our relationship with the past, with museums and with art history, and the alteration that works undergo over time. Nicola Samorì (Forlì, 1977) is one of the most interesting and celebrated contemporary Italian artists. A painter and sculptor, in this interview he tells Ilaria Baratta about his art. They come from a wide range of backgrounds and bring with them a variety of skills (among our team are actors, entertainers, magicians, musicians and singers).
