For Roberto Piaia, celebrating the 40th artistic anniversary at the historic walls of Casa Cima, imbued with life, art and culture, takes on a profound meaning.

Achieving considerable success. Piaia’s art has been presented multiple times in this splendid setting achieving considerable success. His first personal appearance was in 2008, and later years he participated with group showings.

During this time, Cima Foundation has supported the master at an institutional level, supporting Piaia in his success across Italy and abroad. Special thanks to the Intuition and it’s President Grazia Maria Curtarelli.

This symbolic place actually represents a pleasant and meaningful return home for Master Piaia

The exhibition will be divided into a reverse path. In the first entrance hall, sculptures and recent paintings will be on display. To then continue on the upper floor of the House Museum, with the works created previously.

Beyond the Form

The title of the exhibition, Beyond the Form, clearly illustrates the meaning expressed by the Master’s works.

The continuous research, has led him towards boundaries that seem to go beyond the limits of matter. All this is visible in the paintings. In addition to a technical skill of the shape, they are enveloped in a thousand shades of color. And symbols that flow into the real world through deep messages hidden in the unconscious of each of us.

Harmony, beauty, intuition, going beyond the tangible form, capturing and enhancing all the best of what surrounds us and making it firm, real, visible. This is Piaia’s research in Sculpture.

Bodies outlined by a thin spiral transport us into an imaginary world of dreams. A place, and space of mind, where we can dive in and let our imagination run wild. The spiral is the ancestral symbol that represents the essence of Life, and of all Creation.

Look at some works from the Exhibition

Beyond the Form’ the life of the Master

Roberto Piaia currently his lives in Mindelheim, City in Lower Allgäu Germany, where paints in his Art Studio. Also, the Master often returns to Pietrasanta (Tuscany) for Bronze castings in the renowned foundries of the city. And for sculpt his Sculptures in precious Carrara Marble.

Returning often to childhood home, he has an Art Studio in the city called Pieve di Soligo.

This city is located in the heart of the famous hills of Prosecco Conegliano Valdobbiadene Unesco Heritage: on 7 July 2019 the Unesco Assembly recognizes the World Heritage “The Hills of the Prosecco of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene” and inscribes them in the list of cultural landscapes to be protected.

When he’s among these gentle hills, the master seems to captivate even more inspiration. Expressing and materialize his talent.

From these places the idea of the spiral was born. First by practicing painting which gave him the opportunity to study the visual effect of solids and transparency. Meanwhile, to calculate and evaluate what might be the strengths or weaknesses of a sculptural structure. Made in bronze, or stones such as the precious Carrara marble.

Some of the most shown Sculptures and Paintings will be present in this exhibition.

And here, for example Over Statue in Carrara statuary Marble, coupled with the bronze version. Work created with an original metal alloy that amalgamates Bronze to one part of Steel and Silver. The overall view creates a futuristic effect.

On the adjacent walls, paintings outlined in a spiral effect are sinuous women’s bodies.

Roberto Piaia and the Woman

“Roberto Piaia enters the list of artists who best express their talent by portraying women in their thousands of mysterious facets. Each painting becomes a story, an experience full of symbols that represent the various aspects of his inspiring Muse. The Woman as mother, saint, devil, or the woman as a lover. The Woman as a precious treasure of life itself, of moving humanity. They are represented naturally spontaneous. It makes them aware of their wonderful role, their potential and beauty.”

Come and visit us. This important exhibition, set in this marvelous historical building is an experience where you can enjoy the pleasures of true art. Open your mind and convey curiosity.
