“Omaggio alla pittura Rupestre” by Andrea Benetti 
curated by Marzia Ratti 

Now in its third stage, Andrea Benetti‘s exhibition project arrives at the San Giorgio Castle Museum in La Spezia, after having been presented at the Chamber of Deputies in April 2015 (VR60768 – Anthropomorphic Figures) and at the University of Ferrara in May and June 2016 (preHISTORIA CONTEMPORANEA). The current display at the San Giorgio Castle Museum features an exhibition by Andrea Benetti, entitled “Omaggio alla pittura Rupestre,” curated by Marzia Ratti and inspired by the origins of cave painting. A key component of the exhibition is a video artwork projected on the same theme. Several of the canvases on display were created by Andrea Benetti using Paleolithic pigments found during excavations at the Grotta di Fumane (VR)—pigments once used by prehistoric humans to paint five stones, also discovered at the site.
