Giuseppe Caccavale
Text by Chiara Bertola, Laura Cherubini, Claudia Gian Ferrari, Giuseppe Caccavale.
Having steeped himself in Italy's famous tradition of fresco painting, Giuseppe Caccavale (born 1960) has updated the genre, embracing its inherent properties—exposure to the elements, site-specificness—and its materials, such as river sand, lime, carbon and pigments dissolved in water. The beauty of Caccavale's frescoes lies in their evocation of these materials, and their earthiness.
