This catalog documents an exhibition of paintings by the Italian artist Roberto Fanari at the Studio Museo Francesco Messina in Milan. The central feature of the show is
The Rediscovered Sky, a painting on canvas, 12 meters long and 6 metres wide, on two panels composed of 36 individual canvases and placed at a height of 12 metres. Other works shown on the ground floor are closely connected to the painted ceiling piece through their affinity or contrast. The centrality of nature in his work, and the link between art and nature, are evident in the way architectural elements of the surrounding space are incorporated into a seamless dialogue with the work. The artist, inspired by John Constable, has often focused on the subject of the sky and clouds, achieving an effect that evokes the dreamlike and visionary aspects of the imagination.
