The exhibition "Jannis Kounellis: Io sono un pittore" is the first to examine the work of artist Jannis Kounellis (Piraeus, 1936 – Rome, 2017) taking painting as its main focus. Curated by Vincenzo de Bellis and organised in collaboration with the Archivio Kounellis in Rome, it takes its guiding theme from the artist's often-uttered phrase "I am a painter", a statement concerned with his approach to reality rather than technique or medium. Spanning the entirety of Kounellis's career, the show brings together over 35 works from the late 1950s to 2014. Rather than a chronological narration, it unfolds as a constellation of lines linking matter and weight, language and signs, memories and silence, forging a broader, more radical perspective than the conventional view of the artist as a leading figure of Arte Povera.
