The Galleries Franco Noero and Sonia Rosso are proud to announce the solo-show of Jim Lambie. The result of this collaboration is a unique project realized with works expecially conceived for both these spaces in Turin.
Jim Lambie works are based on musical and popular culture and are characterized by the use of found objects. He then interacts with the space through the use of masking tape, doors, mirrors, records cover, glitters, and pins.
The scottish artist realizes objets directly linked to the world of art and design. Jim Lambie has the gift to tease elegance from mess: thrift- store scraps, junk- shop kitsch, nails, bits of old stick, metres of black vinyl tape, bulging lumps, coat hook. In Lambieʼs hands, this strictly B- grade stuff is transformed into powerful and enigmatic objects, strange and compelling environments.
