Lo Sciamano blu
Andrea Benetti
The works are made on canvas, with pigments dating back to the Paleolithic, found in the archaeological excavations of the Fumane cave, in the province of Verona.
More ...The cycle of works by Andrea Benetti, using archaeological material dating back to the Paleolithic, was born from the collaboration of the Master with the University of Ferrara and with the Department of Arts of the University of Bologna, for the realization of the exhibition, held in April 2015, in the Chamber of Deputies, entitled "VR60768 anthropomorphic figures". For the exhibition project, the Department of Letters and Philosophy of the University of Ferrara and precisely "Prehistoric Archeology" provided Benetti with prehistoric material (ocher, coal, earth and washing sediments of the finds) dating back to the level of the Paleolithic excavations. The material was used by Andrea Benetti, with travertine powder, to create an effect on the canvas that emulates the rock face.
