“Orizzonte dei Rossi”, a most recent work, proposes not just an all-engaging vision of an extraordinary suspension of elements, but combines the idea of eternal youth, of remaining a child no matter what, with the dream of representing every possible shade of red. An extraordinarily engaging work where the discovery of the world coincides with its creation. The symbolism of this colour offers endless hints – from Boniface VIII, the inventor of cardinal red, to (once again) fire, purification, and rubedo, or the reddening of alchemic transmutation: but in the case of Bevignani it is best to stop and consider the value of the epiphany of colour.
