The future with an ancient heart: work by the contemporary artist Pier Luca Bencini, who represents a partial view of the Milanese Unicredit Tower. Uncontested protagonist of the work, the Tower designed by the architect Cesar Pelli represents today also the protagonist of the modern Milanese skyoline: with its 231 meters of height, Unicredit Tower is indeed the highest building of Milan, overcoming also the majestic Dome. Architectural and symbolic heart of the city from Lombardia, the Dome is reflected in the shiny surface of Unicredit Tower, marking the bond of the city with its past, present and future.
Florence, Italy
Florentine by birth and Milanese since ever, he paints since his adolescence, trying to tell through shapes and colours what he cannot express and spread in its entirety of reality and its mistery, without a word too much dependent from cogency. In a society where everything is dominated, filtered and mediated by digital and virtual, thanks to his activity of surgeon and dermatologist, Bencini still loves manual skill and the gesture of directly immerging and impacting with the material, transforming and molding it. In this sense, he loves being defined an artisan, as his friend Pippo Basile does, and exactly like him he considers his works, which derive from the manual transformation of the sunstance, one of the most sincere Human expression and one of the closest to the divine gesture of creation. Pier Luca Bencini has always conceived arts as a gift.
The proceeds of some of his exhibitions, such as “Oltre, il paesaggio ritrovato”, have been entirely devolved to the support of missionary works in Africa.
