Ernesto Tatafiore

In the exhibition catalogue Ernesto Tatafiore - Instruments, the viewer encounters a “changed, indeed a new Tatafiore” in large-format acrylic works on canvas and paper. With his exuberant imagination, “he continues to shift mountains, cause volcanoes to erupt, twist fish, sink ships, thrill to beautiful bosoms and the erotic charms of ravishing women. […] Lately, however, he has been reducing their sparkling variety, in order place a stronger emphasis on the individual piece.“ (Herwig Guratzsch)
Ernesto Tatafiore’s work ranks among the most important and multi-layered in Italian contemporary art, and is represented in museum collections worldwide.
