XILOGRAVURA - 1

Presentation Texts – Oneiric Reliefs

The proposed exhibition is the result of an artistic process that began about 10 years ago and has intensified in the last five years. Antonio Gerbase participated in numerous individual and group exhibitions in Switzerland, Brazil and Italy.

Antonio Gerbase worked for many years as a physician for the World Health Organization (WHO) in the field of AIDS. He has lived in Geneva since 1994, having developed a close connection with the Alpine mountains and countryside in Geneva.

In the works on display, most of the landscapes, technique and language were adapted to the artist’s sources of inspiration and expression needs.

He is interested in placing art in places where it can be seen by a wide range of the population, stimulating the gaze and at the same time making the exhibition a place for dialogue between all interested parties.
