The New York dealer Robert Simon will be opening an exhibition on the Neapolitan painter Luca Giordano in a few days' time. This selling exhibition, the first ever dedicated to the artist in New York, will draw from the gallery's stock alongside works lent from private collections.
According to the gallery's press release:
Robert Simon commented, “Giordano is beloved by me, and by many others, for his visceral appeal, for his varied style, and the vitality of his compositions. The idiosyncratic personality of the man is evident in every painting.”
The exhibition will be accompanied by an online catalogue with an introduction by Giordano scholar Giuseppe Scavizzi, viewable on the gallery’s website. Additionally, copies of Scavizzi’s English language monograph on the artist will be available for purchase during the exhibition. In addition to the more than a dozen works by Giordano, several works by his contemporaries will be on view.
The exhibition will be on display from 5th June until 28th June 2024.
