Themes and
style:
Zerbini uses a rich and luminous palette on a
range of different subject matter from landscapes, cityscapes, and domestic
scenes to those with a more obscure or even abstract intention. By juxtaposing
styles and techniques, organic and geometric patterns, fields of light and
shadow, he creates optical effects that beckon for contemplation. He is an
artist that constantly multiplies the formal possibilities related to his
painting and rejects any potential stagnation of established formula, making it
difficult to define any linearity in his production.
Techniques:
He produces paintings, sculptures, and installations
Exhibitions
He has exhibited in galleries and museums across Brazil and
the world and has represented Brazil at notable Biennales including the São
Paulo Biennial (2010 and 1987); Bienal do Mercosul (2001); Bienal de La Habana
(2000); and the Bienal Internacional de Cuenca (1996). He is also part of the
renowned Chelpa Ferro group, participants of the São Paulo's 20th Biennial.See all
