Ingrao Gallery Presents Marco Perego: Devolution September 20, 2007

Ingrao Gallery is pleased to present “DEVOLUTION,” a powerful ensemble of new paintings and sculpture by Italian artist Marco Perego. In this first American exhibition of his work, Perego uses his signature pop style to explore his notions of contemporary human interaction. The concept of “Devolution” is taken up by Perego to describe ‘reverse-evolution,’ or society¹s regression back in time, to the era of Adam and Eve. “I see more and more people today closing themselves within this technological bubble via cell phones, blackberries, iPods, computers; they have individual freedom, but as a whole society loses,” he says from his New York studio. The exhibition will commence with an opening night preview on Thursday, September 20th and will be open to the public from Friday, September 21st through Saturday, October 20th. Gallery hours are Monday – Friday, 10 am – 5 pm and otherwise by appointment by calling 212.472.9631. For Press Inquiries please contact Nataile Maniscalco at 212.580.0835 or via email at Natalie@rcourihaycpr.com.
