My friend Scott introduced me to Irakli and Dea. He met them at a party in Tbilisi and they told him they were moving to NYC.
I needed someone helping me to move some of my paintings from my house to a new studio I just rented and Scott gave me Irakli's contact. When he came to my house, we started packing right away. We put all the works in the car and together with my dog drove to the studio.
Irakli liked my dog and my dog liked Irakli.
Dea came to pick up Irakli after we finished the move, she had to go to some casting in the city and after that they were going to a concert.
Dea liked my dog and my dog liked Dea.
They looked so good together, young, elegant and gentle.
Giangiacomo Rossetti was born in Milan in 1989. He attended the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan and in 2019 graduated from Die Institut Kunst FHNW in Basel. His solo exhibitions include DEEPSTARIA ENIGMATICA, Riverside, Bern (2018), KRIS, Federico Vavassori, Milan (2017) and Bellarmina, Warm, São Paulo (2016). His work has been featured in several group exhibitions such as Techniques of the Observer at Greene Naftali Gallery, New York (2019); Nightfall at Mendes Wood DM, Brussels (2018); Tra l'inquietudine e il Martello at Federico Vavassori, Milan (2018). Rossetti's recent projects include I got the Moon in the Morning and the Sun at Night at WallRiss, Fribourg (2019) as well as the exhibition Amadeo Luciano Lorenzato at Mendes Wood DM, Brussels (2019).
Intellectually rigorous, politically active, and highly conceptual, the programme of contemporary art gallery Mendes Wood DM places an emphasis on critical conversation, working to embrace the individuality of each artist while also supporting the discovery of intersections between practices that might initially seem disparate.
