Agostino Iacurci really impressed with scale and humor in Atlanta for Living Walls this past summer and now he has taken his outsized geometric illustrated forms to Rome to participate Wunderkammern’s Public and Confidential series. Light hearted, sure-footed, and hand-controlled, his climbing figures invite you to help tell the story, to be pleased and bemused while contemplating the balanced ying/yang of their positions.
Whatever your reading of this composition is, it is precisely this kind of intimate experience one can have with public work that the series intends to highlight. With a smart palette and love for a flatly dimensional scene, Iacurci places just the right amount of exactitude in his choices to let you know that as fun as this work looks, he’s not playing.
Special thanks to photographer Giorgio Coen Cagli for sharing these exclusive shots of Agostino at work with BSA readers.
