Carlo D'Anselmi's solo exhibition 'Secrets and Mountains' opens at Fabienne Levy in Lausanne, Switzerland. The show presents a new body of work created during the artist's first stay in Switzerland, overlooking the French Alps, where he observed the transition from winter into spring. His dreamlike paintings blend figures, animals, and landscapes, exploring memory, light, nature, and the shifting boundary between reality and fiction. D'Anselmi holds an MFA from the New York Studio School and is represented by Thierry Goldberg Gallery in New York.
The exhibition matters because it marks a significant development in D'Anselmi's practice, shaped by a period of quiet observation in an unfamiliar alpine environment. The work reflects on painting as a silent language and confronts abstract ideas of scale and perception. Fabienne Levy, a Swiss gallery with locations in Lausanne, Geneva, and Zurich, is known for supporting socially engaged contemporary art, making this show a notable addition to its curatorial program.
