About EPICA

For two weeks, the Church of San Lorenzo in Gussago hosts "EPICA – In the Heart of Myth", a solo exhibition by painter Marco Furri. The works, blending great Italian and international figurative tradition with contemporary sensibility, explore mythological figures and imaginative suggestions. Curated by Romano Mazzola, the exhibition offers an intense and evocative journey into the heart of Franciacorta, in one of the most fascinating spaces in the Municipality of Gussago.

Myth According to Marco Furri

The exhibition "EPICA – In the Heart of Myth" brings the pictorial universe of Marco Furri to Gussago, in the province of Brescia. The artist operates within the great Italian and international figurative tradition, proposing an expressive language suspended between the call of myth and contemporary sensibility. His canvases give form to mythological figures and imaginative suggestions, in a continuous dialogue between past and present.

The Church of San Lorenzo as a Setting

The exhibition is set up in the spaces of the Church of San Lorenzo, one of the most evocative locations in the Municipality of Gussago. The intimate and secluded architectural setting dialogues with the works, amplifying their evocative dimension: visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the heart of myth, amidst symbols, archetypes, and suspended atmospheres.

A Curated Exhibition

The exhibition is curated by Romano Mazzola, who guided the selection and arrangement of the works. The inauguration, in the presence of the artist, marks the opening of a journey that remains accessible for about two weeks, with free admission on weekends. A precious opportunity to engage with contemporary figurative art in a quality setting.

Culture in Franciacorta

For Gussago, the heart of Franciacorta, the EPICA exhibition confirms the town's vibrant cultural life, which complements its gastronomic and religious traditions with a significant artistic offering. As part of the Municipality's rich event calendar, the exhibition contributes to enhancing the historical spaces of the territory and bringing art into contact with the community.
