Rossi & Rossi is pleased to present Luce Iconica, a solo exhibition by Italian artist Massimo Antonaci (b. 1958). On view from 6 December 2025 through 21 February 2026, the presentation marks his third solo project with the gallery.
The Italian word ‘luce’ translates to ‘light’, and the light revered in the works of Antonaci is absolute and pure. Luce Iconicahighlights a series of works in gold, silver and white, all veiled by glass. Adhering to a 60 by 60 cm compositional guide, the artist has created virtual grids, where mental images intersect with space. In Cornerstone (2019), a slightly tilted glass pane rests atop a square of white paint, inviting viewers to look beyond the surface and see what the element truly embodies. As Antonaci noted in the catalogue from his 2019 retrospective at Rossi & Rossi Hong Kong, ‘When the reflection of consciousness no longer projects any image, the mental substance manifests itself in its own nature, which is colourless’. Here, the glass is a window that frames human sight as a medium of manifestation.
