Ocean of visual enchantment
33 Contemporary Gallery in Chicago is pleased to announce the Solo Exhibition of
Italian based artist Brigitta Rossetti titled La Flor Que Yo Esperaba. This anticipated
exhibition presents an entire new body of work created for her first solo exhibition at 33
Contemporary Gallery.
La Flor Que Yo Esperaba reflects Rossetti’s latest exploration into an intimate journey of
reflection and personal rediscovery. Derived from nature and inspired by Pablo Neruda’s
poetry, these abstract works subtly invite the viewer to immerse himself/herself into an
emotional ocean of visual enchantment and delight. Rossetti’s recent monochromatic
works, just as Nerudas’ poetry, are charged with passion, emotion, love and humanity.
They dwell in the verge of despair and peril while elevating the beauty and romance of
our human nature.
Rossetti’s exquisite textures and purple-toned organic forms evoke floral motifs that appear
to defy gravity as they coexist within subtle areas of seemingly empty space. It is in such
environment of quietness and distress that Rossetti’s visual poetry embodies the emotional
charge of life’s own journeys. La Flor Que Yo Esperaba, which translates into The Flower
That I Was Waiting For emerges as an exhibition charged with personal meaning, intimate
passion and positive energy. Through this exhibition, Rossetti’s creative flower appears to
already be here.
Junto al mar en otoño,
tu risa debe alzar
su cascada de espuma,
y en primavera, amor,
quiero tu risa como
la flor que yo esperaba,
la flor azul, la rosa
de mi patria sonora.
– Pablo Neruda

Chicago: a succession of paper flowers, almost like a work by Warhol, giving us a glimpse of the
