In the collection “Abstractism of the origins” ( “Astrattismo delle origini” ), Andrea Benetti establishes a dialogue between prehistoric cave painting and contemporary art, revealing how the seeds of abstraction, symbolism, and figuration were already present in humanity’s earliest artistic expressions. His works, rich in signs and symbols, create a bridge between the origins of visual language and the digital age, where icons dominate communication. In this return to the primal roots of art, Benetti uncovers a profound continuity: art as a symbolic construction, able to transcend time and renew itself without ever losing touch with its beginnings.
