A closer look at Agostino Rocco’s silent figures.

Faces that appear like fragments, suspended between presence and absence.

Through precise details, precious surfaces and references to ceramic traditions and ornamental languages, Rocco creates portraits that invite a slower and deeper gaze.

In “Tōhen”, these silent figures enter into dialogue with Japanese ceramics, creating a connection between material, memory and contemporary vision.

“Tōhen” is on view until July 4, 2026

A dialogue between two worlds.
A face, a fragment, a surface that holds memory.

In “Tōhen”, Agostino Rocco’s paintings meet Japanese ceramics in a dialogue between Italian contemporary art and centuries-old ceramic traditions.

The precious details, the ornamental patterns and the silent figures become traces of a shared reflection on beauty, time and transformation.
