La mostra alla galleria Genus offre una finestra su uno dei periodi creativi dell’artista, quello che negli anni ’60/’70 è stato caratterizzato dai Tappeti Natura . Piero Gilardi ha fatto della ricerca artistica e della sperimentazione, una costante del suo lungo cammino nell’arte.

His art has always been directed toward the man and his relationship with nature, anticipating many of the routes that are opening today in contemporary art.
