WORKS MADE WITH PALEOLITHIC MATERIAL

The cycle of works by Andrea Benetti, which uses archaeological material dating back to the Paleolithic, was born from a collaboration of the Maestro with the University of Ferrara and with the Department of Arts of the University of Bologna, for the creation of the exhibition, presented in first national in 2015, at the Chamber of Deputies. For the project, the Department of Humanities of the University of Ferrara, in particular "prehistoric archeology", supplied prehistoric material to Benetti (ocher, coal, earth and sediments from washing the finds) dating back to the level of the Paleolithic excavations. The material was used by Benetti to create the works on a travertine base on canvas, which emulates the rock of the cave.
