Stanza delle tazze, 1986 (1991)

8 elements: pigment, wax, vegetable dyes, gold, canvas, copper
64 x 100 cm each
A place to live with color
"This is the place, the room of cups
where the invitation to converse with the colors in the real
becomes artistic;
here emotionality placed
upon relative centres
suggesting circles,
preserved from gravity and in exclusive positions
cups, whose nature is the color as it is
so that the artist in the canvas—like a juggler—suspends and elevates
beyond the conventions of physics."
(Bruno Corà, Room of Cups, in Remo Salvadori. Divided attention, catalogue of the exhibition at Art Gallery of Ontario and Istituto Italiano di Cultura, Toronto, March 20-April 10, 1987, with texts by Germano Celant and Bruno Corà [Toronto-Rome: Art Gallery of Ontario-Istituto Italiano di Cultura-Edizioni Pieroni, 1987], n.p.) 
The reversal and splitting of the circle
"Tazza is a figure that stems from the reversal and splitting of the unity constituted by Tre cerchi in movimento simultaneo in the period 1982–1983. Three years went by before it was shown at the gallery of Mario Pieroni in 1986 as Stanza delle tazze."
(Remo Salvadori in conversation with Antonella Soldaini, Milan, 2022-2024)
