SPLASH – WATER (E)MOTION

FABRIZIO PLESSI
Galerie Barbara von Stechow
Dear friends of DIE GALERIE and
, our new exhibition, FABRIZIO PLESSI: SPLASH – WATER (E)MOTION, is now officially open! Fabrizio Plessi’s sudden death on August 23, 2026, came as a complete surprise to all of us and was a great shock. This makes this first posthumous tribute to the artist all the more dear to our hearts.
Last Wednesday’s opening reception was a tremendous success, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank our many guests for attending and for the stimulating conversations. Our special thanks go to the Italian Consul General, Mr. Massimo Darchini, for his insightful remarks about Fabrizio Plessi, his art, and its significance within the canon of art history.
Over the next few months, you’ll have the opportunity to experience Fabrizio Plessi’s captivating, contemplative works up close at DIE GALERIE . Don’t miss this museum-quality exhibition! We cordially invite you to visit our exhibition in person or via our virtual tour .
I’m looking everywhere for traces of Fabrizio; I’m looking for his scent; I’m looking for a note with a little love message; I’m looking for him among the objects scattered around the house. Above all, though, I’m searching for his genius, which had become part of my everyday life—something so natural that I accepted it without a second thought—in a fusion of art and life that was a single breath.
Nothing speaks more eloquently of his art, his vision, his dreams, and his obsessions than his writings.
Just a few lines to remember a man who never held back, who never took the easy way out, who lived his life with total dedication:
"Painting is physical; sculpture is even more physical;
In the digital world, the materiality of content in pixels is much closer to the mind, so that it becomes a form,
that opens unexpected doors for you.
When the light streams in through these doors,
I immerse myself in it and try to capture the radiance of the thought
"to take it in."
