The R E Welch Gallery is presenting an exhibition by Italian painter Franco Chiarani, the show is titled "Gestural Dynamism." The artwork will be showcased during the month of June. Cultural formation, artistic pedigree and spiritual content oscillating between the fantastic and visionary have always clearly indicated the expressionist nature of Chiarani's paintings.
