Love, Lightly Told
The Expressive Worlds of John Betti
TERAVARNA Art Gallery is proud to present Love, Lightly Told, a solo exhibition of works by Italian artist John Betti. Known for his fairy-tale charm and emotionally rich storytelling, Betti’s paintings dwell in the magical space between imagination and reality—where something has just happened, or is just about to.
With a bold and expressive hand, Betti paints with saturated colors and dynamic contrasts, orchestrating vibrant interactions between warm and cool tones. His recent works focus intently on the human face—capturing expressions, moods, and moments with an almost obsessive sensitivity. Each figure, each gaze, carries a narrative: some wistful, some humorous, some quietly aching.
Though playful in style, Betti’s works never stray far from the theme that unites them all—love. Whether through lovers, brides, animals, or solitary dreamers, his paintings whisper ironic, tender, and deeply human stories that linger long after the first glance.
Running from August 05 2025, Love, Lightly Told offers a window into John Betti’s ever-evolving emotional world—where color and character combine to reveal the many faces of affection, longing, and joy.
