The Book

Seven appointments during one year to describe 22 years of research.

This is the aim of JBROCK: SETTE VARIAZIONI 2000-2022, the catalogue of the exhibition by the same name that shows the evolutions, during time and events, of the Ciccio, the iconic character that made JBROCK famous in Italy and abroad.

JBROCK and his friend and photographer Niccolo Berretta during 2022 – with the curator Giacomo Guidi for Contemporary Cluster – have placed the Ciccio around the city of Rome and started photographing people who pass by. Friends and strangers, famous and unknown, everyone want to have a shot by Niccolò Berretta with the Ciccio in the background. This happening was replaced in the most beautiful and significant place of the Eternal City, from the turistic Campo dè Fiori to the Skatepark, from the night place Ponte Milvio to the flea market of Portaportese.

The book contains also an intimate text by the artist and friend Lucamaleonte who chronicled their longtime friendship.

JBROCK: SETTE VARIAZIONI 2000-2022 is the book that, in 88 pages and more than 300 images, resume this amazing project. It is realized in ony 200 copies, each one numbered and signed by the artist on the cover.

Printed in Italy

“15 years ago only a few knew Ciccio, now Ciccio is Rome.
JB’s journey is the example of someone who believes in himself. He is stubborn enough to get what he wants. His work is proof that constancy and research pay off over time, and that quality can win, if you believe so firmly believe it”.
