Rome Art Week. 23-27 oct 2023 In one of the most prestigious historic seventeenth-century residences in Rome, Villa Altieri, Rome Art Week proposes, for its eighth edition, the project Symbolisms of Vision, curated by Massimo Scaringella, Roberta Melasecca and Fabio Milani: a representative exhibition that puts art and architecture in dialogue, in a perfect union between contemporary visions from different areas and the history and memory of the Eternal City. Simbolismi della visione is centered, therefore, on a double confrontation: in fact, researches of a plurality of artists from different cultures and worlds will be presented - proposing sometimes similar, sometimes opposite symbologies and landscapes - which must necessarily relate to a place that preserves the imprints of a not too distant past and that evokesvisions and images of a Rome transformed by the continuous stratifications and urban, architectural and artistic interventions.

Try, Fail, and Succeed: Back in 1386 Construction work on the Duomo of Milan probably began in 1386. The construction site soon became a lively space for the exchange of the most diverse ideas, experiences, and skills from workers coming from all over the continent. This made the Duomo a crossroads of peoples and cultures. Now, the Duomo of Milan is one of the most impressive Gothic cathedrals in the world, with over 3,400 statues. But there is something you cannot see, unless you visit the museum next to the Duomo: Numerous statues that were simply not good enough to be part of the final product. However, these attempts and failures were a necessary part of the ultimate success story. Initiative, Persistence, and Resilience, reflections of our emotional intelligence, are crucial for realizing any grand idea. The architects and sculptors of the Duomo certainly possessed these qualities. #emotionalintelligence #Milan Cathedral (Duomo di Milano)

#venicebiennale2023 Walking on a giant floor plan of the #swisspavilion (Bruno Giacometti) and the #venezuelanpavillion ( Carlo Scarpa) in the #swisspavilion2023 itself. 'Neighbours' by Karin Sander and Philip Ursprung They say this: “The Swiss and Venezuelan pavilions form a whole of extraordinary architectural and sculptural quality. Due to their representative function, however, they are conceived as distinct units and therefore also arranged accordingly. We therefore sought to rethink the functions of the two pavilions and their surrounding environment and to overcome their respective boundaries through artistic means. In this way we question both spatial, cultural and political demarcations and the conventions of national representation. With a utopian gesture, we contrast the place with a poetic reality that for a moment gives way to a new perspective”. Ps: they dismantled the wall that divided the two pavilions.
