NEXT BEAUTY

Evolution and sensoriality of matter.

Exhibition of materials curated by Baolab.

Beauty and its relationship with time.

Umberto Eco says that “Beauty has never been something absolute and immutable but has taken on different faces according to historical period and country.”

What he calls the “fundamental aesthetic models” are usually associated with specific historical periods but often short circuits are created that, by challenging the idea of absolute and shared beauty, become prodromal of new syntheses and creative expressions.

ART by Raffaele Salvoldi

The Imaginary City, by Raffaele Salvoldi, WoodArc project.

Tens of thousands of wooden bricks, dry-stacked one on top of the other by the hands of the artist who, without design, creates a set of imaginary buildings, the main one of which will be between 8-9 m high. Finally, it will be the public itself, at the end of the exhibition, who will demolish each structure.
