Thought-provoking contemporary art exhibition
From 2nd February to 3rd April, the exhibition is curated by art critic and independent curator Simone Menegoi, assisted by Cristiano Raimondi, and contains work by 25 contemporary artists. Using a "form of narrative decor which tells the story of a planet that has become uninhabitable for reasons unknown", visitors are prompted to reflect on the traces that our civilisation will leave behind.
The exhibition includes photographs and videos of environmental disasters and economic collapse, as well as sculptures created from every day waste material. A 250 page bilingual accompanying publication is available, and the private viewing will be attended by Italian artist Linda Fregni Nagler performing "Things that death cannot Destroy (Part 5- The Silence) 2012".
