I decided to touch the meat, smell; working with color, blood, fruit. Now these Senses are awakened by technology, and already at the time I too have used technologies, documenting my Performances with video, or using synthesizers in my music. The future is going towards these solutions, virtuality will be the new development... I want technology in Art. Hermann Nitsch

12.10.2024–05.07.2025

Perché puntare l’attenzione sui ritratti in un’epoca in cui è facile, grazie alle moderne tecnologie, offrire immagini di sé in grado di rappresentare emozioni e situazioni differenti? Perché continuare a cercare di cogliere sentimenti e sensazioni attraverso una raffigurazione? E, soprattutto, cosa si intende oggi con ritratto? Queste sono le domande da cui parte questo nuovo progetto espositivo, che si focalizza sul ritratto e sulla sua evoluzione, partendo dal presupposto che lo stesso non è solo esperienza figurativa ma, in particolar modo nella contemporaneità, anche astratta.

Palazzo Bellini

The historic neoclassical building in the centre of Oleggio has been returned to its original splendour thanks to an extensive renovation, conservation, and restoration project commissioned by Laura and Luigi Giordano and directed by architect Lorenzo Bini - Studio Binocle. This operation returns a piece of the town’s history to its citizens – Palazzo Bellini today becomes SPA | Spazio Per Arte (space for art).
