Third appointment with MILANO SCULTURA, the first art fair in Italy (with free admission) which exclusively investigates the language of the plastic arts, declined according to languages that range from more traditional techniques and materials – marble, ceramics and porcelain, bronze and other metals – up to multimedia installations, ready-mades, the evolution of public art.
A sign of continuity with the previous editions is the organizational staff made up of Ilaria Centola and Valerio Dehò, former director of Kunst Meran/o Arte, in the role of curator.
"Milano Scultura - says Dehò himself - renews its appointment and wants to consolidate itself on the national scene for its peculiarity".
To date, the galleries participating in Milano Scultura are: Galleria ESH, Milan; Après Coup, Milan; Die Mauer, Prato; Il Melograno, Livorno; Independent Artist, Milan; Casagallery, Bologna; San Giorgi, Laigueglia; Boga Foundation, Milan; Starte', Lugano; Made 4 Art, Milan; Shasar Gallery, Naples; Arte Intensive, Milan; Uncode, Milan.
MILANO SCULTURA enriches its offer to the public with various special projects which help to account for new national and international trends in the field of plastic arts.
Among these, we note the one created by Flavio Pellegrini in collaboration with CERN (Conseil européen pour la recherche nucléaire), entitled Nero, which will propose a series of wall sculptures in which the color black, due to its physical characteristics, absorbs all visible light and returns a perception devoid of any chromatic sensation, the collective Milano Scultura presents… curated by Valerio Dehò, which will be a showcase for emerging sculptors or again, the Limited section dedicated to large-scale works.
Also for 2017, MILANO SCULTURA will once again collaborate with the Brera Academy for a series of initiatives that will involve students and professors.
Among these, The matter of sculpture is an event which aims to highlight how Brera students come into contact, in their educational path, with different materials, from the most classic to the less conventional, and learn their morphologies and techniques. This year marble was chosen, which in the hands of these young artists is renewed and re-proposed with various interesting ideas.
