Chiara Vellini's 'Interiors' Confronts Domestic Violence at Biennale Colore Magenta 2026

exhibition · 2026-10-10

At Casa Giacobbe in Magenta, Chiara Vellini unveils 'Interiors,' a thought-provoking exhibition that tackles domestic violence through the lenses of architectural space and psychology, as part of the Biennale Colore Magenta 2026. Curated by Fortunato D'Amico, the show, titled 'La treccia e gli equilibri dinamici. Artisti per la Pace Preventiva,' is set in a location marked by bullet holes from the 1859 Battle of Magenta. Vellini reimagines domestic environments into landscapes of discomfort, where architecture embodies emotional experiences. In partnership with Quadruslight, illuminated installations uncover layers and color vibrations. The project resonates with Michelangelo Pistoletto's concept of Preventative Peace and features works by Pistoletto, Ercole Pignatelli, Angelo Bonello, Daniela Pellegrini, and Grazia Simeone, reflecting on personal oppression against the backdrop of historical warfare.
