Alberto Biasi's Environmental Works Revived at Palazzo Pretorio
Alberto Biasi's 'spazi-ambiente' are on display at Palazzo Pretorio in Cittadella until November 20, 2016. The exhibition, curated by Guido Bartorelli, revives works from the 1960s, including the 'Mostra chiusa' (1960) and 'Mostra del Pane' (1961), reconstructed from documentary traces. New works like 'Spazio Elastico' are realized for the first time, transforming from model to immersive environment. Restored pieces such as 'Orizzontale Ellebi' and 'Eco' invite viewer interaction. The exhibition emphasizes the social and playful aspects of art, moving beyond perceptual illusion.
