Alexander Tillegreen's 'The Unsweep Paradox' at FuturDome, Milan
Danish artist Alexander Tillegreen, born in 1991 in Copenhagen, is showcasing his inaugural solo exhibition in Italy, titled 'The Unsweep Paradox,' at FuturDome, located at Via Paisiello 6 in Milan. This exhibition occupies four levels of the historic venue and features works produced during a three-month residency at the International Institute of Futurism Studies (Isisuf). Curated by Atto Belloli Ardessi, the exhibition also includes graphic art and sculptures by Brazilian artist Mary Vieira (1927-2001) on the second floor. Notable pieces are 'Correspondence (before thought),' a sound installation, and 'Suspended Loop (gathering),' which utilizes Futurist objects. Additionally, 'A+A (five phantom streams for FuturDome)' and 'Situated State (absorption and shift)' are part of the display. Tillegreen returned for a second residency from April to May for a closing concert.
