Alik Cavaliere's Post-Apocalyptic Vegetal Sculptures Take Over Six Milan Venues
An exhibition dedicated to Italian artist Alik Cavaliere, who passed away 20 years ago, is set to debut in Milan. The main installation, 'L'universo verde,' will be featured in the Sala delle Cariatidi at Palazzo Reale, leading into a garden filled with bronze sculptures derived from wax models. The showcase also includes pieces at Museo del Novecento, Palazzo Litta, and Gallerie d'Italia, featuring works from 1960 to 1976. Additionally, the Università Bocconi will host etchings created with Vincenzo Ferrari, while the Centro Cavaliere, located in his former studio, will serve as a permanent collection of his works.
