Edoardo Tresoldi's Documentary Exhibition at Fondazione Zoli
Fondazione Zoli in Forlì hosts a documentary exhibition on Edoardo Tresoldi (born 1987 in Cambiago), curated by new director Nadia Stefanel. The show features photographs by Roberto Conte and video installations that immerse viewers in the creation process. It begins with the backstage of Tresoldi's cube temple in Singapore, a temporary installation in an industrial loft that played with light and transparency. The exhibition also documents his permanent work at the Basilica di Siponto, which earned him the Medaglia d'Oro dell'Architettura Italiana – Premio Speciale alla Committenza 2018. Through sketches, wire mesh fragments, and videos, it shows how Tresoldi reinterpreted early Christian basilica architecture without archaeological reconstruction, using chicken wire—a material he had used since 2016—to create a luminous, suggestive presence. This project led to his international rise and the formation of a company of under-30 assistants for monumental architectural works.
