Paolo Cavinato's 'Hidden Steps' at The Flat in Milan
Paolo Cavinato, born in Mantua in 1975, presents 'Hidden Steps' at The Flat – Massimo Carasi in Milan, on view until January 28, 2017. His work, influenced by Renaissance architects and Italo Calvino's poetics, explores an urban dimension suspended between sky and earth. Through material manipulation, line serves as both boundary and connection, reflecting the linearity of the polis as a space of architectural and civil organization. His bases metaphorically evoke a perspective of civil progress inspired by Platonic harmony, echoing Renaissance ideal cities. The exhibition blends past and future, with each work leading to the next, suggesting an evolving continuum of ideas.
