Piero Fogliati's Light and Sound Utopia at Lorenzelli Arte in Milan

In Milan, there's an exhibition titled 'Luce e suono. L’utopia di Piero Fogliati' at Lorenzelli Arte, celebrating the Italian artist Piero Fogliati, who lived from 1930 in Canelli to 2016 in Turin. Curators Roberto Borghi and Matteo Lorenzelli put together around thirty pieces along with various sketches, highlighting Fogliati’s significant yet often overlooked contributions to kinetic sound and light art. His notable works include Liquimofono (1965) and Anemofono (1971), which he called 'bachelor machines,' made from materials like funnels and rotors. Fogliati aimed to capture the essence of nature's sounds and colors. His whimsical drawings, like 'Strumenti per spazzolare i fantasmi' (2005), delve into imaginative and playful themes.
