exhibition · 2026-04-27

On October 13, 2023, Spazio Vitale, a fresh cultural venue located at Via Vitale 5 in Verona, will debut alongside the ArtVerona fair. This initiative seeks to redefine the interplay between technology and humanity, focusing on the significance of the body and emotional intelligence. The concept was developed during the pandemic by Davide Bonamini, Francesca Turco, and Francesco Varanini, with artistic direction provided by Domenico Quaranta. The site, previously a textile warehouse, has been transformed by architect Michele Marcazzan. Initially, only the ground floor will be accessible, with the basement set to open in 2024. The opening exhibition features Greek artist Theo Triantafyllidis's solo presentation, "Sisyphean Cycles," which includes four immersive digital simulations.
