World's First Information Design Gallery Opens in Turin

Wild Mazzini – data art gallery, the world's first gallery dedicated to information design, opens in Turin on April 20, 2018. Located at Via Mazzini in the city center, the 25-square-meter space was formerly a bicycle workshop. The gallery is run by Clemente Adami, Federica Biasio, and Davide Fuschi of the cultural association NFNG. They cite Giorgia Lupi's 2017 'Data humanism' manifesto as a key inspiration. The inaugural season, titled 'Prospettiva Italia,' features four exhibitions: Valentina D’Efilippo's 'OddityViz' (April 20, coinciding with Record Store Day 2018), exploring David Bowie's 'Space Oddity'; Adriano Attus's 'Numerage&Neometrie' (May 10), part of the OFF program of the Salone Internazionale del Libro di Torino; Federica Fragapane's works (from June 9), previously published in La Lettura; and Valerio Pellegrini's 'Minerva' (July), analyzing Immanuel Kant's lexicon. The gallery aims to present works that visualize social, cultural, economic, environmental, and scientific phenomena while preserving complexity.
