… In MyOwnGallery, the concept art space of Superstudio Più, in Via Tortona 27, in Milan. From 20 to 25 October Francesca Agrati offers a selection of 25 unpublished works, collected under this title, deliberately almost an oxymoron, created from 2018 to today. Only portraits, and all of them female, which define a sort of pop-phantasmagoric-surreal journey, entrusted to the observer to engage in the research and discovery of identity, personality and varied humanity. Even with irony and the ability/will to play down.

In 2009/2010 the Taliban in Afghanistan seemed a danger removed, and the more evolved women were included in a new society where they could study, work, move and dress as they wished. The obscurantism of the burqa seemed to be buried. Forever. Instead… 

The cover of DRepubblica of February the 5th dramatically invites us not to forget what is happening now, after the first indignant reactions of the West. With the usual prophetic eye that looks beyond the present, through the lens of art, ten years ago Flavio Lucchini reflected on that burqa heritage of the past...

An original initiative by Oblong, the gallery recently opened in Forte dei Marmi and Dubai as a bridge between Italy and the Middle East, asked ten of the artists represented, including Flavio Lucchini, to specifically create a unique about "Thirty for Thirty" dimension work, that is also a tangible thought about what Covid-19 left us. Opening Saturday August 8 in Forte dei Marmi.

Numerology is said to be infallible. Three is a golden number, sacred, which encloses the extraordinary powers of energy, creativity, the ability to regenerate and grow. And Three are the sides of the triangle, a geometric figure with ancient meanings, a metaphor for the encounter between Heaven, Earth and Man.From the Mayan civilization to the symbolic universes closest to us, the references recur frequently and often return analogous, even if in disparate places and contexts. Must such ancient wisdom be linked today to a contemporary art exhibition? Perhaps not. Or maybe yes, if we consider the art and the gesture that underlies it, bearers of timeless values...

After the exhibition in MyOwnGallery in 2019 that marks his return in Italy after 30 years, the Korean artist Kim Seung Hwan is designing a great installation of monumental sculptures and a furniture collection that we will see during Milan Design Week 2021, at the Superdesign Show which continues its museum-like contaminations. From August 22, however, a new solo show in Udine.

You began your artistic career in the 90’s, in Pietrasanta. You won the Critic Award during the very first edition of MiArt. How has this all-Italian beginning influenced you?
I was inspired and influenced by the works of modern Italian sculptors. While I was working in the atelier in Pietrasanta, I met several International and Italian artists and I am pleased to have seen some of the finest marble works. I was also excited about thinking of Michelangelo working in the same place as me...

In the postcovid-19 world nothing will be as before, it's said. And certainly myths and values that have so far been overwhelmed by ephemeral and often inconsistent characters and trends that occupy the covers of magazines and the pages of newspapers will return to the surface. A revolution that has just begun.

We need competence, commitment, quality against appearance, superficiality, improvisation, the supposed talents from Talents Show. We need people who know how to take responsibility for bringing the world to a saving, better horizon. Of new heroes that cloud false myths. To better know and appreciate doctors, scientists, researchers, engineers, anthropologists, chemists, physicists, architects, urban planners, computer scientists, artists who can take us out of the ford and give us back security...

Artist, sculptor, cultural businessman, and over the last ten years, designer, it is hard to define Kim Seung Hwan in only one discipline. “Organismi & Harmonie” presents a hybrid collection between sculpture and design, thus defining the new aesthetic direction taken by the artist. The exhibition curated by Martina Corgnati, highlights artifices and nature, modernism and archaism that reconnect to the geometric and mathematical laws and underlines the impeccable control by Korean sculptor of plastic materials, from bronze to polystyrene up to stone. Kim Seung Hwan begins his career in the nineties at Pietrasanta where he attends the Carrara Accademy, and then continue his journey in Asia. In 2008, together with his wife Lanki Jung, he founded, on the outskirts of Seoul, the large centre for contemporary art Dio Art Center that..

The contemporary art museum that contains art work of the private collection of Miucia Prada and Patrizio Bertelli has just opened. The beautiful, candid, disquieting “Torre” designed by Rem Khoolaas. The construction completed the artistic offer of Fondazione Prada in Milan placing a futuristic architecture in the complex of old and new buildings dedicated to contemporary art, already an unmissable destination of the cultural Milan. The floors of the tower have irregular heights, from 2,7 meters of the first floor up to 8 of the upper level and containing collections of different origins and inspirations. Every space overlooks to a breath-taking glass wall hunched forwards on emptiness, on an original panorama of the Milanese suburb that extends up the city’s limits. The most admired space, an unmissable fairy-tale, the enormous ..
