FLOWERS ON DISPLAY

On the occasion of "Orticola", the traditional Milanese event dedicated to botany, and of the Milan Flower Week, Flavio Lucchini also offers the city a view of its flowers, in the Art Box of the hub at Via Tortona 27. Here are his unexpected, large “Flowers”: original, unreal, sketched, in reinforced plaster or resin. Some of them delicate and sweet colors like those of marshmellows. But the most part lack color, "because you can't compete with nature", because "their purity and beauty is forever". And so, the "Flowers" remain candid and smile at passers-by, inviting them to discover also the FLA, Superstudio's Museum where other works and flowers are on display. The artist's vision of the floral world recalls what the Belgian author Maurice Maeterlinck, Nobel Prize for Literature in 1911, expressed in his work "The intelligence of flowers", dated 1907: "The plant world that seems so peaceful, where everything appears acceptance, silence, obedience, is on the contrary the place where the revolt against destiny is the most vehement and the most stubborn."
