TDM5: GRAFICA ITALIANA
MILAN_2012 - invited
It takes wisdom and cunningness to construct a sacred place for the Muses: Heaven & Earth must be connected along an intangible pathway of the kind created by Iris and then book must be envisaged big enough to enclose the history of the world divided up into nine sections, the same number as the inspiring daughters of Zeus and Memory. Protecting the arts and sciences in our times is no mean feat, so for this fifth edition of the Triennale Design Museum it has taken plenty of human endeavour alongside the intervention of the Muses. Attempting to bring together a Newtonian approach, the scientific side of curatorship, with my own personal passion for Goethe’s sentimental approach to the issue of colour. Using colour as an authentic graphic hypertext to support material, which, nevertheless, require more complex codes in order to be fully interpreted. Drawing a rainbow to connect Heaven and Earth in that constant state of human balance.
