    Francesco Arena

    Statua (... as head), 2025
    Francesco Arena starts from the history, in particular from the political and social facts that characterised the recent past. Episodes, too many times hidden or hushed up, that in the works by Francesco Arena gain a new life thanks to the synthetic and metaphorical forms of his sculptures.

    Giorgio Andreotta Calò has been making Clessidre [Hourglasses] series of sculptures with variations and evolutions since 1999. These works feature some of the core references and practices of his artistic research. From a formal point of view, each Clessidra is generated from a bronze reproduction of a fragment of briccola, a type of wooden pole typically used in the Venice lagoon to mark the boundaries of a canal or to moor boats, as well as element that characterises the urban genesis of the city.

  • LABINAC, Pino (model 2), 2019-2025

    LABINAC

    Pino (model 2), 2019-2025

    LABINAC is a design collective founded in 2018 by Maria Thereza Alves, Jimmie Durham and Kai-Morten Vollmer, with the dual purpose of designing and making objects (furniture, chandeliers, and other elements of interior design) and supporting the design works of Indigenous peoples in Latin America, of which the artists have been staunch defenders throughout their lives.

  • Renato Leotta, Gita, 2026

    Renato Leotta

    Gita, 2026

    In Gita, the “barely sketched car” becomes an archetype of travel, a trace of presence rather than a depiction of an object. It is an imprint, a residual image, as if the landscape itself had recorded the passage of a fleeting moment — the journey reduced to a gesture, a contour softened by time. The car’s form, only faintly emerging from the material surface, mirrors Leotta’s interest in the way landscapes and objects absorb memory and emotion, becoming palimpsests of lived experience.

  • Cinthia Marcelle, Ao povo da rua [o the people of the street] (Ladainhas), 2026

    Cinthia Marcelle

    Ao povo da rua [o the people of the street] (Ladainhas), 2026
    Cinthia Marcelle’s work is inspired by the chaos and turmoil of possibilities which can be found in everyday life. She tries to gain a distance from this chaos and reorganise the disorder formally. Her actions create situations that challenge our notions of conventional behaviour by introducing humorous coincidences and connections.

  • Pedro Cabrita Reis, London Angles #2, 2014

    Pedro Cabrita Reis

    London Angles #2, 2014
    "London Angles" is a series of sculptures made of a led tube and aluminium. The angular shape refers to the architecture of London, which according to the artist is a city made of angles. The element of the fluorescent light recalls the natural light, often missed in contemporary art spaces.
  • Pedro Cabrita Reis, Landscapes 2020 (series III) #4, 2020

    Landscapes 2020 (series III) #4, 2020
    Among Pedro Cabrita Reis’s key elements are heavy steel bars and found windows and doors frames. The concept of windows creates a direct relation between image and environment in a mechanism that employs the basic structures of the surrounding architecture. On the one hand, through the technical potentiality established in the making of the work, and on the other, carrying out a direct association with the light.

  • Gregor Schneider, Schwarzer Schatten mit Regen B (Black Shadow with Rain), 2010

    Gregor Schneider

    Schwarzer Schatten mit Regen B (Black Shadow with Rain), 2010

    Gregor Schneider created “windows that hold shadows” and were “meant to simulate rain,” as he described them. 

    As metaphors for the opening of a space, Schneider’s windows become images of his closed and deprived world.

  • Gregor Schneider, Gooning 1, 2023

    Gooning 1, 2023

    Schneider suffered a heart attack in 2021 during the COVID pandemic. After a prolonged hospital stay and emergency surgery in Mönchengladbach-Rheydt, he processed this experience artistically — as he has done many times before — by creating a sculpture from his medication. On top of the medication he placed a cast of his hand in a state of masturbation.

     

    Bachelor machines, sexuality, and instinct repeatedly appear in Schneider’s works. For Schneider, they represent primal forces of artistic productivity.

  • Sandra Vásquez de la Horra, Filtros, 2020

    Sandra Vásquez de la Horra

    Filtros, 2020

    Sandra Vásquez de la Horra’s drawings are influenced by film, fairy tales and botanical and zoological textbooks, as well as from her personal background. Since 1997, the Artist finishes her drawings by dipping them in wax. This process gives her work a unique materiality and emphasises the pencil line with ambiguous depth. The traditions and myths of her Chilean origins and the influence of Latin-American magic-realist literature are essential in her artistic practice.
