Gaia Di Lorenzo and Pietro Librizzi

01 August 2018 — 31 August 2018

In August 2018, artists Gaia Di Lorenzo and Pietro Librizzi took over the gallery space to develop their long-standing dialogue. Works and materials will be brought together and presented in response to Italo Calvino’s Italian Folktales, read to them both as children by their mothers. Disparate items will be considered in relation to one another: materials, references, elements of architecture and narratives will combine to form a whole, in accordance with their shared logic. This process of gathering becomes the lens through which the text and its traditions are perceived and scrutinised: a history that unifies, divides, and now calls for new meanings.
