Exhibition

An exhibition based on Italo Calvino’s novel “Invisible Cities” that provides an opportunity to reflect on the identity of cities through the language of magic realism…a city is not only a complex physical form created by planners and architects, it is also a network of memories, desires and stories. Five stories selected from “Invisible Cities” are interpreted by five artists: Alessia Avellino, Gerry Judah, Mimi Mollica, Michaela Nettell and Robin Scott, who translate them into art installations to continue the exploration of the meaning of the City through metaphor. The audience can interpret the environment at three levels: through Calvino’s texts, through the artists’ work, and through the magnificent view of the city offered by the location of the exhibition at the top of the Oxo Tower.
