Fabio Viale, 2013 and 2014-
Read along
Fabio Viale’s work is particularly fascinating because he reinterprets classical sculpture from a contemporary perspective. His oeuvre encompasses a range of different types of works and combines traditional sculptural techniques with highly distinctive surface treatments, resulting in a dynamic dialogue between past and present.
In this room, Viale displays seemingly weightless paper aeroplanes made of white marble. The discrepancy between optical illusion and material reality is further heightened by the magnification of the simple object to monumental size.
