Luca Trevisani

Curator Renate Wiehager provides us with the essential pointer regarding the
working method of Luca Trevisani by bringing Le Corbusier into play, whose
amorphous architectures had been inspired by artifacts found at the boundary
between nature and culture. An extensive overview of young Italian artist Luca
Trevisani's work is documented for the first time, featuring over four hundred
reproductions. Trevisani, born in Verona (1979), working in Berlin and Bologna,
creates an associatively-gathered world from multiple sources including graphic
and product design, cultivation processes, scientific maps, literature, arts and
crafts techniques, art history, elements of nature, photos and more. His sculptures
and paintings are made with natural as well as manufactured materials (branches,
feathers and string, metal bars among much else) and suggest the fragility of
tactile experiences while insisting on the idea that the external world is
understood only through direct experience. Essays by Renate Wiehager, Andrea
Cortellessa and Luca Lo Pinto.
