Stately, soaring, and ethereal projects can’t simply be neatly tucked away in your garage after they are exhibited.
That is especially true when the work is at the typical scale of Italian artist Edoardo Tresoldi, whose massive mesh sculptures wowed the privileged guests at Coachella a couple of years ago in Indio, California. Those Neoclassical and Baroque architectural ghosts transported the imaginations of attendees there, but now they physically have been transported to Rome. Given a second life in Parco dei Daini, Villa Borghese, the show will run this autumn until mid-December.
Calling the installation Etherea, Tresoldi has entered it into participation for “Back to Nature”, a new exhibition project curated by Costantino d’Orazio. The artist says the works have been redesigned and rearranged for the occasion and are meant to be part of a dialogue with the trees of Villa Borghese. It’s good to see these works in a new context and finding they have a similar character, still triumphant but more subdued perhaps.
