REMEMBERING CHEN ZHEN
Chen Zhen’s "FIELD OF SYNERGY” is a work that offers a beautiful landscape on which to examine and understand the cruxes of his philosophy, outlook and artistic practices. This viewing room presents not only Chen Zhen’s first impressions upon seeing the gallery but also his perceptions of the space, his philosophical approach to managing the space and the realization of a work that is an insight not only into Chen Zhen’s personal story but also a tool with which we can understand what the artist called Transexperience, a new discourse that takes into account the spiritual, human, technological, material and immaterial worlds.

DANIEL BUREN PRESENTS "UNA COSA TIRA L'ALTRA"
Daniel Buren’s “Una cosa tira l’altra” is a vast structure that filled the ex-theatre cinema space of Galleria Continua in 2015 for the solo show, “Una cosa tira l'altra, lavori in situ e situati, 1965-2015”. The in situ work, made from scaffolding and Buren’s signature vertical stripes, allowed for new perspectives and view points from which to observe the surrounding architecture as well as works by other artists selected for the exhibition. Aerial walkways brought the visitor to different heights and levels and offered natural culmination and meeting points, transforming the experience into one of connection between art and people.

MICHELANGELO PISTOLETTO PRESENTS "THE CUBIC METER OF INFINITY IN A MIRRORING CUBE" THROUGH THE HISTORY OF ART
In 'Omnitheism and Democracy' Michelangelo Pistoletto said: "The Cubic Meter of Infinity, was conceived by me in 1966. With this work, art becomes a catalyst of all the meanings related to cultures of the present, both religious and not.
The Cubic Meter of Infinity is a physical object that contains the verified phenomenon of the immeasurably infinite. A multiconfessional place exists in reality too and has been handed down to us by history. It is the city of Jerusalem, but it lacks a symbol proposed by art, like The Cubic Meter of Infinity, that might stimulate the attainment of a balance between its political and religious conflicts, which have ruinous consequences for the world as a whole."
