SAVE THE DATE | April 16 – 21
MILAN – FUORISALONE 2024
Metamorphosis will be open to the public from April 16 to 21, 2024 at the Santa Sofia 27 showroom during the Salone del Mobile in Milan.
On April 16 there will be an invitation-only panel discussion with Ventana founder Jeremy Hochman, artist Marco Gallotta, architect Vittorio Grassi and artificial intelligence scientist Gabriele Di Cerbo. They will talk about how art, artificial intelligence, technology and design can come together and how they can bring metamorphosis to the world we know.
Ever since our prehistoric predecessors created their first works of art on Lascaux cave walls, art has always been about metamorphosis: how we see, how we change, how we live, and how we adapt to the world around us.
We asked ourselves: how can technology and architecture come together? How can art, artificial intelligence, interior design, screens, visual technology and simple human creativity lead to metamorphosis? By changing not only the way we see the world, but also the way we live, share, create and respond to it.
Metamorphosis, sponsored by VENTANA manufacturer of the world’s thinnest, brightest and most adaptable modular video displays, is an installation that combines art, science, visual technology and architecture. As a world leader in display technology, Ventana is constantly exploring what the future will look like and how we can make it work better.
Metamorphosis was created by New York-based Italian artist Marco Gallotta. He is a world-renowned artist who modernizes the ancient practice of origami. Gallotta experiments with nontraditional elements and observes how each influences the other to create something never seen before.
For Metamorphosis, Gallotta collaborated with artificial intelligence scientists. Together, they capture the metamorphosis that occurs when art and technology learn and improve each other.
