Inauguration Progetto Genesi. Arte e Diritti Umani.

Horti inaugurated the exhibition “Progetto Genesi. Arte e Diritti Umani” open until Sunday, June 2.

Pavia, thanks to the support of the Fondazione Banca del Monte di Lombardia, hosts a stage of the Genesi Association's traveling initiative. The exhibition stems from the belief that contemporary art can take on the role of ambassador of human rights. In line with the mission of the Horti, where natural habitats, art and ethics are intertwined, the theme will be environmental protection.

 

The exhibition is open Tuesday through Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Last admission at 5:30 p.m.

The guided tours are on Saturday and Sunday at 4 p.m. Pre-booking is not required. For more information, write to info@horti.it

Inauguration Sergio Alberti, Traccia vegetale interrotta

Sergio Alberti presents Traccia vegetale interrotta, a work that perfectly synthesises the exploration of the material stratification of the landscape, which translates into the intuition of the relationship between sculptural form and natural suggestion, between rigour and metamorphosis, between abstraction and figuration.

Study
center

Horti includes a Study Centre, coordinated by Prof. Clelia Martignoni, which aims to build, through various initiatives and meetings, interdisciplinary dialogues between different knowledge and perspectives on the complex, 'perennial' and topical theme of living. These initiatives are also aimed at enhancing the third mission activity and the College's relationship with the territory, in order to foster new experiences of training, education, reflection, inclusion and social aggregation, under the banner of connecting knowledge in rigorous inventive forms, with the intention of bringing together salient aspects and moments of ancient, modern and contemporary culture.

Different disciplines are called upon in a diachronic and synchronic dialogue: literature, art, history of ideas and thought, anthropology, psychology, theology, history, law, science and technology, in the construction of a Triennial centred on a unifying theme that brings together several perspectives, several periods, several cultures, several approaches: a 'knowledge laboratory' that creates connections of knowledge and induces critical visions and new awareness.
