Isola Design District | SPAZIO PRIVATO #2 / Imperfettolab at Galleria Giovanni Bonelli

For Fuorisalone 2017, Galleria Giovanni Bonelli presents Spazio Privato #2 a site-specific installation project that makes a connection between Imperfettolab's design and contemporary art in a dialogue of mutual inspiration.

As in the previous edition, the combination of art and design aims to stimulate a reflection on the spaces that characterize the private sphere, particularly the interiors that enliven our daily lives and the various possibilities of living and interpreting them. "Private Space" is, by definition, where we meet with a few close friends to talk or for the pure pleasure of spending time together.
 

For this occasion the gallery houses Imperfettolab's design and selects a series of works by young artists and more established authors who, by exploiting the more heterogeneous materials, interact with elements of design in a continuum of visual stimuli and recall.

Imperfettolab proposes some iconic pieces of their collection and relates them in an opposing or synergistic way with the installations that normally inhabit this space.

Imperfettolab's furnishings develop their own language in the world of design, a collection of objects and furniture that retain an interest in the ability of plastic arts and handmade production. Nature has always been a guide for the creatives of Imperfettolab that, in their collection, don't imitate but interpret it, expressing a synthesis between nature and artifice; even in the purest abstraction, they are able to maintain a connection between land and its life cycles.

In the contamination between design and art at Spazio Privato #2 the embroidered canvases by Angelo Filomeno and painted slates by Massimo Pulini perfectly complement Imperfettolab's seats, the ceramics by Bertozzi&Casoni stand out on the tables while the works by Wim Delvoye, with their familiar forms, generate an exciting cognitive gap between vision and understanding.

ARTISTS:Agostino Arrivabene, Bertozzi&Casoni, Wim Delvoye, Angelo Filomeno, Giuseppe Gonella, Luigi Ontani, Massimo Pulini, Mimmo Rotella.
