The Glass Builders #2. Sparkling like pyramids

The exhibition The Glass Builders #2. Sparkling like pyramids, an extensive solo exhibition by Daniele Maffeis, opens on Thursday, October 8, 2015. The solo show containing only new works by the artist, also opens the activities of Kunstverein (Milano) for the 2015/16 season and is curated by Kunstverein (Milano) and Alessandra Pioselli, with the extraordinary contribution by Japanese historian and researcher Takashi Sagishi.

The project, exhibition and publication focus on today’s glass architecture seen through a retrograde filter: the crystal-glass utopia that distinguished the expressionist architects who gathered around the figure of Bruno Taut (1880-1938).
