Da Vicino

“Up close, no one is normal,” said Franco Basaglia, the psychiatrist whose thinking and commitment led, half a century ago, to the closure of psychiatric asylums. With the exhibition “Da Vicino”, the artist Andrea Pinchi dedicates to him a cycle of abstract works in which the use of elastic cords, more or less stretched, refers to the functioning of the nervous system. As in a perfectly tuned instrument, the right tension is the basis of the harmony of the psyche.

On 29 March the gallery is pleased to present the world premiere of “Niemand ist Normal” (“No One Is Normal”), a piece composed especially by Michael Anklin, a renowned Swiss composer of electronic music and experimental sound art.
