  • DESCRIPTION

    In the splendid frame of the Cloister of the Church of San Marco in Brera, PLANIUM was part of the dOT - Design Outdoor Taste 2023, with the collaboration of VGCrea.
    After the 2022 installation with the success of the refined solutions in oxidized metal, Planium rediscovers a distinct dimension in which Materials are the interpreters.

    Metal is the protagonist of the set-up: ancient, durable and versatile, mankind has always worked and used it.

    The circular surfaces in brushed steel match the wood of the tables and coffee tables of NewLife, which produces contract furniture. Cosmo was born, on whose silver surface waxing, full and waning moons appear, obtained from artistic oxidation.
    All around, the Rubelli fabrics of the seats of the And system (design by Alan de la Coba) of NewLife pick up on the tones of the metal tops. Selected in the round versions, like satellites and planets, they are covered with the colors of copper, steel and brass; the fabrics are 100% recycled.
    In a decorative panel the lunar surface and the planets in space: Flow is designed by Donatella Nobilio and embellished with CALAMINE, STEEL, BRASS, COPPER. This creation was awarded the "Business for Art" prize at the 17th edition 2022/23 of Arte Laguna Prize Venice.

    Continuing on, you reach an elevated area, a scenario created by Maurizio Galante and Tal Lancman:
    A square space defined by a suspension of thin metal chains that welcome the visitor with their sound and their shimmer. At the center of the space, a family of luminous objects formed by a set of corroded and perforated metal elements, their texture which seems to be the result of a natural aging process creates a magical play of light and shadow.”

    The Shadow Light illuminating elements designed by the Galante-Lancman duo fall from above. With arched, spherical and ovoid shapes, the luminous works reflect an atmospheric light through inlaid ribs as if they were NATURAL and OXIDIZED BRASS laces.
    Below, the light descends on Flow by Donatella Nobilio, in the Coffee Table version and its planets in orbit. Once again metal combines with the solid wood of NewLife.

    Alongside a work in which matter and its experimentation return as in the spotlight, the desire to create strong emotions: Issiba designed by Matteo Tampone. OXIDIZED COPPER integrates into MIRROR STEEL, art and technology are expressed in parallel.

    For the artist, Planium has combined opaque, oxidized surfaces with reflective surfaces. OXIDATION now takes on a third dimension: from a flat surface, it rises and adds depth; fun to look for your own fragmented shape that appears in the details of him.

    Together with the mirroring monolith, Alisha Bergere of NewLife, elegant and refined, it shows off a sophisticated dress code: Sumi-Copper, a jacquard trwith an oriental taste that represents a landscape.
