Hello STEEMIANS

This post is a review of the exciting exhibition we had in this summer in the month of July. The title of this exhibition was: Gaia Mother Tree from the Brasil artist Ernesto Nero . The location was in the old part of the main station of Zurich/Switzerland. What a incredible exhibition!

Over a week was the time of the construction of this installation. This installation was a dedication and cooperation with the HUNI KUIN a section of the population from the Amazonas in Brasil. It was the Beyeler Foundation from Basel/Switzerland the Organisator and sponsor. Through 4 weeks they organised concerts, yoga sessions, workshops, live performances and other stuffs. It was an amazing HAPPENING!

Ernetso Nero was born in Brasil in the Year of 64. He began with his carrier in Scotland in 1988. After this significant time he had many important exhibitions in New York, London Paris and etc.

Neto's work has been described as "beyond abstract minimalism". His installations are large, soft, biomorphic sculptures that fill an exhibition space that viewers can touch, poke, and walk on or through. They are made of white, stretchy material—amorphous forms stuffed with Styrofoam pellets or, on occasion, aromatic spices. In some installations, he has also used this material to create translucent scrims that transform the space's walls and floor. His sculptures can be regarded as expression of traditional abstract form, but in their interaction with the viewer, they work on another level as well. (text from the wikipedia)

If you had the chance to visit one of his exhibition, I suggest you to visit it. You will have an incredible emotion they will never forget. It was a spiritual and a emotional feeling:)

see you soon, cari saluti da @sanglia007
