Gianni Lucchesi with Hangar per Giannoni & Santoni: Operae

Following the Fibonacci numbers – the golden ratio – the cubes are slightly rotated near the sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5 (whose sum is 12, like the of height of the work in meters). The sequence does not start from the base, but from the block on which man is seated. On the metaphorical level, what is built is supported by the man’s idea and not physically by the gravity that keeps it anchored to the ground.

“We need a revolution of the spirit to change and improve our future,” observes the artist. “Art, architecture and design have a fundamental part to play by creating new visions.”

Lucchesi developed the constructional solutions and aesthetic finishes of the surfaces of the cubes with Giannoni & Santoni. The artist modeled the resin sculpture with a spatula and patinated it with Poliart. The Filotto brand created the lighting of the work, while the Ingegneria e dintorni practice did the static calculations.
