Francesco Venezia, Nature exhibition

The first in a series of four events in which Maxxi Architettura intends to explore a new approach to the theme of the monographic exhibition. “ Francesco Venezia’s reflected space of water and light” inaugurates a complex programme including, in this initial phase, four architects each asked to address the same theme in a single museum space. The architect from Naples has prepared a path through his projects set into a space based on the presence of light and water, with rough surfaces in a conscious contrast with nature rather than an attempt to camouflage with it. In the months to come this will be followed by exhibitions by the architects of West 8, Alberto Campo Baeza and UnStudio.
