The seductive verve of the artist is revealed in an exhibition that delights in paradoxes and contemporaneity. Between wonder and immersive journeys, aided by a setup that promises and maintains great attraction
From February 18, the Altinate San Gaetano Cultural Center in Padua hosts an exceptional exhibition aimed at presenting the greatest masterpieces of a fascinating artist, capable of transforming geometry and mathematics into art, through his tessellations, optical illusions, and his belonging to an empathetic and unforgettable globe.
An appointment absolutely not to be missed to discover (or rediscover) the unique work – which still inspires and surprises today – of an artist who has always performed outside the choir.
A fantastic journey to discover the entire path of the Dutch genius, from his beginnings to his travels in Italy and the Mediterranean, through the numerous techniques he explored throughout his life that made him a unique artist, making him one of the most sought after in the world.
Among the geometric paradoxes, metamorphoses, and reflective surfaces, there are also many educational devices, videos, and interactive installations that will allow adults and children to decode his work and its evolution towards abstraction, impossible perspectives, and the surprising representations of seemingly plausible worlds that are free from mere reality..
The pure and visionary talent of Escher has always been a milestone, as well as a true point of reference even years after his passing for figures such as architects, mathematicians, and scholars in search of a critical and culturally open, affable language. With his modern and contemporary influence echoing daily in design, pop culture, and cinema. Pleasantly contaminating a world where rules and standards are born to be artistically subverted.
