The month of May is introduced by a foreshortening of Masseria Spina realized by Paola Margherita within the project Artist Residencies.

"I could define my stay at Masseria Spina like a small jump in time. Here human history is strictly connected with the natural one. Ancient forms of anthropisation coexist on the same site"

AUCTION AND ARTIST RESIDENCY EXHIBITION

The Artist Residencies project that enhances young figurative artists and the Italian territory, born out of the collaboration between Le Dimore del Quartetto, Fondazione Brivio Sforza and Galleria Rubin, comes to life. The works realized during the autumn of 2022 in the historic houses become the protagonists of a collective exhibition.

On Wednesday, May 10th at 6.30 pm, in the courtyard of Palazzo Brivio Sforza in Milan, the exhibition will be presented to the public together with the artists. During the evening, the works will be auctioned off pro bono by Cambi Casa d'Aste. Part of the proceeds for the artists will be used to finance scholarships for the next edition of the project.
In addition to the exhibition, there will be a short musical moment with Quartetto Goldberg.

From April 27th to May 9th, the works will also be viewable and optionable online on Cambi Casa d'Aste website and exhibited at CMC - Centro Culturale di Milano.

PLAYLIST OF THE MONTH

"The musicians of the Akhtamar offer a very fresh reading of the Debussy's work. Their playing is technically impeccable and musically very, very intense. [...] This recording connects us not only to beautiful music and beautiful playing. It connects us to the deep essence of life, where the search for balance and perfection brings us to what Dostojevski considered the
only real savior of the world pure beauty."

Enjoyed,
