The Sun behind the Clouds

This post comes to you from Cultura21

A meditation about the sky by Ettore Favini and He-He

Parco Arte ViventeÂ´s (PAV) 2012 art program, dedicated to theÂ Ethos of the living,Â is being concluded with the dual-person showÂ The Sun behind the CloudsbyÂ Ettore FaviniÂ and the Anglo-German duoÂ He-He(Helen Evans, UK and Heiko Hansen, D).

The exhibition, curated byÂ Claudio Cravero, proposes a new vision of the sun (Favini) and the clouds (He-He), two natural phenomena explored as issues of a both aesthetic and ethical meditation, but also acting on the stage of a even more careless relationship between man and world.

From the 31th October 2012 till the 13th January 2013 the different artworks and installations can be seen at the living art park in Turin, Italy.
