Giorgio Andreotta Calò | Città di Milano, 2020
AVAILABLE AT THE BOOKSHOP AND UPON REQUEST
Contact print on Baritata Ilford FB1K paper, 40,5 x 30 cm. Edition of 20 signed and numbered copies + 4 A.P.
Created for his solo exhibition at Pirelli HangarBicocca, the limited edition Città di Milano by Giorgio Andreotta Calò has its origins in the process of making the work Città di Milano (2019). The latter was a majestic, analogic pin-hole print realized by the artist by transforming the thirty-first floor of the Pirelli Tower into a gigantic camera obscura, in which the negative image of the city was impressed directly onto photographic paper. Starting from one of the test prints made in the camera obscura, the limited edition is the result of the transposition of the photographic print from negative to positive by means of a process of inversion by direct contact. Andreotta Calò uses this method to further overturn the image and our vision between the sky and the volume of the buildings, which come together and merge on the horizon. This expands the boundary between what lays in the depths and what emerges, making it even more ambiguous. The limited edition is part of a long-term research project that the artist has been carrying out on light and on the way it generates images, new environments, and possible scenarios.

Cerith Wyn Evans | fig0.(Zephyrs!…), 2019
AVAILABLE AT THE BOOKSHOP AND UPON REQUEST
Scarf in silk twill, hand-rolled hem. 140 x 140 cm. Edition of 90 copies + 10 A.P.
In conjunction with “….the Illuminating Gas” show, Cerith Wyn Evans has created a limited edition that reflects on time, an element which – alongside light and sound – is central to the exhibition. Fig0.(Zephyrs!…) is a silk scarf hand-hemmed reproducing a drawing that the artist created as part of a series of works entitled Zen drawings. It consists of a unique momentary stroke executed free-hand, generating an abstract sign in black ink that harks back to the art of calligraphy, and in general to Japanese culture, that expresses an instant in which body and spirit converge in a single fleeting gesture. This drawing represents the artist’s attempt to explore that tradition: his personal fascination with ink-painting echoes in his characteristic use of black signs like cryptograms that elude comprehension and a single, univocal interpretation.

Sheela Gowda, Untitled (Dripfield), 2009
AVAILABLE AT THE BOOKSHOP AND UPON REQUEST
Offset print, 4 colours, on 280 gr paper Fedrigoni Century Cotton Wove. 27.40 x 20.92 cm. Edition of 45 copies + 5 A.P.
On the occasion of “Remains” the exhibition at Pirelli HangarBicocca, Sheela Gowda has created a limited edition that exemplifies her longstanding relationship with drawing. The edition Untitled (Dripfield) is an offset print version of the preparatory sketch she created in watercolours for the work Dripfield (2009). Conceived for the 9th Biennale of Sharjah (UAE), the installation included elements such as water and sound, in relation to the urban context of a city street. Gaining attention in the 1980s as a figurative artist, Gowda gravitated toward a more abstract expression that superseded the two-dimensional confines of the canvas. For this limited edition she has turned to drawing, a means of expression rarely seen in her more recent work but which remains fundamental to her practice. Endorsing the vision that underpins the entire exhibition project, the work Untitled (Dripfield) highlights the artist’s site-specific approach, her use of an abstract form of line, her compositional system and palette, and the body’s relationship with the architectural space.

Matt Mullican | Subway Poster for the Feeling of Things, 2018
SOLD OUT
Four-color digital print on blue back paper 200 x 420 cm; 6 parts, 100 x 140 cm each. Edition of 32 signed, numbered copies + 4 A.P.
In conjunction with the exhibition “The Feeling of Things”, Mullican has conceived a limited edition inspired by one of the works on view, Untitled (Two into One becomes Three) (2011): a massive rubbing—over 21 meters long—which covers the right-hand wall of the Cubo at Pirelli HangarBicocca, and has also been used in the Milan metro poster advertising the show. The limited edition is a six-section print that presents Mullican’s personal cosmology. It includes his iconic vocabulary of signs and symbols used to express our perception and individual, rational comprehension of the world, depicting it in a constant attempt to organize, understand, and categorize the experience of reality: from subjectivity and ideas to matter and the natural elements, by way of language, art, and everyday life. This special edition of the subway poster, a communication device that is spread throughout the urban fabric and is exposed to thousands of eyes, is in turn based on a rubbing—the oldest known technique of reproducing an image—and is part of the inquire into multiples that has characterized Mullican’s work for decades. A remarque hand-drawn by the artist makes each edition unique.

In this video installation, monitors set across from each other each show one of a pair of identical twins, seen in close-up; they create a strange, unsettling back-and-forth dialogue. The piece continues to evolve with every showing, adding a new video produced in each city where it is seen. The limited edition continues to explore the ambiguous dynamic of alternating differences and similarities that the work sets in motion. On either side of a single frame, it presents two photos of the twins selected for the Milan edition of the piece.
