#BUILDINGonview #GiovanniCampus “GIOVANNI CAMPUS Tempo e passione. Un omaggio all’artista (1929-2025)” curated by Marco Meneguzzo 🗓 On view until May 23rd, 2026 📍BUILDING GALLERY, Milan The exhibition aims to serve as a fitting tribute to the artist from Milan, the city that welcomed him in the 1960s and where he lived and worked for over fifty years. In this context, the exhibition begins on the ground floor with two wall-mounted projections dedicated to photographic documentation of the artist’s most famous actions/interventions. On the walls, there are works from the 1970s and 1980s from the BUILDING collection—including “Segnico continuo” (1977), “Struttura modulare multipla” (1970), and “Percorso. Intervento” (1983)—while the space is traversed by springs that, echoing the 1977 installation, on the one hand, limit the view of the exhibition space, and, on the other, evoke a dimension of utopian constructive happiness.

#BUILDINGonview #GiovanniCampus “GIOVANNI CAMPUS Tempo e passione. Un omaggio all’artista (1929-2025)” curated by Marco Meneguzzo 🗓 On view until May 23rd, 2026 📍BUILDING GALLERY, Milan As curator observes: “In recent years, “Tempo in processo” has been the title of almost all of Giovanni Campus’s artworks, actions, and exhibitions. ‘Tempo in processo’ means considering a universal factor—time—linked to human time, which is not only ‘becoming’ but indeed ‘process’. All his activity as a sculptor revolves around processuality, which is peculiar to the human being because it implies a will to act. Thus, what appear to be silent, minimalist, immanent sculptures always speak of the hands that installed them, which are necessarily not only those of the artist. For Campus, in fact, the sculptor is a catalyst of forces, and sculpture is a collective endeavor. The entire exhibition, set up on the first two floors of BUILDING GALLERY, aims to commemorate and celebrate not only the artist but also an approach to sculpture which, in its fundamental principles, involves teamwork – a collective endeavor – that leads to an awareness of the action and the creative process even before the formal outcome.”

#BUILDINGBOX #Perfiloepersegno #BUILDING BOX presents “Per filo e per segno. Percorsi di arte tessile in Italia”, an annual exhibition project curated by Alberto Fiz, involving twelve Italian artists from different generations, invited to reflect on the theme of contemporary #textiles. 5/12. Maria Lai, “Telaio”(2006), “Libro rosso” (2009) 🗓️on view until June 4th, 2026 Maria Lai (1919-2013) is featured with two emblematic works of her research: “Telaio” (2006) and “Libro rosso” (2009), intended as complementary testimonies of a poetic universe of great expressive power.   On the one hand, the processual logic of the work “Telaio” manifests itself in the creation of a magical machine, traversed by threads destined to create unstable geometries through the use of diagonal lines, parallel bundles, or intersections; on the other hand, the work “Libro rosso” reveals a mental script hidden within silent pages, crossed by tangled and suspended threads. @alberto_fiz #oneyearlongexhibition ph.

#BUILDINGTERZOPIANO #onview #ElenaElAsmar #BUILDING TERZO PIANO presents “Le Fantasmagoriche”, a solo exhibition by Elena El Asmar (Florence, 1978), curated by Marina Dacci. The project brings together a corpus of over forty artworks, including sculptures and wall works on glass, wood, and paper—created between 2008 and 2026— conceived as a unified intervention designed for the spaces of the third floor. Landscape is the focus of the exhibition, understood not only as physical space but also as inner space. “The works speak to us of a space within us made up of the vibrations of stars, the intensity of the sky, the depth of the waters, and the furrows of birds’ flight… a space that is dreamt and dreamy, fragile and fleeting” (Marina Dacci). The essence of Elena El Asmar’s research lies in an intimate approach that germinates on the threshold between wakefulness and dreams, where perceptual experience becomes vision and the space-time dimension manifests itself in suspended stratifications, perpetually in motion. Visitors are greeted by a series of watercolors, painted in shades ranging from sky blue to indigo with touches of gold, which give off a special light from the surface of the paper. The works depict “Venice” (2020), “Rome” (2025), “Siena” (2023), “Rapolano” (2025), “Castiglioncello” (2025), “”Salento with “Otranto” (2023) and “Santa Cesarea Terme” (2023), and even the legendary “Baalbek” (2022). 🗓On view until May 9th, 2026 #extended 📍BUILDING TERZO PIANO, Milan ph.

#BUILDINGBOX #Perfiloepersegno #BUILDING BOX presents “Per filo e per segno. Percorsi di arte tessile in Italia”, an annual exhibition project curated by Alberto Fiz, involving twelve Italian artists from different generations, invited to reflect on the theme of contemporary #textiles. 4/12. Antonio Marras, “Anime”(2026) 🗓️on view until May 6th, 2026 His works are visual creations, fragments of a reality that takes shape and fades away before our eyes, where the artist confronts us with an ambiguous and problematic message, far removed from any possible linear interpretation. The artwork, after all, does not seek perfection, but instability, engaging with our emotional dynamics. This is clear in the installation created for BUILDING BOX, featuring fabrics and ceramics that belong to the same visual process. Regardless of the materials, there is no methodological difference in his interventions, and the customized garments are hung on objects where matter and gesture are central, with a broken geometry, overlapping planes and imperceptible fractures in a continuous dialectic between construction and deconstruction. To quote Georges Didi-Huberman (Saint-Étienne 1953), a ‘resemblance through contact’ is thus produced. @antoniomarras_personal @alberto_fiz #oneyearlongexhibition ph.

#BUILDINGonview #GiovanniCampus “GIOVANNI CAMPUS Tempo e passione. Un omaggio all’artista (1929-2025)“, curated by Marco Meneguzzo, grew out of a desire to celebrate and pay tribute to one of the most rigorous and consistent artistic research in the contemporary Italian art scene. As curator observes: “In recent years, Tempo in processo has been the title of almost all of Giovanni Campus’s artworks, actions, and exhibitions. ‘Tempo in processo’ means considering a universal factor—time—linked to human time, which is not only ‘becoming’ but indeed ‘process’.

#BUILDINGTERZOPIANO #onview #ElenaElAsmar #BUILDING TERZO PIANO presents “Le Fantasmagoriche”, a solo exhibition by Elena El Asmar (Florence, 1978), curated by Marina Dacci. The project brings together a corpus of over forty artworks, including sculptures and wall works on glass, wood, and paper—created between 2008 and 2026— conceived as a unified intervention designed for the spaces of the third floor. The exhibition takes the form as an organic, immersive ensemble in which sculpture and two-dimensional artworks engage in dialogue with one another. In the main space, “L’esercizio del lontano” (2010/2026) takes shape: a series of sculptures composed of found glass, collected and assembled, covered with special perforated fabrics. They look like windows with grilles through which you can glimpse the vastness of the “outside.” An outside that takes shape in “Studio Portraits” (2024-2025), wall works created with oil and acrylic on wood, and in the collage on wood “Siparietto” (2026). Here, the vision is embodied in essential geometric forms, with an archetypal character, that refer to sidereal distances. The arrangement of the works in the space recalls a musical score, suggesting its rhythm, pauses, and resonances. 🗓On view until May 2nd, 2026 📍BUILDING TERZO PIANO, Milan ph.
