Clouds. In winter 2014, Philipp Messner experimented for the first time with colored artificial snow in the Dolomite Alps, Italy. From this public snow action a series of public projects started. The result was a landscapes that open a hypersurreal -
almost virtual visual level. The action ran concurrently with the installation at the @museion in Bolzano. https://www.museion.it/de/news/3154-kunstschnee
In May and December 2024, After the first action in the Dolomites 2013 another performative snow action was launched, this time back in Cortina.
The simple addition of food colouring reveals a colour field painting that simultaneously references its own artificial nature. Clouds in Cortina project was launched with @dolomiticontemporanee
