TOWARDS THE ARTWORK: A LAY PROCESSION / PIERO DELLA FRANCESCA

December 6, 2016

Migliore+Servetto Architects designed a narrative path for the exhibition of Madonna della Misecordia by Piero della Francesca hosted at Palazzo Marino from 6th December 2016 to 8th January 2017. This process has been conceived as a sort of lay precession towards the discovery of one of the most important painting of the artist.

The first view presented to the public doesn’t focus on the artwork itself but on its connection with the polyptych it is part of, to return the meaning of its relations.  On the dark, scenic background a dynamic line redesigns, in succession, all the missing parts of the polyptych, and then it turns off and hands the scene over to the sole painting, promptly defined by light.

Palazzo Marino – Sala Alessi / Piazza della Scala, 2 – Milan / 6th December 2016 – 8th January 2017 h 9.30 a.m. to 8.00 p.m. / Free admission.
