Fondazione Ermanno Casoli and Elica inaugurate in Fabriano Esseri a malapena immaginabili, the site-specific installations created by Numero Cromatico together with the people of Elica, curated by Marcello Smarrelli.
The artwork originates within E-straordinario, the training project conceived by Fondazione Ermanno Casoli that for over twenty years has brought contemporary art into companies as a tool for growth and innovation.
Esseri a malapena immaginabili is the result of work developed from the content that emerged during the workshop led by the collective with the people of the Elica Group. The process involved 18 participants, including managers and collaborators, in a creative exploration aimed at connecting Fabriano’s historical heritage with contemporary art and the new frontiers of AI.
Esseri a malapena immaginabili is a large curtain made up of thousands of small tiles, forming a permanent symbolic bestiary – a synthesis of the creativity that emerged during the workshop. The tent is installed within Elica’s spaces and is also visible from the company’s small square, now configured as an art museum.
