Franco Turcati - High-Tech Art
High-Tech Art
In front of the Oval, near the Lingotto in Turin, there is an industrial installation that almost seems to parody the works exhibited at each edition of Artissima.
A masterpiece of engineering and design, which we could define as a true High-Tech Art: an involuntary sculpture, born from functionality but imbued with contemporary aesthetics.
