Saw this strange looking installation at the Grosa garden near to the Intesa Sanpaolo skyscraper.
It is the work of Maestro Costas Varotsos.
The new work of Maestro Varotsos consists of superimposed glass plates resting on a metal structure and fixed together with silicone material. The planes, which completely cover the support structure, follow a helical pattern reaching a height of over 9 meters. The sculpture is also unbalanced in one direction with respect to the support base, providing an overall impression of movement as designed by the artist. The metal structure, which allows the glass sheets to rest, consists of 3 central tube trunks to which pairs of horizontal trays are welded. In the new installation, its inclined trend was more gradually supported by arranging the first section no longer vertical but inclined by 10 ° with respect to the original project. The area where "La Totality" stands is completed by a hill of greenery bordered by shrubs that represent a deterrent against possible vandalism while ensuring a fair overall view of the structure. To maintain the characteristics, functionality, efficiency and value of the sculpture over time, a maintenance plan was finally planned, which will be supported by Intesa Sanpaolo.
