In
the courtyard of the Rettorato (entrance from via Po 17 and via Verdi
8) it is possible to visit the Radura installation designed by the
architect Stefano Boeri. Radura is an idea of public space for decongestion in which to stop, rest and wait. Radura is the project of an open space with a permeable perimeter, located within a larger open space. Radura is an urban device to dilute the intensity of flows and movements. Radura is an experience of sound atmosphere in counterpoint with urban rhythms.
Next
to the work of art, information points and projections about the situation of the forests in Italy and on the importance of the
management of the wood, the installation is in fact realized within the
IV National Congress of Silviculture that had taken place in Turin from
the 5th November to the 9th with several off events including meetings, screenings and a walk through the woods of Turin.
A pack of black wolves with bloodly jaws crowding against a pile of book s, , this dramatic art exhibition with strong social content is the work of chinese artist Liu Ruo Wang.
It is installed in the Cortile del Rettorato of the University Of Turin.
The message of the artist is a protest against the increasingly materialized society which indifference towards arts, religion and culture, it is also a complaint towards those in power of their disinterest in culture.
