Matteo Vettorello | Pressione Simpatica
curated by Irene Sofia Comi
Edicola Radetzky, viale Gorizia, Milan

Opening: 12 settembre ore 18.30
dal 13 settembre - 7 ottobre 2019

Pressione Simpatica (Sympathetic Pressure) is the first solo show of Matteo Vettorello (Venezia, 1986), curated by Irene Sofia Comi and specifically designed for Edicola Radetzky’s spaces, in Milan.

In this exhibition, Vettorello presents the project Autoindicatore di pressione simpatica (Self-indicator of sympathetic pressure), a large interactive and site-specific sculpture. Alternating different times and ways of fruition, the work is designed to actively involve the public, giving back the dual nature of the work, constantly oscillating between the concept of work of art and activation device.
Almost like a medical machine for a disease treatment, through a biometric system the sculpture re-elaborates the heart beats of the "patient-users", measuring their empathic capacity.
Together with some mixed-media sketches, and with a night lighting designed ad hoc, the project becomes a metaphor for a critical-ludic vision of the society and the surrounding urban landscape: Pressione Simpatica is at the same time limit and contact between alienation and collectivity, living in a threshold between magical occurrence and contemplative act.

Due to the dual sculptural and performative nature of the artwork, the public will be able to interact with the sculpture in the spaces of Edicola Radetzky twice a week for the entire duration of the exhibition.
