Giorgio Andreotta Calò’s research revolves around an intense crossover of dimensions developed through a process of withdrawing fragments from reality and the re-appropriation of architecture, landscape and his own history. Calò creates works that cross boundaries between sculpture, actions and direct architectural intervention. Therefore, the artwork presented to the public is never a specially made object or simply the result of a project, but rather a process of time immersed in a physical matter and space, given its shape from both the environment with which it interacts and the energies unleashed within it.
