For four months, Cracking Art will join the Baroque art of Valsanzibio Garden, one of the most important historical places in Italy. Medium and large sized snails, wolves, meerkats, rabbits and frogs will appear discreetly among centuries-old trees, natural works of art, and among almost 70 sculptures made of Istria stones, most of them created by Merengo and representing classical characters such as Mercury, Apollo, Hercules, Argo, Typhon, Polyphemus, and Kronos. The title chosen for this exhibition is “Rigeneramento”: a clear reference to the Re-Generation Cracking Art exhibitions set up all over the world but also a reference to the Renaissance and a tribute to the feeling of peace and prosperity that the garden generates.
“Our artworks are easy and immediate to understand, but at the same time they are surprising and they bring a very high emotional involvement: the aim is to become more aware of nature, art and culture.
Our invasions are playful icons of contemporary fairy tales and they want to reflect the cultural heritage that has generated them for then regenerate it in return” Kicco – Cracking Art.
