FELICE LIMOSANI, AT MIAMI´S CONTEMPORARY ART WEEK

USPA NEWS -
The famous italian storyteller will be in Miami from December 12th 2015 at the Parmigiani Gallery for “Fragments ““ Euphonic Soundscape“ an Audio Kinetic Sculpture by Felice Limosani for Parmigiani Fleurier.

Parmigiani Fleurier is pleased to present the audio kinetic sculpture “Fragments ““ Euphonic Soundscape“ created by the Italian artist Felice Limosani. The installation pays homage to the handcrafted timepieces that Parmigiani Fleurier produces since 1996 in its Manufacture. Mr. Limosani took inspiration for his sound installation from a trip to the Parmigiani manufacture in Fleurier Switzerland.

He recorded the sounds of the artisans at work in their different environments ““ filing the tiny parts of the watch movements, the hand polishers working on the cases, the drills working on bearings, etc. Mr Limosani says “Each space has a sound soul. At the Parmigiani Fleurier Manufacture you can experience loud sounds, silences, and the presence of the workers who are dedicated, attentive and working in harmony. Hands operate in a very sensitive manner with careful gestures.“

Felice Limosani tried to recreate this ambiance in a constellation of sound fragments procuring intense emotion, like music. The sound is distributed through 4 cone-shaped speakers that oscillate back and forth, mimicking the pendulum swing of a traditional clock. Together each recording and each speaker composes a melody, played in unison as by an orchestra.

Felice Limosani operates internationally for top brands and cultural institutions. Board member of the Foundation of Venice, Curator of the exhibition "Planet EXPO 2015 To know, enjoy, have fun", the Milan Triennale, he is the author of projects with targeted approaches to aesthetic and emotional involvement of the audience. He has created site-specific installations at the Louvre in Paris, the Palazzo Strozzi in Florence, the Mies van der Rohe in Barcelona, Whitechapel Gallery London, the Sketch Gallery in London. His artistic projects have also been selected by Centre Pompidou (Paris) , Tate Modern (London) and Palais de Tokyo.
