  • Primo Marella Gallery Milano is pleased to announce Per volare serve l’aria, a solo exhibition by Italian artist Daniele Di Girolamo, marking his first presentation with the gallery.

     

    Per volare serve l’aria is an exhibition project that takes air as its guiding element.

    Throughout the exhibition, each work is either shaped by or permeated by the aerial element, which informs its forms and takes on ever-changing variations. The exhibition traces a series of correspondences between processes in the natural world and the human experience of time, transformation, and connection, creating a mirrored dialogue between the behavior of matter and our own lived experience.

     

     

    Further details will unfold in the coming weeks. Follow the gallery’s social channels and subscribe to our newsletter for forthcoming updates on Per volare serve l'aria, Daniele Di Girolamo's upcoming solo show.
