Areoporto, intentionally misspelled, represents an error, an unexpected occurrence, a discordant familiarity.

It embodies the concept of an exhibition born out of opportunity, addressing the diverse needs of its interpreters.
It emerges within a defined timeframe at a location yet to be defined.
Focused on the present, it explores the relationship between space, individuals, and artworks—those brought from Italy and potentially taken back.
A (mis)path reflecting our era, marked by precariousness, temporality, transit, and passage.

Areoporto encapsulates all this, but it’s also…

The type and amount of information required to prevent viewers from being distracted by the mistake, encouraging them to discover new narratives rooted in the recognizable.
It involves dialogues among objects speaking a familiar yet uniquely understandable language, inviting us to listen.
It provides the necessary symbols to establish a connection between places and their inhabitants.
