Free admission upon registration

A monumental video installation, curated by Cloe Piccoli, animated by a live sound performance created especially for our Hall of Honor by the art duo MASBEDO, part of the Ritratto di città international tour. The project – presented by Fondazione ICA Milano – takes its name from the first sound composition by Luciano Berio and Bruno Maderna that inaugurated the experimental practices of the Studio di Fonologia RAI in Milan in 1954. The project is the reenactment of the innovative experience that, starting with electronic music, broadcast by radio, expands into a broad vision involving architecture, art, design and literature as elements of civil and democratic rebirth.

MASBEDO is an artistic duo born in 1999. In their work there is a constant exploration and the consequent mixture of different artistic languages: video, installation, cinema, performance, avant-garde theater and sound design. Their works are featured by a strong immersive and site-specific component.
