The first of the projects that in 2015 will be specially commissioned from the French artist Daniel Buren, to celebrate the relationship between the museum and its public, between the institution and its community

With this first intervention Buren welcomes visitors to the large gallery on the ground floor of the museum, converted into a play area with a veritable game of life-size constructions, or a kindergarten on the scale of the environment, made by assembling some one hundred modules of geometric forms and colors inspired by the solids of the German pedagogue Friedrich Wilhelm August Fröbel (wooden spheres, cubes and cylinders originally conceived to heighten the cognitive potential of play in relation to language, encouraging children to engage in a participatory and community discovery of reality and their expressive capacities by stimulating faculties such perception, tactile exercises, construction and deconstruction).

curated by ANDREA VILIANI, EUGENIO VIOLA
