Curated by Alessio de’ Navasques and realized in collaboration with the Martina Simeti gallery, the exhibition features sculptures and jewelry works from the early 1980s to the present day. It is a showcase in which the work of a demiurge artist challenges our perspective with pieces that transcend traditional exhibition formats and can be worn, and jewellery that, unable to be worn, becomes sculpture. Each of Schobinger’s pieces, unique in terms of workmanship, technical skill, and surprising combinations, undermines the capitalist idea of a hierarchy of values and consumption, as well as the concept of ornament as a replicable industrial product, to achieve the mystical aura of a unique and precious amulet.

The exhibition unfolds in thematic islands, in a display that includes historical furnishings from 10·Corso·Como, following an idea of dynamic “psychogeography” that recalls a journey through W.G. Sebald’s Rings of Saturn, a book cherished by the artist. The exhibition thus recounts a search for absolute freedom both in terms of classic goldsmithing materials and the idea of formal coherence between construction and function.
