Curated by Flavio Arensi and Ferdinando Bruni, “Universimondi” is a cross-disciplinary initiative born from the collaboration between Meetmuseum and Teatro dell’Elfo.

The installation, conceived by Luca Pozzi, includes the artwork “Ellipse” by the legendary Italian artist Mauro Staccioli, famous since the seventies for his environmental sculptures. The work investigates the connections between the artistic cross-generational devices and the new frontiers of theoretical physics and Multi-Messenger Cosmology.

The result is a contemplative platform, intended as a catalyst of information, where the public is invited to participate as an active connector.
