Curated by Vicente Todol\u00ed, and realized in collaboration with Fondazione Merz, the exhibition spans the whole space of the Navate of Pirelli HangarBicocca, placing the visitor at the heart of a constellation of over 30 large-scale works in the shape of an igloo: an unprecedented landscape of great visual impact.<br \/>\nA key figure of Arte Povera, Mario Merz investigates and represents the processes of transformation of nature and human life: in particular the igloos, visually traceable to primordial habitations, become for the artist the archetype of inhabited places and of the world, as well as a metaphor for the various relationships between interior and exterior, between physical and conceptual space, between individuality and collectivity. These pieces are characterized by a metal structure coated in a great variety of common materials, such as clay, glass, stone, jute, and steel\u2014often leaning or intertwined in an unstable fashion\u2014and by the use of neon elements and wording.<br \/>\nThe exhibition provides an overview of Mario Merz\u2019s work, of its historical importance and great innovative reach: gathered from private collections and international museums, the igloos will be displayed together in such a large number for the first time.<\/p>\n<p><!-- default-view.php -->\n<div\n\tclass=\"ngg-galleryoverview default-view \"\n\tid=\"ngg-gallery-5bcf2b4aa7c82e619ebafacc4d419979-1\">\n\n\t\t<!-- Thumbnails -->\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ngg-image-0\" class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box \" >\n\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/merz1.jpg\"\n               title=\"Mario Merz Sv\u00e1jcban, a schaffhauseni gy\u0171jtem\u00e9ny\u00e9ben\"\n               data-src=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/merz1.jpg\"\n               data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/thumbs\/thumbs_merz1.jpg\"\n               data-image-id=\"7064\"\n               data-title=\"Mario Merz Sv\u00e1jcban, a schaffhauseni gy\u0171jtem\u00e9ny\u00e9ben\"\n               data-description=\"Mario Merz Sv\u00e1jcban, a schaffhauseni gy\u0171jtem\u00e9ny\u00e9ben\"\n               data-image-slug=\"merz1\"\n               class=\"ngg-simplelightbox\" rel=\"5bcf2b4aa7c82e619ebafacc4d419979\">\n                <img\n                    title=\"Mario Merz Sv\u00e1jcban, a schaffhauseni gy\u0171jtem\u00e9ny\u00e9ben\"\n                    alt=\"Mario Merz Sv\u00e1jcban, a schaffhauseni gy\u0171jtem\u00e9ny\u00e9ben\"\n                    src=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/thumbs\/thumbs_merz1.jpg\"\n                    width=\"152\"\n                    height=\"100\"\n                    style=\"max-width:100%;\"\n                \/>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ngg-image-1\" class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box \" >\n\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/merz2.jpg\"\n               title=\"\"\n               data-src=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/merz2.jpg\"\n               data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/thumbs\/thumbs_merz2.jpg\"\n               data-image-id=\"7065\"\n               data-title=\"Mario Merz\"\n               data-description=\"\"\n               data-image-slug=\"merz2\"\n               class=\"ngg-simplelightbox\" rel=\"5bcf2b4aa7c82e619ebafacc4d419979\">\n                <img\n                    title=\"Mario Merz\"\n                    alt=\"Mario Merz\"\n                    src=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/thumbs\/thumbs_merz2.jpg\"\n                    width=\"152\"\n                    height=\"100\"\n                    style=\"max-width:100%;\"\n                \/>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ngg-image-2\" class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box \" >\n\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/merz3.jpg\"\n               title=\"\"\n               data-src=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/merz3.jpg\"\n               data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/thumbs\/thumbs_merz3.jpg\"\n               data-image-id=\"7066\"\n               data-title=\"Mario Merz\"\n               data-description=\"\"\n               data-image-slug=\"merz3\"\n               class=\"ngg-simplelightbox\" rel=\"5bcf2b4aa7c82e619ebafacc4d419979\">\n                <img\n                    title=\"Mario Merz\"\n                    alt=\"Mario Merz\"\n                    src=\"https:\/\/meonline.hu\/merz-igloos\/thumbs\/thumbs_merz3.jpg\"\n                    width=\"152\"\n                    height=\"100\"\n                    style=\"max-width:100%;\"\n                \/>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t\t\n\t\n\t<br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\n\t\n\t\t<!-- Pagination -->\n\t<div class='ngg-clear'><\/div>\t<\/div>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pirelli HangarBicocca, Milan, 25 October 2018 &#8211; 24 February 2019 \u201cIgloos\u201d, an exhibition dedicated to Mario Merz (Milan, 1925\u20132003)\u2014one of the most relevant post-war artists\u2014brings together his most iconic group of works, the igloos, dating from 1968 until the end of his life.
