Target client / artist:
The bank gave the artist Paolo Grassi the task of creating a performance on the occasion of the opening of the new office in Ascona that would involve all visitors.
Everyone had to extract a number from the boule and add it to the board following the white spiral previously prepared.
A total of 880 people were involved, many of whom were children.
Subsequently, the work of those present was rearranged in a definitive copy on multilayer plexiglass panels.
These are the numbers that were required to accomplish this work from 4'196 to 4'407
Please note:
all commissioned works are part of the From "0" to infinity project.
The artist Paolo Grassi does not grant any exceptions.
