Curated by Treti Galaxie
Mole Antonelliana, National Cinema Museum
5 – 6 November 2016

In collaboration between Treti Galaxie and the National Cinema Museum of Turin, the solo show by Spanish artist Alvaro Urbano, I took place on the November 5, 2016. The event is part of Urbano’s far-reaching project “My Boy, with such Boots We may hope to Travel Far”, which consists in the installation of sculptural groups, inspired by the famous cryptogram from Jules Verne’s “Journey to the Centre of the Earth”, in various places around the world. The exhibition, designed to be viewed by only one spectator, will be displayed in the spire of the Mole, at a height of 126 meters. The exhibition permits the participation of a maximum of 40 people. The sole spectator of the exhibition will be identified in the morning of Saturday 5 November through the distribution of 40 chocolate bars, one of which will contain instructions on how to access the exhibition. The remaining 39 participants will attend the projection of Alvaro Urbano’s video “The Ghost and the Host”.
