The current exhibition at Pirelli HangarBicocca in Milan, Italy, is dedicated to a crucial body of works in Italian artist Mario Merz's oeuvre, the igloos. Mario Merz conceived the first igloo for a group exhibition in Rome in 1968 and since then produced igloos in various sizes and materials until his death in 2003. The igloo for Mario Merz is a metaphor of the place and space inhabited by humans. His igloos are often made of a metal frame covered in fragments of materials such as clay, glass, stone, jute, and metal.
The exhibition Mario Merz: Igloos at Pirelli HangarBicocca presents over 30 igloos of various sizes and materials, arranged in chronological order (1968-2003). The show is curated by Vicente Todolí in collaboration with Fondazione Merz and runs until February 24, 2019.
