Il Palazzo Experimental is pleased to host Memorie Alchemiche, an evocative exhibition exploring alchemy as a metaphor for transformation—both personal and collective. Through the works of Nicola Ghirardelli and Claudio Saviola, ancient artistic traditions are reimagined, shaping new dialogues between memory, material, and form.

Ghirardelli’s sculptures capture fleeting moments, merging art history and iconography with raw, organic textures. Fire plays a central role in his work, symbolizing the interplay between nature and human creativity. Saviola, drawing inspiration from archaeological artifacts, reinvents traditional ceramic techniques, creating pieces that defy time and structure. Fragments of the past—architectural details, symbolic forms, and lost narratives—are reassembled into a new visual language, inviting reflection on the fluidity of memory.

Set within the serene backdrop of Il Palazzo Experimental, Memorie Alchemiche is an invitation to explore the delicate balance between erosion and rebirth, permanence and change.

Summer 2025, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
