Robert Greubel e Stephen Forsey presentano Art Piece 1
Robert Greubel e Stephen Forsey annunciano la loro partecipazione alla Contemporary Art Fair di Shanghai il 6 settembre 2012 per presentare Art Piece 1, la loro prima co-creazione artistica con il micro-scultore di fama mondiale, Willard Wigan. Parallelamente, quest’opera – in corso di realizzazione – sarà anche esposta alla Time Art GalleryGF in Bund 18, Shanghai – dal 7 al 9 settembre. Si tratta di una struttura semisferica girevole che mette in scena diverse micro-sculture, facilmente visibili grazie a uno speciale sistema ottico appositamente realizzato. L’insieme sarà una vero e proprio “tour de force” in termini di innovazione, architettura e complessità tecnica. L’Art Piece 1 sarà presentato al Salone Internazionale dell’Alta Orologeria Sihh 2013 nella sua forma evoluta.
Con l’aiuto di un bisturi e di un microscopio, Willard Wigan lavora utilizzando materiali poco comuni come la ragnatela, le zampe delle mosche, l’oro o il kevlar. La sua attività richiede un’altissima concentrazione e una disciplina fisica molto rigorosa: l’artista controlla e rallenta la sua respirazione entrando in uno stato di trance che gli consente di scolpire nell’intervallo di due battiti cardiaci. La bellezza e la meraviglia delle opere di Willard Wigan sono tali che, nel 2007, fu insignito da Sua Maestà, la Regina Elisabetta II, dell’onorificenza di Membro dell’Ordine dell’Impero Britannico (MBE) per il suo servizio all’arte.
