Exhibitions
Willi The Cat


WILLI the Cat is an exhibition that explores some of the possible relationships that exist between humans and animals, men and buildings, living creatures and places, life and unanimated objects. From psychology to politics, from the voices heard by schizophrenics to the removal of the animal that lives inside of us and from outside, presses itself against a window to get inside, from the “barbarians” to the nomad and to the migrants, WILLI is a platform that develops by expanding some of the tastes of the idea of threshold, refuge, and dwelling, crossing from one perceptive state to another.

Architecture moulds our consciousness before we realize it, space commands with subtle imperative ways, but cats are phlegmatic, and teach us how to reject limits with elegance. WILLI is a sensorial environment, a spatial and perceptual experience that displays some artworks of students of t he Free University of Bolzano together with others from Antonio Dalle Nogare’s private collection, interwoven in a subliminal feeling.

WILLI is orchestrated by Massimo Bartolini and Luca Trevisani, with artworks by Allora & Calzadilla, Vincenzo Ag netti, Annika Althoff, Carl Andre, Charles Atlas, Filippo Contatore, Sara Cortesi, Chiara Duchi, Adriana Ghimp, Dan Graham, Jonas Kolecki, Richard Long, Gordon Matta-Clark, Lilian Polosek, Irene Rainer, Gregor Schneider, Andreas Slominski, Michael Ungerer, Italo Zuffi.








I did not See it Coming 


I Did Not See It Coming - Lothringer 13 Halle · February 17 – March 6, 2022

Where does violence begin? Unequal treatment, noise, militarized borders, fake news, colonialism, deportation, police brutality, exclusion, sexualized assault, slavery, hate speech, exploitation, property damage—how do we define violence in our daily lives?
