Cortile d’Onore

installation ENtreePIC (10 x 6 x h 6 m)project NEMESI&PARTNERS - Michele Molè, Susanna Tradati

produced by ITALCEMENTI GROUP and STYL-COMP GROUP

The installation is a sculptural composition that evokes a botanical system featuring a branching pattern, whose fragmented and chaotic design generates an entropic-morphic system. This system is made with innovative materials and technologies developed by Italcementi and Styl-Comp, the partners of Nemesi for the project of the Italian Pavilion for Expo Milano 2015. The branching pattern of the installation suggests the primitive and at the same time high-tech figuration of the ‘skin’ of the Pavilion. The material shaped is cement with a pale color, a premixed cement whose composition of aggregates has been designed to convey a warm, vibrant materic impact. The interweaving of lines and fragments generates alternation of lights and shadows, empty and full zones, giving rise to a natural architecture, like imagining a forest in which to get lost or to find one’s way. A piece of artificial landscape and architecture, a preview and first segment of the great mosaic that will go into the upcoming Italian Pavilion designed by Nemesi&Partners for Expo Milano 2015. The model of the Italian Pavilion, scale 1:50, is on display in the Hall of the Aula Magna.

Founded in 2008, the company coordinates the design activity of Nemesi Studio, founded in 1997 by Michele Molè. Nemesi is based in Rome, in the Pietralata district, inside the former Lanificio Luciani, converted to transform the spaces of the former factory into a citadel of art and architecture. Today the Studio employs 25 professionals and participates, often victoriously, in many international competitions. During the course of 2014 two new Nemesi offices will be opened, in Milan and Shanghai. Recent projects include the Italian Pavilion for Expo Milano 2015 (Milan, ongoing); the new ENI administrative center, the result of winning an international competition, with an architectural design in partnership with Morphosis Architects (Milan, 2011); the Harbin International Airport, a limited international competition (Harbin, China, 2010); the urban renewal and museum project for the Trajan Markets (Rome, 2004); the multifunctional and religious complex of Santa Maria della Presentazione (Rome, 2002). In 2009 Michele Molè won the Gold Medal for Italian architecture with the project Atasehir Masterplan/Istanbul at the World Triennial of Architecture-Interarch in Sofia (Bulgaria); in 2003 he received the Medaglia al Benemerito della Cultura e dell’Arte from the Presidency of the Italian Republic.
