The city of Milan has historically been closely associated with water, given its location at the intersection of various rivers, canals, irrigation ditches, and springs. This relationship has been fundamental to its development and has left a significant imprint on its infrastructure and identity. This exhibition examines the multifaceted and often enigmatic relationship between the city and water, highlighting the diverse and evolving forms that this vital element assumes. Water, being fundamental to life yet equally capable of inflicting death, is explored through a lens that is both curious and unexplored, revealing its intricate and dynamic nature.

Milano è una città che ha costruito la sua fortuna sull’intimo rapporto con l’acqua dei tanti fiumi, canali, rogge, fontanili che ancora la solcano, un tempo in superficie, oggi più spesso a livello sotterraneo. Questa mostra ripercorre alcuni dei tratti, talvolta più curiosi e inesplorati, della relazione tra la città e l’acqua nei tanti mutevoli aspetti che questo elemento fondamentale alla vita, ma altrettanto letale, può assumere.

Abstract

The city of Milan has historically been closely associated with water, given its location at the intersection of various rivers, canals, irrigation ditches, and springs. This relationship has been fundamental to its development and has left a significant imprint on its infrastructure and identity. This exhibition examines the multifaceted and often enigmatic relationship between the city and water, highlighting the diverse and evolving forms that this vital element assumes. Water, being fundamental to life yet equally capable of inflicting death, is explored through a lens that is both curious and unexplored, revealing its intricate and dynamic nature.
