In the heart of Domaine d’Orion, an exclusive retreat nestled in the Gers region of southwestern France, along the Camino de Santiago, Ludovico De Luigi’s monumental sculptures engage in a dialogue with a landscape of extraordinary beauty, surrounded by meadows, lakes, gardens, and unspoiled nature.

Cast in bronze, the Horses are among Ludovico De Luigi’s most celebrated interpretations of the history and imagery of Venice. Inspired by the four horses of St Mark’s Basilica, they reinterpret one of the city’s most iconic symbols through the artist’s distinctive surrealist language, transforming it into a modern and timeless vision.

Other equestrian sculptures by Ludovico De Luigi can be found today in major cities around the world, including Marseille, St. Louis, Chicago, Denver, Perth, and Bolzano.

Domaine d’Orion is now home to one of the most significant collections dedicated to the recently departed Venetian master, offering its guests the opportunity to experience art immersed in nature.

MARE NOSTRUM is an ambitious project that brings together the art of Andrea Roggi and some of Liguria’s most extraordinary locations: Portofino, Genoa and Alassio. Three unique cities at the heart of a major exhibition journey celebrating the power of contemporary art and the beauty of the region.

Liguria is a region with an exceptional history. For centuries, it has been a land of encounters, exchange, and great traditions. Within this context, Andrea Roggi’s artistic research takes on an even deeper significance, engaging with the landscape and exploring universal values such as growth, knowledge, community and renewal.

From the timeless elegance of Portofino to the monumental spaces of Genoa and the seafront of Alassio, the sculptures become naturally integrated into settings of extraordinary historical and scenic value. In Alassio, the artist also symbolically becomes part of the city’s history with a dedicated ceramic tile on the celebrated Muretto di Alassio, an honour traditionally bestowed upon personalities who have left their mark on the cultural landscape.

For many years, Galleria Ravagnan has developed major public art projects because we believe that contemporary sculpture should be experienced by people – in squares, along streets and within the public spaces that shape the identity of a place. Each initiative represents an opportunity to create new connections between art, people and places, making sculpture part of everyday life while contributing to the enhancement of the local cultural heritage.

We would like to thank the Liguria Region, the Cities of Portofino, Genoa and Alassio, the institutions, sponsors and all the partners who made this project possible, sharing our belief that art should become increasingly accessible and experienced by everyone.

Giovanni Motta’s artistic research unfolds in a deeply inner space, where memory and emotion become the starting point for exploration and storytelling. His work transforms personal experience into a universal reflection, creating a language capable of speaking across generations and cultures.

Over the years, he has developed an immediately recognizable poetic universe in which painting, sculpture, and digital experimentation converge to create an authentic and distinctive visual language. At the heart of his work is Jonny Boy, the character through whom the artist explores one of the most profound and universal themes: the inner child.

Inspired by the world of manga and Japanese animation, Jonny Boy is much more than a recurring figure. He embodies the authentic and imaginative part that each of us carries within and that, over time, we gradually tend to conceal. Giovanni Motta has often described this character as a way of exploring emotions, fears, desires, and memories, transforming a personal experience into a shared reflection.

With “Palazzo Ducale”, Giorgio Tentolini offers a contemporary reinterpretation of one of Venice’s most iconic landmarks.

Created through his distinctive hand-cut layered metal mesh, the artwork transforms the building into a suspended image that continuously shifts with the viewer’s perspective. Up close, the material, gesture, and intricate structure come into focus; from a distance, the façade of the Doge’s Palace gradually re-emerges with remarkable clarity.

James Colomina returns to Venice with a new urban installation of powerful symbolic impact. In the Rio di San Felice, in the heart of Cannaregio, the French street artist from Toulouse has installed NOTHING SERIOUS, a red resin sculpture depicting a child adrift, clinging to a life buoy with a teddy bear by their side.

The title, NOTHING SERIOUS, is deliberately provocative. “It’s an expression we often use to downplay a situation”, explains James Colomina, “as if the most obvious emergencies always end up becoming someone else’s problem”.

Installed directly on the water, the work invites viewers to reflect on the vulnerability of our present and on the way we choose to look at what is happening around us. Venice thus becomes the ideal setting for a reflection on the major issues of our time. “I’m not trying to provide answers”, the artist adds. “I’m simply trying to create an image open enough for everyone to project their own interpretation”.

For James Colomina, this marks a return to Venice. In 2023, he installed RED VIRGIN, a red Madonna wearing a diving mask and snorkel, a work created to raise awareness of climate change and rising sea levels.
