Opening today at the Milan Triennale is the exhibition "Cyclopica - The human side of infrastructure, " which tells the story of the human side of infrastructure through the dams, railways, and bridges built by the Salini Impregilo group.
The aim of the exhibition, which will run until June 3, is to introduce visitors to the more than 100 years of history of the leading construction group through two stages: the first displays photographic material from Salini’s archives, which counts the beauty of 1 million 200 thousand images and 600 videos made from 1911 to the present, while the second is a 10-meter tunnel that, thanks to the videos projected inside it and the typical sounds of construction sites, transports the visitor into a more immersive experience.
Pietro Salini, CEO of the group, explains, "Work today is the priority, in the world, in Italy, in our construction sites. And it is work that we want to celebrate with Cyclopica. We need all those who think today of governing the country to go back to thinking about employment, about work. There is the rhetoric of talking about work in a virtual sense, we need to talk about it in a real, practical way."
Opening hours: Tuesday through Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. More information on the Triennial website.
