Lorenzo Reina, an artist (he studied at the Fine Arts Academy in Palermo), and a shepherd by family tradition, at the centre of Sicily has built with his own hands, on a very panoramic hill that belongs to him, an extraordinary stone theatre devoted to the constellation of Andromeda.

Abstract

Lorenzo Reina, an artist (he studied at the Fine Arts Academy in Palermo), and a shepherd by family tradition, at the centre of Sicily has built with his own hands, on a very panoramic hill that belongs to him, an extraordinary stone theatre devoted to the constellation of Andromeda. Presented at the 16th International Exhibition of Architecture at the Venice Biennale exhibition (2018), this construction is well known today. Zampieri underlines its archetypal quality, the relationship with the landscape and the experience of cosmological synaesthesia, which takes the theatre back to its Greek origins.
