On Saturday September 7th 2002 in the Valletta Valley, in the Park of the Alps Marittime, a detailed artistic action created by Domenico Olivero and Stefano Venezia took place. It concerned the event I Graft - a constellation on Earth – a particular dynamic intervention of art. Everybody started the walking, in the late afternoon on a beautiful summer day. Walking through a nice alpine valley. During the walking we have created two phases in which the presence of a small but young group of participants was involved. In the first one, on a beautiful green lawn, a fascinating installation of red boxes waited for us with a mysterious and very colorful content, delicate spaces of color to exchange between ourselves. In the second, a suggestive series of silvered gems, pending from the trees of a small grove where we have offered a present to our intimate to share at home with the beloved ones. At the end of that journey, in the middle of a fabolous natural landscape already flushed from the autumn, we arrived to a “belvedere” where, after a nice individual test, we gave a personal contribution to create a sculpture in the shape of a constellation. That delicate structure, inspired by the Great Ors was composed of so many thoughts, alternated by lit candles that have suggestively dialogued with the sunset by accompanying us in a magic night.

That artistic event was a new attempt of making art. A proposal to create an artistic manufactured article but also to look for a dialogue and a sharing among the presents, everything in a romantic natural frame. A moment of sensitivity and poetic reflection to approach the persons to the fascination of the contemporary art.

This project has been realized in collaboration with the artist Stefano Venezia. (Chronicle of a work of art edited by Ornella Calvetti).
