The Heart Route
Detail
Surrounded by visions of the seabed and by large windows opening onto the tropical gardens of Isola Bella, Concetta De Pasquale’s boat-installation is the focal point of the exhibition ‘’The Route of the Heart‘’ (from 21 July to 4 November), a tribute to Lady Florence Trevelyan – a philanthropist and botanist who lived between the 19th and 20th centuries – who, having been estranged from the English court, found her destiny in Taormina, binding it forever to that of the town.
Lady Trevelyan’s journey, a forced exile to that corner of Sicily that became her Eden, is the subject of Concetta De Pasquale’s exhibition ‘The Route of the Heart’, curated by Andrea Guastella. A project of the Naxos Taormina Archaeological Park directed by Gabriella Tigano, who for the spaces of Villa Bosurgi – splendid architecture with pavilions ‘sewn’ and hidden in the rock – has involved the artist with a marked sensitivity towards nature and the sea. The exhibition will be inaugurated on Sunday 21 July, at 6.30 pm.
Fifteen works will be on display, together with four nautical charts that complete the site-specific installation in the Sala del Biliardo at Villa Bosurgi.
21 July – 4 November 2024 | Isola Bella, Taormina
