The exhibition "Cyclopica" opens its doors on May 1st, at the Triennale di Milano. Through a multi-sensory journey the exhibition represents the immensity of large-scale infrastructure: dams, bridges, tunnels, railways and roads that have marked the evolution of Mankind during the last century.
A journey through images and immersive experiences, which narrate inspirational stories of work in Salini Impregilo construction sites, and of challenges that at times seemed impossible to meet. Work culture merging with the dream for a better future.
It’s a representation of the Italian genius and creativity, renowned worldwide, a legacy and a global heritage.
The exhibition illustrates Man's work, the strength and distinctiveness used for building such gigantic works. It also tells the story of the continuous innovation of the work carried out a mixture of technology and craftsmanship. It shows the skills that make each project unique: projects which at times required a work force of more than 10,000 people, often in extremely challenging conditions.
A profession recalled by Primo Levi, who described the work carried out by the person who travels the world to build infrastructure in places on the boundaries of reality, “with his socket wrench hanging from his belt, because for us it’s what a sword was for the knights in olden times."
