Case Aperte

The subject is the relationship between private and public space. La Pietra has extensively dealt with the topic of breaking down the barrier between these two living spaces in a number of essays, publications, works and installations. Case Aperte is a prime example of “houses that open to the outside world.” They also perform various functions – candle holder, book holder, postcard holder, flower holder.

“What struck me most about Alessandro Rametta was his ability, his ambition, his desire to ‘do better’ and to amaze through his technical and expressive qualities in transforming matter.” (Ugo La Pietra)

“I have long collaborated with Ugo La Pietra, always with profound esteem and gratitude. We were able to successfully merge our perspectives in the essence of our project for Doppia Firma. It is an incredible privilege for me to be able to dialogue with and create alongside a revolutionary Master, who has literally marked an era through his reflection and work on the relationship between art and the viewer, the individual and the environment. This project gave me the opportunity to put my technical skills and sculptural ability to the test.” (Alessandro Rametta)
