From 12 to 16 April 2016, in the occasion of the international conference "Bramosia dell’Ignoto | Greed of the Unknown" at the Italian Cultural Institute of Prague, will be hold a retrospective of Enrico Magnani entitled "Magnum Opus". The exhibition brings together a selection of works from 2007 to the present day. The collection covers all of the issues with which Magnani, in the last decade, has been exploring the most ancient spiritual traditions of humanity. Artworks always inspired by the great themes: from Alchemy to Taoism, from primitive archetypal to Greek mythology. With stones, metals, clays, and combustions the symbolism of labyrinths, of tao, of the five elements, and the philosopher's stone takes life, gathered here to invite the viewer to explore the depths of his being and better understand the meaning of life and its role in the universe.
