“I Pilastri” is a cycle of solo exhibitions presented by Fondazione Malutta dedicated to the foundation’s veteran artists — the solid and steadfast figures who have shaped its identity over time. Conceived by Thomas Braida and inspired by the “Pillars (Hashira)” from Koyoharu Gotōge’s cult manga Demon Slayer, the project celebrates artists who have refined their practice through relentless dedication and mastery.
Curated and organised by Thomas Braida and Anastasiya Parvanova, with the support of the members of Fondazione Malutta, I Pilastri highlights the strength, individuality, and technical prowess of each artist, revealing the distinct creative force that makes them true cornerstones of Fondazione Malutta’s artistic community. Each exhibition in the cycle is accompanied by a critical text by Beatrice Timillero.
