TOR – Lois Anvidalfarei

TOR” by Lois Anvidalfarei is a permanent installation that forms part of the building complex of the Museum Ladin Ciastel de Tor.

The large tower (tor in Ladin) houses inside it the sculpture “Falling”: a body suspended in a structure made of scaffolding tubes. The bronze figure is one of six created in 2013 by the artist for the “Conditio Humana” cycle. As the title of the series suggests, the work depicts existence balanced between physical strength, containment, endurance, and collapse.
“The human being within his transience. Although life is temporary and fallible, the aspiration towards its perfection is the origin of a noble principle.“ – Lois Anvidalfarei

 

This new artistic and architectural element visually references the main body tower of the museum housed in the medieval Ciastel de Tor. Additionally, “Tor (Fallender)” relates to the natural landscape by entering into a close dialogue with it and ideally introducing the SMACH Val dl’Ert, whose path begins nearby and leads to the discovery of over twenty artworks installed among woods and clearings.
