Street Art. Fino all’ultimo muro
Villa Farsetti becomes an urban space, between art, design and new visions
With the exhibition “Street Art. Fino all’ultimo muro”, Villa Farsetti opens its doors to a powerful, direct, and contemporary artistic language: street art. This exhibition was created with the aim of presenting urban art not merely as a rebellious gesture linked to the streets, but as a form of expression capable of redefining spaces, identities, and communities.
In a striking and historically rich setting such as Villa Farsetti, street art enters into dialogue with historic architecture, creating a poetic and unexpected contrast. The urban mark, born to be ephemeral, engages with frescoes, monumental halls, and ancient surfaces, transforming itself into living memory, collective storytelling, and cultural heritage.
The exhibition brings together established artists from the Italian and international scenes, creating a journey where past and present meet. The grandeur of the villa embraces the free energy of urban art, giving rise to an immersive experience in which each artwork becomes a new interpretation of space.
The exhibition route symbolically transforms the villa into a vast urban wall. The works, including large-scale pieces created specifically for the exhibition, reinterpret the historic interiors as a contemporary landscape, while fully respecting the architectural identity of the spaces.
Alongside the artworks, videos, photographs, and documents guide visitors through a narrative dedicated to the origins and evolution of global street art: from the writing movement of the 1970s to the most recent forms of artistic expression.
In this dialogue between artistic languages, Instabilelab also contributes to shaping the atmosphere of the exhibition spaces through the presence of its upholstered furnishings and rugs. Design elements that do not merely complete the exhibition setup, but actively take part in its visual narrative: surfaces, textures, and volumes become an integral part of the experience, creating spaces for pause, interaction, and contemplation.
Instabilelab furnishings accompany visitors along a journey where art, architecture, and interior design intertwine. The upholstered pieces offer comfort and welcome, while the rugs define and soften the space. Among them, the Andromeda 01 rug stands out, blending seamlessly into a perfect dialogue with Memorie Tattili, the artwork by Alessandra Carloni. This synergy helps transform the villa’s rooms into contemporary, vibrant, and immersive environments. A presence that reflects the brand’s vision, always driven by the intersection of decoration, design, and creative freedom.
At the heart of the main room, the experience becomes even more immersive, transforming into a true visual and sensory island. Here, the Clouwer rug serves as a stage for a refined constellation of floral forms: the compact Club pouf, the geometric balance of the Relaxia pouf, and the elegant Freya armchair, made unique by the nuances of the Verena graphic design. This design ensemble engages in an open dialogue with the narrative dimension of Alessandra Carloni’s artworks, Arizona Dream and Libero Pensiero. The furnishings are no longer mere objects; they become pieces of an artistic mosaic, amplifying the sense of journey and imagination that flows from the canvases into the lived space.
Moving into another room, the visual narrative shifts in rhythm and opens up to even more contemporary and daring inspirations. Here, the Olisia rug provides an elegant foundation for the Alicudi pouf, dressed for the occasion in the intriguing and exotic Tahira 01.a graphic design. This furnishing composition welcomes and amplifies the powerful urban energy of Bimbo Bang, the artwork by Evyrein. The striking visual interplay between the refined ornamental language of Instabilelab design and the edgy character of the artwork creates a corner of remarkable impact, demonstrating the brand’s ability to engage in dialogue with every form of expression.
The exhibition aims to transform Villa Farsetti into a contemporary meeting place where different languages converge: urban art, historical memory, design, and reflection on collective space. It is a project that invites visitors to see the wall not merely as a boundary, but as a narrative surface, a place of passage, and a realm of possibilities.
“Street Art. Fino all’ultimo muro” thus becomes much more than an exhibition: it is a meeting point between seemingly distant worlds, a story about marks, memory, and the transformation of spaces. A journey in which Villa Farsetti becomes a city, the wall becomes a narrative, and Instabilelab’s design accompanies the experience with its ability to give shape, character, and identity to environments.
