Silvio Wolf. L’Altrove

From February 24th to March 21st 2026, BUILDING TERZO PIANO presents L’Altrove [The Elsewhere], a solo exhibition by the artist Silvio Wolf (Milano, 1952), which brings together a selection of historical, recent, and unpublished photographic works created by the artist between 1989 and 2026, exploring the themes of Threshold, Absence, and Elsewhere. The exhibition also presents Aperture II (2009/2026), a visual and acoustic installation – with composition and sound design by Tiziano Crotti – conceived specifically for the exhibition space.

Simultaneously, at Gallery Moshe Tabibnia, the work Piccolo Myhrab Monumentale (1990) is on view, in which the artist tackles the themes of elsewhere and the threshold through the three-dimensional photographic reconstruction of an architectural element from Islamic tradition. 

In Wolf’s work, the threshold is configured as a site of knowledge: a space that invites us to pause, looking, and meditation. It is at this point that reality and imagination come into contact. His photographs point toward possible paths and otherness, presenting themselves as places of transition that connect and separate at the same time, offering simultaneous visions of interior and exterior. 

During the exhibition period, the artist’s book Dal Libro della Vita [From the Book of Life], published by Prearo Editore (Milan) in 2026, will be presented at BUILDING TERZO PIANO. This bilingual book (Italian and English) consists of 15 original limited edition prints signed by Silvio Wolf and inserted into French-style quartini, enclosed in a black silk-lined box. The volume, accompanied by a conversation between Alberto Fiz and Silvio Wolf, summarises 45 years of the artist’s visual and existential research on the themes of the Threshold, Absence and Elsewhere.
