Title of the work:

Milan Cathedral, Intimate Polyptych

There is an almost "living" object behind the Milan Cathedral, the Intimate Polyptych: photography itself. It has gone through various phases, like a human being. It was born from a playful idea, was then "rejected" for imperfections, suffered the tearing during the COVID period, was "healed" with Kintsugi gold, endured other "traumas," and was finally "regenerated" through reprinting and covering the scars with embossed gold. Each phase has left its mark, making the work unique and unrepeatable, a true visual and tactile chronicle of this process of transformation and growth.

Technical specifications:

• Milan, 2020
• 50x60cm - unique
• Print on 350g matte coated gardamatt paper, treated with the addition of a glossy acrylic binder and brass flake powder.

This work was donated by Ricci Laetitia.

For this charitable initiative, Memorabid is responsible for collecting pre-auction bids.

The final closing of the lot will take place during the event on Monday, November 3rd, at 6:30 PM in the Salone d'Onore at Triennale Milano.

At the end of the pre-auction, the highest bid received for each lot will constitute the starting bid for the in-person event. If there are no further bids, the pre-auction winner will definitively win the lot.

Pre-auction winners will receive an email inviting them to raise a maximum bid, which will be carried forward to the auction on November 3rd to protect the interests of the online pre-auction participant.

Winners of the online pre-auction will also be offered the opportunity to defend their bid by participating remotely at the November 3rd event, via the telephone auction mechanism directly through the CAF Association.
