“At PAC, the space becomes a device for discovering the artworks, inviting interaction and creating a ground for active nostalgia: contemplation and reaction expressed through free movement within the space.”

Alessandro Scandurra

Scandurra Studio presents the exhibition design for METAL PANIC, the most extensive and comprehensive retrospective ever dedicated to Marcello Maloberti’s work, on display at PAC Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea, curated by Diego Sileo. This exhibition is a love letter to Milan, the city that has supported the artist since the beginning of his career.

The layout, designed by Scandurra Studio, enhances the PAC’s architecture, returning it to the city with the atmosphere of a contemporary, ever-evolving construction site. Inside, the existing potential of the space is expressed through carefully stripped-down environments where the artwork becomes the only visible and isolated element, revered in its sacredness. Silence takes shape as a pervasive void, inviting interaction and offering a space for active nostalgia—contemplation and reaction expressed through free movement.

Scandurra Studio’s design embraces this vision, transforming the space into a device—a tool for discovery. Visitors are invited to engage with the installation, uncovering its meanings as they move through the exhibition.

The exhibition design by Scandurra Studio was created in collaboration with in-visible lab, with contributions from 3F Filippi for lighting design and Deerns Italia for MEP engineering. It will be on available until February 9, 2025.
