With 'Catasterism', his first museum solo exhibition in the Netherlands, Giorgio Andreotta Calò (IT, 1979) transforms the Hedge House into an immersive installation. He approaches the building, designed by Wiel Arets, as a living entity, presenting existing and new sculptures in a cohesive ecosystem of light, matter, and time.

The exhibition is rooted in the estate’s strong connection to water – an element that both sustains and destroys, as the 2021 flood of the Hedge House painfully demonstrated. Calò makes themes such as our relationship with nature and climate subtly perceptible, inviting visitors to experience time and space differently.

Giorgio Andreotta Calò (IT, 1979) lives and works in Venice. His sculptures and installations investigate the relationship between landscape, time, and transformation, often from the perspective of water and geology. He was a resident at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam and represented Italy at the Venice Biennale (2017).
