Wonders of the Modern World

  • Finstral Studio, Friedberg (DE)
  • 09.10.2025–30.03.2026

The world, as a factory of vast and inexplicable buildings, has not ceased its activity. Finstral Studio Friedberg presents the exhibition curated by Pier Paolo Tamburelli and Anna Livia Friel. Wonders of the Modern World presents nine glass architectural models, built to scale and lit from within, accompanied by sixteen photographs by Giovanna Silva documenting the relationship between crowds and built space. A film by Giulio Squillacciotti offers a unified vision of the wonders, weaving together the different scenarios into a continuous narrative. The exhibition also includes two engravings by Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach from his Entwurff Einer Historischen Architectur (1721), as well as Anubis (2023), a sculpture by Werner Feiersinger.

The exhibition invites viewers to observe modern architecture in its most spectacular and contradictory aspects, offering a reflection on the relationship between architecture, ritual, and collectivity.
