Le Scritture del labirinto:
We elaborate signs and visions starting from the “disconcerting” writing of the Labyrinth by Arnaldo Pomodoro.
The work is done through:
After having virtually entered the work “Entering Arnaldo Pomodoro Labyrinth”, we will investigate the theme of the sign and “writing” of Arnaldo Pomodoro.
We will model the clay to create our tablet, on which we will then engrave a writing with Sumerian characters. What secret will our comrades have to decipher?
What must have on each student’s desk: sheets, black marker, a sheet, thick cardboard (white or any color), modeling clay, various objects for modeling and engraving clay.
Duration: 60 minutes
Price: 60 €
Where: at school or at home
Interactive guided tour
The environmental work “Entrance into the Labyrinth” is an environment of 170 square meters, begun in 1995, inaugurated in 2011, today still in work in progress .
The Labyrinth of Arnaldo Pomodoro has found its definitive location in the underground spaces of the building ex Riva-Calzoni in via Solari 35, once the Museum of the Arnaldo Pomodoro Foundation, now Fendi Showroom.
Guided tour of the work “Entering Arnaldo Pomdoro Labyrinth” to explore secret rooms and passages.

Duration: 75 minuti
Price: 100 €
Where: via Solari 35, Milano
Manipulation Workshop
We enter Arnaldo Pomodoro’s studio, which is basically his real home, where he thinks and shapes his works. A place where he still works today but which sometimes opens to the public for visits and workshops.
… but if you can’t come to the artist’s studio, then we’ll come to your class!
How does an artist work? What techniques do he use to create your works?
We will experiment the “negative” working technique with which Arnaldo Pomodoro creates his sculptures, starting from a clay surface on which he imprints the abstract signs characteristic of his work, already imagining the final form, composed of protrusions and recesses, elements rhythmic and chaotic signs on the surface.
We will create our own sculpture by pouring plaster on the matrix and then letting it dry.
Duration:90 minuti
Price: 150 € at school
Price: 120 € at Arnaldo Pomodoro Studio, via Vigevano 3, Milano
Relief print workshop
We enter Arnaldo Pomodoro’s studio, which is basically his real home, where he thinks and shapes his works.
A place where he still works today but which sometimes opens to the public for visits and workshops.
The students will build their own matrix starting from a rigid base.
They will create a composition by assembling shapes and objects, prepare the print register and paper, and then print with the manual press.
The pressure of the press will transform the surface of the sheet into a design similar to a bas-relief. At the end of the workshop everyone will have a small run of signed and numbered prints.
Duration: 90 minutes
Price: 120 € at Arnaldo Pomodoro Studio, via Vigevano 3, Milano

Light or heavy, smooth or rough? The activities will accompany children according to the spirit of the methodology, they will be a moment of discovery and learning in absolute autonomy, where the operator’s task will not be to tell what to do, but how to do it. From cataloging to freer composition, we will learn to use the tools correctly and to pay attention to the gesture of our hands, simple gestures that give sometimes surprising, certainly unique results.
Duration: 90 minutes
