Galleria Franco Noero is pleased to announce the 4th exhibition of Henrik Olesen: THE EUPHORIA OF TURIN.

The centre of the exhibition of Henrik Olesen consists of an empty square, a loss of consciousness, referencing the story of Nietzsche suffering a mental collapse at Piazza Carlo Alberto in the centre of Turin in 1889.

(It is said that when Nietzsche witnessed the flogging of a horse, he ran and threw his arms up around its neck to protect it, and following collapsed to the ground).

It is possible that what they believe to be right
is cheap reason!

The tiredness
and the uncertainty and the weight of the mediocrities of habit

(from "Black Mirror" by Roger Gilbert Lecomte)
