From 6 February 2024 to 6 February 2025, the following exhibition "Records - Conjunction rings" will be held at the Gallerie di Piedicastello
"Records" is the first stage of a journey that will lead to the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Milan Cortina 2026.
"Rings of conjunction" is a three-year exhibition that, through different and innovative languages, will allow you to immerse yourself in the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games of Milan Cortina 2026, in the heart of the largest sporting event in the world.
The project, which is part of the 2026 Cultural Olympiad, aims to deepen the history, present and future of the Games by looking at them through three focuses.
Three years, three themes: measurement, technology, territory.
Measurements are at the heart of the first edition of the exhibition, housed in the Black Gallery.
"Records" tells the story of sport through the evolution of disciplines and the transformation of the body of sportsmen, an essential element of every competition. It talks about the time that sets the limits and the training that allows you to overcome them. It faces speed, a figure of contemporaneity and a constant incentive to improve.
Walking along the 300 meters of the Gallery, the visitor can immerse themselves in an evolving story, told in different languages, between experiential stations and data storytelling, or a virtual map with all the data of the Olympic participations and results.
Photographs, archival videos, telecrons of the most memorable moments, simulators and much more make up a mosaic capable of giving back in a scenic and immersive way the heritage and prospects of the Games.
After the focus on measurements with "Records", the exhibition project "Rings of conjunction" will continue to deepen the theme of technology, central to the advancement of disciplines and performance, and that of the host territories, the theatre of triumphs, disappointments, Olympic and Paralympic dreams.
In three years we will immerse ourselves in the emotions of the Games, distributed over the territory of two regions and two autonomous provinces, and in the meantime we will face a story that we like to think and tell as plural, made up of women and men who have represented their countries in different competitions, united by the values of Olympism and the aspirations of peace and cooperation.
Because, as Nelson Mandela said in a famous speech in 2000, “sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, it has the power to bring people together like few others can. ”
