Gracias a su nuevo proyecto llamado ‘Support’, Quinn instaló dos manos enormes emergiendo del canal de Venecia. La escultura parece estar soportando las paredes del hotel Ca’ Sagredo, reportó Boredpanda.

Yes!…so happy to say mission accomplished. SUPPORT in Venice to support this wonder of city that is threatened by climate change. I hope my art brings a new focus of attention to a global calamity that we are faced with. A big thank you to the city of Venice and to his Mayor Luigi Brugnaro for believing in this installation from the beginning, to Ca’ Sagredo hotel represented by Lorenza Lain (the force of Nature) to C and C architectural Studio, Fulvio Caputo, Marco Zanon, Ufficine delle Zattere, Luisa Flora, Tecmolde, Julio and Irene Luzan and the entire team, She Digital, Grupoo Orseolo with Rein srl and the Gondolieri of Venice. To my super team in Spain at Quinn Creations To my family, my wife and especially my son Anthony for letting me use his hands, and of course to @halcyongallery , representanted by Paul Green, Udi Sheleg and assisted by Shani, Helga and all in the gallery, because without their continued organizational, moral, artistic and financial ‘support’ none of this could have happened. #biennale2017venezia #biennale2017 #lorenzoquinn #lorenzoquinnartist #venezia #halcyongallery #support #supportart #climatechange

'SUPPORT' in Venice to support this wonder of city that is threatened by climate change like many other world Heritage sites around the world. I hope my art brings a new focus of attention to a global calamity that we are faced with. Art in 'Support' of art: Venice is now the art capital of the world during the Venice Biennale but the city of art is threatened and needs our help and protection. ——A big thank you to the city of Venice and especially to its Mayor Luigi Brugnaro for believing in this installation from the beginning, to Ca' Sagredo hotel represented by Lorenza Lain (the force of Nature) to C and C architectural Studio, Fulvio Caputo, Marco Zanon, Ufficine delle Zattere, Luisa Flora, Tecmolde, Julio and Irene Luzan and the entire team, She Digital, Grupoo Orseolo with Rein srl and the Gondolieri of Venice.

El escultor desea generar conciencia sobre el calentamiento global que ya da muestras de las tragedias naturales que puede causar. Además, Quinn quiere que los habitantes cuiden la Venecia inspiradora.

Venecia es una ciudad de arte flotante que ha inspirado a culturas durante siglos. Pero para continuar haciéndolo necesita el apoyo de nuestra generación y de las futuras, porque está amenazada por el cambio climático y el deterioro del tiempo”, dijo el artista a Halcyon Gallery.

Escogió las manos para enviar este mensaje porque considera que estas tienen el domino de todo. “La mano contiene mucho poder: para amar, odiar, crear, destruir”, concluyó Quinn.
