Promoted by Fondazione Zegna, ALL'APERTO (OUTDOORS) is a project
established with the aim of broadening access to contemporary art and its
values, the project supports the realization of a series of site-specific
permanent artworks, created in the Trivero area, aimed at the local community
and all visitors.

"The Coloured Weathervanes, work in situ, 2007, Trivero" frames the perimeter of the panoramic terraces of the Lanificio Zegna (wool mill) with a rainbow of 126 flags, fluctuating between green and blue in a recurring scheme of seven Pantone shades. By an optical effect, they seem to merge into a single colour that varies according to the light.

Alberto Garutti

In 2009, in order to map out the territory of Trivero, Alberto Garutti seeked the collaboration of the teachers and of the local primary school fifth grade students.  The result is a public work that can be used (and 'adopted') by everyone: a series of cement benches with a seated portrait of one or more dogs, bearing the following caption: "The dog portrayed here belongs to a Trivero family. This work is dedicated to them and the people who will talk about it as they sit here".

Stefano Arienti

In 2011, Stefano Arienti introduced "The Telepathists", a "sculpture to be used", as the artist defines it, composed of a free Wi-Fi network and of several groups of archaic “thinking heads” in stone which mark the presence of the hotspots.
