To see the other wood-stack you must look up at the balcony, “Unstable Installation”, otherwise called the collapsing wood-stack. This work is a concentration of allusions: it is a play on Italian words, “installazione” as this installation has been made above a stable–stalla and “in–stabile”, made on a building-stabile, but it is also unstable-instabile. More critical people maybe see it as having been made by an unskilled villager, unable to stack wood properly, though this is of course rare.
The afore mentioned stable, is indeed a stable. To the right, ground floor: “Menantìni’s stable”, which is all explained on the information board. In summertime it might well be empty; remember the cows go on holiday, up to the high mountain pastures! At other times you could go in and stroke them. Or maybe not, maybe one of them is still there!
On the wall of the house on the opposite side of the alley, you’ll see another wood-stack installation, “Discovering the mountain”, a big mosaic made by the wood-carver Silvano Zeni, his fellow artists-colleagues and the children of the local elementary school.
