Singular dedication in Carrara: a vagina-shaped sculpture displayed in the square becomes a tribute to Berlusconi.

A singular dedication to Silvio Berlusconi marked the opening hours of White Carrara, an art event that for several years now has been organized in the streets of Carrara ’s historic center and this year directed for the first time by a professional curator, Claudio Composti, owner of m2c Gallery in Milan. In Piazza Alberica, Carrara’s central square, unknown persons made a... singular addition to a sculpture in the shape of a female genital organ, carved by one Morgana Orsetta Ghini, executed in granite, and which is supposed to be a “maternal symbol,” reads the official description, “opening from which culture and traditions ideally originate, nourishment of the territory for centuries.” Indeed, the opening of the giant vagina gives onto the marble quarries.

Evidently, however, some of those who saw the work in the square must not have found sophisticated and refined allegories in it, and considered the ineffable work for what it appears: a huge granite vulva. So, on this night the goliards decided to turn it into a tribute to Berlusconi, leaning on the work a sign with dedication “TO SILVIO” to remember one of his greatest passions. Tangible was the astonishment of passersby who in front of the dedication wondered if it was part of the work, thus thinking of the work of an irreverent artist, or if it was simply the work of someone who wanted to add new and unexpected meanings to Morgana Orsetta Ghini’s work. Certainly, it cannot be said that it did not lend itself to such homage.
