THE GARDEN WITHIN
THE GARDEN WITHIN
Art, nature and relationship to rediscover your inner garden
An immersive and multisensory experience, where art, nature and relationship intertwine to invite each person to slow down, listen to themselves and find a deep sense of belonging to life.
A lively and participatory space, open to all: visitors, art and nature enthusiasts, families, musicians, educators, cultural and environmental professionals.
The exhibition evolves over time, enriching itself with performances, laboratories and new artistic presences, to offer an experience in continuous transformation.
ICH BIN
A selection of pictorial works that are born, on the occasion of the Berlin Art Project Space Festival 2024, from a deep reflection on the famous phrase "Ich bin ein Berliner", pronounced by John F. Kennedy in 1963. Through this production, the artist explores the meaning of freedom and relationships in contemporary society, asking crucial questions about our sense of identity and belonging.
Micro MACRO
The idea of activating this initiative comes from the desire to show an evolutionary artistic path through a body of works extraordinarily rich in vitality and dynamism, organic paintings inspired by a deep sense of connection to life.
The works selected for this exhibition, all belonging to a cycle of works created by Brunelli from 2019 to 2024, are the result of continuous technical experimentation on different but similar media that leads to an exciting journey and exploration of the plant world and the discovery of microscopic and macroscopic wonders.
wʌn
A social innovation and sustainability project that combines art, nature and artificial intelligence in a sensitive ecosystem.
The emotions of the visitors, translated into sound and matter, generate a 3D sculpture that grows over time, making visible the collective trace of the lived experiences.
Central theme: the interconnection between human, technology and nature as an organism in the making.
In Essence
The project "In Essence" shows the relationship between man and nature that settles in a given place and the process of mutual change. In fact, nature transforms man and man transforms nature, attributing its own identity to places.
The artist-designer Carlo Brunelli interprets the concept of space in the philosophy of Tenuta Villa Bellini, an eighteenth-century architectural structure that together with the ancient grape varieties of the brolo, with typical specimens of Valpolicella and specimens more unique than rare, takes on an identity character for the company. The attention to the historical and naturalistic dimension represents the key to Brunelli's research, as a sensitive testimony of the existence of man and his role within the ecosystem.
The world of art and that of wine meet life to tell the Estate and the biodiversity of the vineyards in an experimental and creative way, with a storytelling based on works of art in which natural and anthropogenic elements coexist. A transversal project that aims to go beyond the physical limits of space to evolve into a widespread space: the Gallery becomes in fact the starting point where spectators get involved in a multi-sensory experience, with connections and references that communicate through the multiple realities of Villa Bellini in different moments and places. The ultimate meaning is to understand the essence of the relationship between man, nature and territory beyond time and space.

Ex Aqua
An exhibition that celebrates water as the origin and environment of life. A selection of pictorial works that explores the fluidity, transformation and vital energy of water, a central element in Carlo Brunelli's artistic practice. Through colours, textures and organic movements, each work invites the viewer to immerse himself in a visual and emotional dialogue, rediscovering the deep bond between man and nature. Ex Aqua is not just an exhibition, but a journey into the beauty and complexity of the vital essence that surrounds us.
Reverse Forward
On the occasion of Art & The City - Art Verona 2022, Carlo Brunelli and Arianna Pace present Reverse Forward, a multisensory and performative installation that explores our connection with the earth and our origins.
Through a powerful artistic narrative, the work invites us to reflect on how personal and collective evolution requires a return to the roots, symbolically represented by the earth as the environment of life. An interweaving of visual arts, evocative sounds and performances makes this experience an immersive journey, capable of stimulating new awareness.

Walkabout
In Aboriginal culture, the walkabout is a journey in search of one's ancestors through reunification with nature. A physical and spiritual journey proposed again in an exhibition that becomes an experience of human life, starting from the contemporaneity of the works of Carlo Brunelli, symbol of natural elements, which meet for the first time the works of the collection of Tiziano Meglioranzi, belonging to the oldest civilisations.

In Arte et Vino veritas
What do biodynamic art and agriculture have in common?
A synaesthetic path in the gallery among the works of Carlo Brunelli, accompanied by a tasting of wines from the Camerani farm, opens a reflection on the relationship between man and nature.
A dialogue between the world of art and that of wine to rediscover the origins of man. Sight, touch, hearing, taste and smell become the trait d'union with Mother Earth, symbolising the truest essence of every form of life.
What is my size?
“What is my size?”
A multimedia installation composed of painting, digital elements and anthropomorphic organic-vegetals that, relating to each other and with the surrounding space, allow me to immerse myself in my artistic investigation and reflect on anthropocentism and sustainability.
