ENDLESS SUMMER | Guido Guidi     

  



Viasaterna is pleased to announce the participation of Guido Guidi in the second edition of ENDLESS SUMMER, a three-year exhibition cycle (2025–2027) conceived by MAGMA APS, on view from May 16 to July 1, 2026, at the Magazzino del Sale in Cervia.

Taking the utopian idea of an endless summer as its evocative and narrative framework, the project stems from a desire to experiment with new forms of collaboration rooted in individual curatorial practices. The exhibition is envisioned as a kind of jam session, where each critical and authorial perspective is valued without competition or rivalry.

ENDLESS SUMMER thus takes shape as a shared experience built on dialogue and exchange. Over the course of the project's three-year duration, a group of curators from different generations—each bringing their own sensibilities and lines of research—invite emerging and established visual artists active on both the Italian and international scenes to reflect on summer as a possible poetic suggestion. It is a season in which time seems to stretch, light redefines rhythms and spaces, and new perceptions, visions, and desires emerge and evolve.

The project unfolds within this suspended dimension, evoked less as a climatic phenomenon than as a state of mind. Summer becomes a perceptual threshold where the intensity of experience intertwines with its own transience, and the vitality of the present is already accompanied by a sense of melancholy for the inevitable end of the season.

ENDLESS SUMMER is an invitation to experience the exhibition as one experiences summer itself: with an awareness of a fullness that is entirely present, yet destined to dissolve.
