A curation by Flavio Scaloni, Gallery Manager at Galerie Lo Scalo - The apple is a universal symbol spanning temptation and knowledge to modern innovation. Associated with the myth of Eden and the laws of gravity, it carries psychological weight as an object of desire and forbidden insight. Since 1950, artists have moved beyond traditional still life. René Magritte famously used the fruit to obscure identity in The Son of Man (1964). In the realm of conceptual art, Yoko Ono's Apple (1966) invited viewers to witness its natural decay. Pop sculptor Claes Oldenburg reinterpreted his form in large-scale works like Apple Core (1992). For a photographic perspective, Irving Penn captured the fruit's tactile elegance in still lifes like Cider Apple (1985). This collection explores how the apple remains a potent icon of both nature and artifice.
