A curation by Flavio Scaloni, Gallery Manager at Galerie Lo Scalo - Milk in art is a primal symbol of nourishment, purity, maternal warmth, and the fundamental ties between humanity and nature. Psychologically, its opaque white essence evokes comfort and innocence, while also carrying visceral connotations of life-giving vitality and domestic routine. Since 1950, contemporary artists have subverted this classic element from quiet rural still life into a catalyst for performance and visceral expression. Joseph Beuys utilized organic materials to examine energy and healing, incorporating fat and dairy themes into monumental works like Fat Chair (1964). Later, Jeff Koons engaged with childhood nostalgia and consumerism by incorporating dairy imagery into his bold Pop Art installations, such as Milk Can (1999). In photography, the world-famous Cindy Sherman subverted traditional representations of motherhood and nurture in her surreal, haunting photograph Untitled #223 (1990). This selection explores how contemporary creators distill milk into a potent metaphor for existence.
