From May 1 to 31, 2025, Milanese artist Ruggero Maggi, a donor of the MIDECIANT, will exhibit a mail art collage entitled “Urban Poem” at the Raamgalerie 'De Prachtvink'.
«“Urban Poem” is a printed collage of Post-it notes on a 70 x 68 cm sheet of white cardboard from 2025. Maggi glued approximately 200 notes in a linear composition, in which the horizontal axes of the sticky notes are the same. He applied a circular xerography to the composition, suggesting a vinyl sound medium. Maggi's urban poem is composed primarily of somewhat antiquated car models. The work tells the viewer that cities around the world are primarily made of tin and engines with their associated sounds. To hear the 'city poem,' you don't need a record player: just open the window. In the Raamgalerie, located in the busy parking lot of the Vinkhuizen shopping center, the poem takes on its full meaning.»
