What remains of a life once it fades away?
The body decays, the voice falls silent – but the trace, the work, remains. Art is more than a medium of expression; it is a metaphysical resistance against time. As humans, aware of our mortality, we carry an ancient longing to leave traces behind. The cave paintings of Lascaux, created over 17,000 years ago, are not merely images – they are an attempt to pierce through time itself. A voice from the depths of the past that rebels against silence.

Art as immortality: how artworks defy time, from Van Gogh and Warhol to Kusama and Abramović. Discover art’s eternal promise.

Places like the Valle dei Laghi in Trentino are perfect for this. Especially the charming Agritur La Dolce Mela, where autumn tastes of warm colors, a touch of dolce vita, fine wine, and sweet apples.
