Abstract

Located in the heart of the Sicani Mountains, the Andromeda Theatre is at once remote and deeply connected to the beautiful landscape that hosts it. Lorenzo Reina is a shepherd from Santo Stefano di Quisquina (in the Province of Agrigento) who, urged by an intimate and irrepressible inspiration, decided to draw out from the rocks on a hillside this tectonic archetype which had been resting there perhaps for centuries, maybe even before mankind appeared in this area. The monument engages a tightly-knit dialogue between earthly and celestial landscapes.
