Fabrizio Plessi, one of the great pioneers of video installations, has died at 86. The Italian artist, born in Reggio Emilia on April 3, 1940, died this Sunday in Venice, the city where he trained and which marked a good part of his career. But for three decades he also maintained a particularly close bond with Mallorca, to the point of establishing his residence in Santanyí and developing an important part of his work from the island.

The collective exhibition A media lumbre, an interterritorial exhibition on contemporary art and artisan crafts that is part of the Biennal B project, arrives in Mallorca. The exhibition project, which brings together 49 artists, will be on view on the island after its presentation in February at the Institut Valencià d’Art Modern (IVAM), and will be inaugurated in three different spaces and at different times: Wednesday, July 22, at Sa Refinadora (Marratxí), at 7 p.m.; and Thursday, July 23, at Casal Solleric, at 7:30 p.m., and at Es Baluard Museu d’Art Contemporani, at 8:30 p.m. The exhibition can be visited in Palma until October 18, 2026.
