Between 1970 and 1971, Italian artists Paolo Scheggi and Vincenzo
Agnetti worked together on a project they called The Temple. Birth
of Eidos. Due to Scheggi's untimely death in 1971 at the age of 31,
the project remained unfinished. These previously unpublished
preparatory sketches, drawings, and notes, which were shown at the
Museo Novecento in Florence, are examined in essays by Ilaria
Bignotti and Bruno Cora and texts by Germana Agnetti and Cosima
Scheggi, daughters of the two artists and directors of their
respective archives. The concept of the project was to create a
sacred place, a temple, to contain linguistic objects representing
primary forms of community, subjectivity and power, linking these
with the artistic and theoretical research the two artists were
conducting at the time. Agnetti died 10 years after his friend and
colleague. His research followed a new route but remained closely
linked with that idea born in 1968, that "any work, any artistic
object, any gesture is a critical reminder of reality and our
existence". (Germana Agnetti).
