The signs not only recall the physical places of international markets, from Piccadilly Circus to Times Square, but also evoke the iconic role played by neon in twentieth-century culture: since when over a hundred years ago, a Parisian barber lit the first sign in a small shop called Palais Coiffeur, neon has gone from being a lively tool capable of attracting tourists to restaurants, shops or snack bars, to becoming a recognisable feature of major cities, and is now a favourite material of many contemporary artists.
The famous Piper disco (1966-69), reconstructed for the occasion, not only evokes a symbol of the era frequented by the international creative milieu based in Turin, but also emphasises the iconic role played by the neon sign in contemporary culture.
The signboard of a place and the call to end up again all-round.
