In the Olive, we recognize the culture-creating base of Mediterranean civilization, and its importance goes far beyond the nutritive value of its rich juice. For thousands of years the oil has worked in spiritual anointings as much as it enlightened the temples and hearts. It became the sign of new beginning and in their groves were held powerful and groundbreaking speeches. The Superolive becomes the cipher of geographical, cultural and – today more important than ever – social contexts.

On our vernissage everything comes together, firstly a constantly growing group of people from Berlin who appreciate the extraordinary olive oil of Saverio Ciaccio, secondly Saverio himself – and this year in particular, Berlin artists, each with its own aesthetic position contribute to decipher the olive.
As a Roman architect, Saverio has always been busy with constructions – in addition, SUPEROLIVE is working with the construction of new social relationships, through which a participatory design of European landscapes becomes possible. The artistic statements on the subject are diverse and opens up the thematic perspective, the production of a direct authentic, sustainable trade, a mindfulness of the essential, in a lustful, ironic and poetic way. The entanglement, as well as the organization of these elements determining our lives comes to an exemplary oppositional sketch, which changes something for the positive, at least for the participating people. We would be happy if you join us!

The gallery Crystal Ball and Saverio Ciaccio invite you to the great SUPEROLIVE. We look forward to seeing you!
