In 2004 City of Melbourne established a new Sister City relationship with Milan, Italy. To mark the occasion and to acknowledge the contributions of the Italian community to the life of the city, City of Melbourne has developed a piazza in Carlton’s Argyle Square. Incorporating a commissioned public art work by Melbourne's Italian Porphyry artists, traditional paving in porphyry cobblestones, features a central solar clock in bronze, stainless steel and white Verdello stone. Designed by Andrea Tomaselli, the solar clock continues Melbourne's culture of public timekeeping.
Nel 2004 La citta’ di Melbourne si e'gemellata con la Citta' di Milano in Italia.In questa occasione si e' voluto riconoscere il contributo della comunita’ Italiana allo Sviluppo della Citta'. La Citta' di Melbourne ha creato una Piazza in Argyle Park - Carlton includendo un’opera artistica commissionata ad un gruppo di artisti chiamato Italian Porphyry. L'opera consiste in un' orologio solare centrale in bronzo, incorniciato da cubetti in Porfido Italiano, intarsi in Acciao e Verdello, la pietra Bianca di Trento – Italia. Disegnato da Andrea Tomaselli, l’Orologio Solare vuole continuare la cultura di Melbourne nell’uso di orologi pubblici

5 URBANART posters by ITALIAN PORPHYRY artists DIANNE BEEVERS and ANDREA TOMASELLI interpret the 4 elements AER, AQUA, TERRA and IGNIS represented in bronze in SOLARIS, the Solar Clock. Together the poster images represent the complex collaborative process of the art work’s creation from airy CONCEPT, to fluid DESIGN, material FABRICATION, and energetic INSTALLATION of the finished public art work.
