Places to see in ( Como - Italy ) Life Electric
Life Electric is a contemporary sculpture, dedicated to the physicist Alessandro Volta. Completed in 2015 it is located in Como, Italy. Life Electric was designed by Daniel Libeskind, and was a gift to Como, the city where the architect located his “Summer Session” school of architecture, in 1988. The sculpture was commissioned by the non profit association “Gli amici di Como”. The design of the fountain illustrates the evolution of modern architecture that took place over the period from 1920s to modern days, with the emergence of Rationalism. Libeskind’s creation has carried on the tradition of contemporary art in Como, and raised its profile.
The construction of Life Electric started in September 2014, with an estimated cost of €599,926.07. The project, reviewed by the architect and engineer Antonio Gianmarco Martorana Capsoni, and validated by the Mercury Engineering company SpA, was entirely donated to the municipality by Daniel Libeskind. Money for the construction work that helped to improve the resistance of the pier, and construction of the statue itself, was donated by Gli Amici Di Como.
The initial intention was to complete the project by the 1st May 2015, the same day as the inauguration of Expo 2015, but, after 119 additional days of work, the project was finally completed in August 2015. There had been nineteen days of delay due to bad weather, and twenty-five days for a summer break in August. The inauguration took place on the 2nd October 2015, and was attended by the mayor of Como, Daniel Libeskind with his family and Luigi Martino Volta, the nephew of Alessandro Volta
Life Electric is located on the very end of the Diga Foranea pier, which was consolidated before the construction of the statue. The pier is accessible to visitors, and the entrance can be reached from the Lungolago Mafalda di Savoia, which ends with the Tempio Voltiano. The project’s intention was to convey a sense of continuity through the approach to the statue. The location was chosen to give greater visibility to the sculpture, and to celebrate both Volta and the scientist Piero Caldirola, after whom the pier is named
The sculpture is 13.75 meters tall (14.25 including the base). It has the appearance of two opposing sinusoidal projections. At its base there is a circular containment wall made of stones 75 cm high, containing a stretch of water in which the monument is reflected. The water at the base is 10 cm deep, and its bottom is decorated with a squared motif. The base has been modified to let people sit beneath the statue, and look over the surroundings from a central point of view.
Life Electric takes inspiration from the electric tension existing between the two poles of a battery. It creates an idealistic third pole, located between the Faro Voltiano and the Tempio Voltiano, both attributed to the battery inventor, Alessandro Volta. The sculpture is designed to suggest connections among three of the five natural elements: light, wind and water.

Life Electric
The Life Electric was given from Daniel Libeskind to Como as a gift. It is dedicated to Alessandro Volta and located on the first basin of Lake Como. Let's see how it reflects Lake Como!
LIFE ELECTRIC COUNTDOWN (1° ANNIVERSARY)
351.500 visitatori negli ultimi 4 mesi.
In occasione del primo anniversario dall’inaugurazione di Life Electric – era il 2 Ottobre 2015 – c’è solo un modo per celebrare questa ricorrenza.
Svelare il numero dei visitatori.
Un dato che, da qualche mese, è possibile calcolare con esattezza grazie a un conta-persone installato sulla diga foranea “Piero Caldirola”.
Da quando il dispositivo è entrato in funzione a fine maggio fino ad oggi, hanno visitato il monumento 351.500 persone.
Sono loro, insieme a tutti i visitatori che ancora arriveranno nei prossimi mesi e nei prossimi anni, a celebrare nel miglior modo questo anniversario.
Ogni giorno, Life Electric, l’installazione realizzata su progetto di Daniel Libeskind e donata alla città da Consorzio Como Turistica e Amici di Como, attira migliaia di persone.
Non occorre nessuna festa particolare, quindi, per vedere il tondello della diga ancora pieno di gente.
Ricordiamo inoltre che Amici di Como e Consorzio Como Turistica si sono impegnati per cinque anni nell’opera di manutenzione ordinaria e straordinaria dell’opera e che Life Electric è stata realizzata grazie al contributo di sponsor privati, aziende, associazioni e Fondazione Cariplo.
GRAZIE a tutti!

Places to see in ( Como - Italy ) Tempio Voltiano
The Tempio Voltiano is a museum in the city of Como, Italy that is dedicated to Alessandro Volta, a prolific scientist and the inventor of the electrical battery. Volta was born in Como in 1745, held his first professorship there until 1779, and retired to Como in 1819.
The neoclassical building was designed by Federico Frigerio (1873–1959). It was completed in 1927 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the scientist's death, but it was inaugurated only in 1928. It hosts a collection of scientific instruments used by the physicist including his early voltaic piles (batteries). The first floor has a display of his personal belongings and his awards.
It is one of the most visited museums in town. The temple was featured on the back of the 10,000 lire banknote, while Volta's portrait was depicted on the front of the same banknote. Banknotes based on the Italian lira have since been replaced by notes denominated in Euros. Near the Tempio Voltiano are the new statue by Daniel Libeskind named Life Electric and the Faro Voltiano. both dedicated to Volta.

A Walk Around Como & Brunate, Italy
My final destination of an action packed day was Como itself - a city situated at the southern tip of lake Como and home to just under 100,000 people. After taking a look around the old city itself, including the impressive Como Cathedral and the Life Electric sculpture, I pick up a funicular and head up to Brunate. It turns out to be an awesome place to end my day as I'm able to watch the sun setting beyond Como 1500 feet below.
