The Venice Biennale - 56th International Art Exhibition
The show consists of over 136 artists from fifty-three countries, and will feature a space for live programming in the Central Pavilion designed by David Adjaye called The Arena. “The linchpin of this program will be the epic live reading of all three volumes of Karl Marx’s Das Kapital,” Enwezor states. “Here, Das Kapital will serve as a kind of Oratorio that will be continuously read live, throughout the exhibition’s seven months’ duration.”
The 56th International Art Exhibition will form a unitary itinerary that starts at the Central Pavilion (Giardini) and continues at the Arsenale, with over 136 artists from 53 countries, of whom 89 will be showing here for the first time.
After having explained in October the main topics of All the World’s Futures, Okwui Enwezor ... - Exposition
Rethinking Location Anytime Anywhere Everything
Evolving from the work of twelve conceptual artists, filmmakers and photographers presenting alternate interpretations of fictional geographies, imaginary sites and 'mash-up' destinations, the exhibition Rethinking Location reconsiders the notion of location. In an era characterized by a rapidly changing perception of time and space due to ever increasing mobility, migration and globalisation, our understanding of what a location is has significantly tranformed. Taking these changes for granted, the exhibition investigates how artists consider location and geography as source material for their work.
The work of Rosa Barba and Taryn Simon often derives from an interest in unusual places or improbable situations: Barba's film The Empirical Effect (2010) explores a geographical 'Red Zone': weaving a fiction around the... - Exposition
Che cosa sono le nuvole? Artworks from the Enea Righi Collection
The Museion venue welcomes the Righi Collection, one of the most significant private collections of contemporary art, which to date has only been exhibited at the Collection Lambert in Avignon, France. The arrival of the collection represents an important exhibition opportunity for Museion, thanks to a ten year deposit of works in the museum.
The presentation of a selection of works from the Righi Collection aims to elicit reflections on the encounter between the public dimension and the intimate sphere of a private collection. The artists present in both collections, including Roni Horn (NY, 1955), Jana Sterback (Prague, 1955), Robert Barry (NY, 1936), Alighiero Boetti (Turin 1940 – Rome 1994) and Miroslaw Balka (Warsaw, 1958) represent the numerous convergences of vision between the museum and the private coll... - Exposition
Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors
Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors est le titre du premier film majeur de Sergei PARAJANOV (1924-1990), qui en 1964 révéla le cinéaste et artiste soviétique d'origine arménienne à la fois dans son pays et auprès de la critique internationale.
Relatant l'histoire dramatique de paysans dans les Carpates ukrainiennes, ce long métrage est à la fois un précieux témoignage ethnographique et un chef-d'œuvre d'innovation formelle. Rompant radicalement avec les normes esthétiques et thématiques du réalisme socialiste en vigueur, PARAJANOV y développe sa vision poétique à travers une palette d'expérimentations, de l'utilisation de la couleur pour exprimer des sentiments comme le combat contre la destin&e...
