"Mariano Fortuny. the
silk and the velvet" |
from
march 27th to july 18th 2010 |
|
|
| |
|
Palazzo Fortuny, San Marco -
Venezia
"Mariano Fortuny was a great modern artist whose creations
ranged from the development of theatrical lighting to the
invention of particular methods for dyeing and printing
textiles. Knowledge of the work in the collections of
Palazzo Fortuny has enabled me to trace parallels with my
own research as an artist. Questions relating to light,
form, materials, structure, decorative arts and serial
production are at the core of my concerns. I see this
exhibition as a opportunity to create a dialogue between
works of art from different periods; to engage with the work
and spirit of Fortuny." This is how Henri Foucault
interprets and explains his presence here at Palazzo Fortuny.
Sosein and Satori, the two series of work on display,
comprise photographic images that concentrate on different
aspects of corporeality. Each image is either punctured or
re-defined by the dense agglomerations of steel pins that
form a layer above it. In effect, the work focuses on the
perception of light, on a redefinition of the sense of
volume, on the relation between the two- and
three-dimensional, between form and structure, between
photography and sculpture.
Opening hours: Daily
from October 9th to November 7th 2004, ground floor.
Ticket: Adults:
€ 9; Concession: € 6.50 children from 6 to 14 years;
