conference: 4:30 pm
until 28th September
Originally created for the bunKerart space in Milan (Italy) curated by RAM radioartemobile, the installation involves two major protagonists of Italian culture.
The installation is composed of painted stoneware tiles, covering the entire space with alternate green and cobalt on a white background. The floor is surrounded by an aural installation by Gianna Nannini. This track, conceived to accompany the steps of the public on Accardi’s floor, was recorded by Nannini in Moscow’s Red Square, later revised.
For this new edition, the installation by Carla Accardi is enriched by further works: along with 3 large-scale pieces created specifically for the Muscovite space, for the first time on exhibition are her famous “Lenzuoli”, painted sheets from the 1970s, taken from the artist’s private collection.
The installation’s next stop will be AuditoriumArte – Auditorium Parco della Musica di Roma from 21st November 2008 to 7th January 2009.
The event is covered by a bulletin in Italian and Russian with a critical text by Achille Bonito Oliva.
The exhibition, curated and promoted by RAM radioartemobile (Rome), is sponsored by the Italian Cultural Institute in Moscow and has been aided by generous contribution from the Enel electrical company.
