Venice. . . the Italian Pavilion





The Italian Pavilion, ex-monastery of S. Mary Virgin

Italian Pavilion, Garden of the Virgins, Venice

Inauguration of the Italian Pavilion 2013

“Vice Versa” is the title of the exhibition at  the Italian Pavilion of the 55. Biennial International Art Exposition in Venice. The Pavilion is composed of seven rooms,  seven  settings,  each hosting 2 artists who interact in a dual dialogue.
The show becomes an ideal voyage into Italian art of today and yesterday containing  installations, sculpture, paintings, sound and visual interventions both inside and outside of the Pavilion.


Names of  the 14 Italian artists.

Marcello Maloberti (1966) e Flavio Favelli (1967) - autobiografy e immaginary collettive
Massimo Bartolini (1962) e Francesca Grilli (1978) - contrapposition between silence e sound – freedom of speech and censure.
Fabio Mauri (1926-2009) e Francesco Arena (1978) -  our relationship with history
Sislej Xhafa (1970) e Piero Golia (1974) - culture e popular traditions
Luigi Ghirri (1943-1992) e Luca Vitone (1964) – landscape suspended beween vision and memory
Gianfranco Baruchello (1924) e Elisabetta Benassi (1966) - tension between fragment and system, ambition to archiviate and the impossibility to classify  knowledge.
Giulio Paolini (1940) e Marco Tirelli (1956) - art as an illusion
