Works from the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Collection

Lynette Yiadom-Boakye Works from the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Collection Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo 2nd November 2018 – 3rd February 2019 Lynette Yiadom-Boakye (UK, 1977) paints fascinating figures, full of enigma. They seem to be portraits, but they deceive the observer; the people portrayed are not real, but are rather imaginary characters who only exist in the world of painting. Drawing from both her own memories and imagination, the British artist of Ghanaian origin harnesses the idiosyncracies of painterly language to build the physical and psychological traits of the protagonists in her paintings. Lynette Yiadiom-Boakye writes with painting, through a skilful, almost scientific manipulation of color,...

The Owl with the Laser Eyes

Monster Chetwynd The Owl with the Laser Eyes Curated by Irene Calderoni Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo 2nd November 2018 – 31 March 2019 The work of Monster Chetwynd (UK, 1973) incorporates elements of folklore, pop culture (both ancient and contemporary), art history, cinema, and literature, in order to produce works that mock hierarchical structures, subvert rules, and invent new rites. Whether they be paintings, sculptures, videos, installations, or actions, her works are invariably imbued with a carnevalesque mockery which Michail Bachtin refers to as “a ritual, syncretistic entertainment form”, that is able to remove differences and boundaries between categories of objects, places, and people. In...

Vanilla Isis

Andra Ursuta Vanilla Isis Curated by Irene Calderoni Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo 2nd November 2018 – 31 March 2019 Andra Ursuta (Romania, 1979) creates works which tackle controversial, thorny issues using a language with a register ranging from grotesque to tragicomic and satirical. She often draws from reality, true stories, or personal memories to address cultural stereotypes, personal relationships, and the social phenomena of violence, both physical and symbolic. Vanilla Isis takes an irreverent look at the real and pretend extremisms manifest in contexts as disparate as terrorist groups and youth subcultures. Based on an analysis of the communicative strategies deployed by the Islamic State, whose...

WIL-O-WISP

Rachel Rose Wil-o-Wisp Curated by Erica F.

Rose’s commissioned video installation, Wil-o-Wisp, marks her first work based largely in live action, which she combines with her hallmark video editing to explore how coincidence and the practice of magic influence the fate of a woman in rural England during the 1500s and 1600s. Rose frames the story of her...

Reversed Theatre. Fabrizio Cotognini

Fabrizio Cotognini Reversed Theatre curated by Lorenzo Benedetti Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo September 13 – November 4 2017 Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo presents “Reversed Theatre”, a solo exhibition of works by Fabrizio Cotognini. Born in Macerata in 1983, over the years Cotognini developed an approach based on a constant comparison between different historical periods and the present time. The artist’s in-depth study of art history and archaeology led him to appropriate specific tools, techniques, and even display modes, which he carries to extremes and introduces into the contemporary lexicon through his works. In “Reversed Theatre” his interest in archaeology turns to a different temporal setting, that...

The speed achieved by eventual global synchronization—from the movement of people to the exchange of goods and capital, telecommunications, and later, financial speculation—produced the appetite for more and more surplus value, and the general ideology of acceleration. If Foucault described the biopolitical control of populations through the management of...

Today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow

Made up of four different works which were realised on the island of Samos, the installation shows images taken from the life inside and outside one of the hotspots where Middle-Eastern refugees - from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Palestine and Kurdistan - have been living for years by now, waiting to be transferred to terra firma and taken to other permanent refugee shelters. The work Happy Summer is exhibited on the entrance wall of the room: a beach towel representing touristic locations and “mustn’t miss” sightseeing spots of the island of Samos, was embroidered with the icon of a tent and...

Sanya Kantarovsky. Letdown

Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin November 3 2017 – February 18 2018 Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo presents Letdown, a solo exhibition of Sanya Kantarovsky which will include existing and new works produced specifically for the occasion. Kantarovsky, who was born in Moscow in 1982 and emigrated to the United States as child, has often used his work to measure his experience living under communism in the waining years of the Soviet Union against his experiences in the Western world. Using architecture as a both a metaphor and a framing device, the exhibition at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo renders these two aesthetic and political...

Ghita Skali – Palm Attacks: a few invasive species

Her work is marked by a strong concern for social issues and an interest in forms of subversion, and often deals with these subjects in an ironic way. Skali develops her works through different media such as writing, photography, video, performance and installation, structuring them around the representation of identity, even in its vernacular aspects. “Palm Attacks: a few invasive species” is the exhibition which Ghita Skali designed for the space of Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo – the institution that is hosting her very first Italian solo show. The artist will present new works combined into a one-off installation. Starting from a...

For the last chapter of The Institute, duo Louise Hervé & Chloé Maillet reveal important discoveries about the ocean water. After a long research on aquatic wildlife the artists present The Waterway a film unfolding its story at the crossroads of history and science fiction. Exploring aquatic fantasies, fictional marine creatures and the future of human eternity underwater, The Waterway is built around three narratives, aiming at uncovering and documenting the imagination of the water as objects and bodies’ conservation source. The setting is a sea resort on the Atlantic coast in France where three different groups of subaquatic archaeologists, scientists and the...

Ghita Skali

On September 21th Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo will open the first solo show in Italy of Ghita Skali (Casablanca, 1992), curated by Lorenzo Balbi. The exhibition is the result of a six-years-long collaboration with ENSBA Lyon - École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Artes. Starting from the observation of a new subtropical landscape tipology, Ghita Skali's research is focused on the aesthetic and social implications of artificial date palms, recently employed in the urban context. The plants are designed thanks to advanced technological and eingeneering studies and today they constitue the most modern camouflage system of telecommunications. At the same time, the...
