Scopri di piùFondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo presents a new installation of Parallel I-IV, the last completed work by the artist and filmaker Harun Farocki (1944-2014). “I am researching these strange new images which are somehow on the verge of competing with and defeating finally the cinematic-photographic image. The era of reproduction seems to be over, and the era of construction of a new world seems to be somehow on the horizon, or not on the horizon, it is already here.” With these words Farocki describes the series of 4 pieces entitled Parallel, a reflection on the status of the image in the digital age, a rigorous structural analysis...

Scopri di piùCurated by Tanya Barson Inspired by the writings of philosopher Vilem Flusser, the exhibition seeks to develop and expand the notion of a philosophy of photography or, as Flusser put it, to ‘contribute to a discussion about the subject “photography” in a philosophical spirit.’ It aims to show how photography became a key tool for the development of human consciousness in relation to the ‘worldhood of the world’ and also reflects on the question of the philosophical status of photography at the moment when Flusser was writing, beginning with ‘Towards a Philosophy of Photography’(1983) and continuing with ‘Into the Universe of...
Scopri di piùUnemployment is the latest chapter in a cycle of exhibitions that speculate on nascent political, economic, and cultural issues that are likely to define the coming decades. Adopting a narrative approach, they develop several themes and move chronologically from the observation of the present to a prediction about the future. Kline’s previous project Freedom (2015-2016), the beginning of the cycle, centered on the possibility of political action, the potential of political speech, and the fate of democracy itself in societies where the social commons has been privatized. The installation was inspired by Zuccotti Park, made famous by the Occupy Wall...

These accumulators of objects and junk have set up their new courts in former dancehalls and nightclubs, and are accompanied by a...

Scopri di piùcurated by Ludovica Carbotta & Valerio Del Baglivo For the second chapter of The Institute, artist Kapwani Kiwanga presents Afrogalactica (2011–on-going), an epic narrative of the Afronaut Odyssey. Influenced by earlier studies in anthropology, the work of Kapwani Kiwanga often merges fiction and historical facts.

Presented as a complex organism of different elements, where multiple stories emerged, Afrogalactica takes the form of research in which vast fields of knowledge relating to high and low elements of culture are blended together. At the...

Scopri di piùHow can we narrate contemporary art to children? How can we take the museum to the school setting? How can we combine art and the English language?

Scopri di piùProject: the idea of an accessible museum involves that each visitor should be able to take advantage of the cultural content offered by the museum. The itineraries and activities proposed by the Educational Department of the Foundation are useful steps towards an easier, more active participation in the cultural life of the city. These reflections led us to subscribe to the Manifesto per la Cultura Accessibile, a common declaration in which the main cultural institutions in Turin and its surroundings pledge to work on issues of cultural accessibility. The Educational Department organizes exhibition visits and workshops in collaboration with Disability day care...
