Prefazione Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo PREFAZIONE La Residenza per Giovani Curatori stranieri nasce nel 2007 grazie alla preziosa collaborazione della Compagnia di San Paolo che anche quest’anno, per il tredicesimo anno consecutivo, ha rinnovato il suo impegno a sostegno del progetto. Nel corso degli anni, la residenza si è affermata come un programma di formazione curatoriale unico sul panorama internazionale. La sua struttura si basa su due momenti fondamentali per lo sviluppo delle capacità critiche e professionali dei curatori: in primo luogo la ricerca approfondita sul territorio, ideata e coordinata da un curatore italiano che rappresenta anche il punto di riferimento per i curatori in residenza durante il periodo trascorso in Italia; in secondo luogo la preparazione di una mostra conclusiva negli spazi della Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, che viene organizzata grazie al completo supporto e alla collaborazione professionale del team della Fondazione. L’obiettivo principale del progetto è dare l’opportunità a tre giovani curatori stranieri di entrare in contatto con la scena artistica italiana e conoscere i nostri artisti emergenti, incoraggiando un dialogo tra scena locale e contesto europeo e mondiale. Nel corso di questi tredici anni, trentanove giovani curatori hanno partecipato alla residenza, sotto la guida di sei curatori italiani differenti, mentre più di novanta artisti italiani sono stati coinvolti nelle mostre finali, selezionati tra le centinaia incontrati durante il viaggio in Italia. Molti dei curatori 2 3 Foreword The main objective of the project is to offer an entryway for Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo three young foreign curators into the Italian art scene and give them the opportunity to get to know our emerging art- The Young Curators Residency Programme was born in ists, encouraging a dialogue between the local, the Europe- 2007 thanks to our valuable collaboration with the Compag- an and the global context.

La qualità dei progetti espositivi conclusivi premia la scelta compiuta dalla Fondazione tredici anni fa: quella di impegnarsi a favore della sperimentazione curatoriale, capace di realizzare progetti di ricerca che si rivelano però fruibili anche da un più ampio pubblico. La mostra conclusiva di questa tredicesima edizione, intitolata Capriccio 2000, ne è un felice esempio. L’eccellenza delle mostre conclusive riflette l’attenzione con cui vengono scelti ogni anno i tre partecipanti al programma: le candidature vengono segnalate dai Direttori dei più prestigiosi programmi curatoriali a livello internazionale, per poi essere vagliate da una giuria internazionale che seleziona i tre partecipanti a seguito di colloqui approfonditi. I curatori in residenza nel 2019 – Rosa Tyhurst, Jeppe Ugelvig e Hannah Zafiropoulos – sono stati scelti da una giuria composta, tra gli altri, da Andrea Viliani, Direttore del Madre Museo d’arte contemporanea Donnaregina di Napoli, e Mark Rappolt, Editor in Chief di ArtReview e fondatore di ArtReview Asia. Desidero ringraziare ancora una volta la Compagnia di San Paolo per la sua opera di sostegno e promozione dell’arte contemporanea italiana. Un grazie a Lucrezia Calabrò Visconti, per la professionalità e l’entusiasmo con cui dall’anno scorso segue i cu ratori in residenza.

The curators selected in 2019–Rosa Tyhurst, Jeppe Ugelvig, and Hannah Zafiropoulos–were chosen by a jury composed by Andrea Viliani, Director of the Madre Museum of Con- temporary Art Donnaregina of Naples, and Mark Rappolt, Editor-in-Chief of ArtReview and founder of ArtReview Asia, among others. I would like to thank once again the Compagnia di San Paolo for its work in supporting and promoting Italian Introduzione INTRODUZIONE Lucrezia Calabrò Visconti La residenza per giovani curatori internazionali si struttura come un periodo di ricerca intensiva sul territorio italiano che culmina con un progetto di mostra collettivo. Mentre l’accento della residenza è sulla promozione di una piattaforma di dialogo e crescita per l’arte italiana in un’ottica a lungo termine, la contingenza spazio-temporale della mostra funge da bussola per orientare la ricerca sulla scena nazionale nei mesi di residenza. La mostra è anche occasione per supportare il lavoro di una selezione di artisti emergenti, attraverso un progetto che spesso ha sviluppato narrazioni curatoriali rilevanti per la pratica curatoriale nel suo complesso. La modalità operativa della residenza solleva una questione al contempo etica ed estetica: in che modo i tre curatori possono restituire uno spaccato della scena italiana, identificando una chiave di lettura che parli al sistema dell’arte locale e altresì al discorso culturale globale? La questione è al cuore della pratica curatoriale per come si è formalizzata negli ultimi trent’anni. Sempre più spesso il curatore incarna le ambizioni e le problematiche della contemporaneità globalizzata, trovandosi invitato a proporre tematiche indirizzate al discorso culturale internazionale, attraverso il “caso studio” del contesto geopolitico specifico in cui di volta in volta è chiamato ad operare. Il suo compito delicato diventa quello di evitare l’appiattimento del discorso locale ai temi dominanti

  • The THREE's a CROWD
    The THREE’S A CROWD exhibition covers areas ranging from Hong Kong to Slavic vixa parties. It looks at modern-day streets and dance floors, examining how – through their physical presence in the public space – bodies create temporary communities, how they transform the old reality and create new conditions. And how many people does it take to make a crowd. The autonomous, affect-driven and confusing social body is a dynamic 19th-century construct that stands in opposition to the concepts of capitalist productivity, rationalism, and social order. It is more of a manifestation of social dis- order: the crowd as a horde, the crowd as a swarm. But it happens that three is already a crowd. The club culture remembers cases of criminalizing the rhythmic movement of at least three people dancing to the music based on repetitive beats. We also remember this pandemic year’s spring and autumn events, when the hearts of the Polish police beat faster at the sight of crowds of three and five people. Bodies always function in relation to other bodies. To have no body is to be nobody. Bodies shape social life in the public space through movement and stillness, gath- ering and distraction. Also by absence. Regardless of whether it is a grassroots form of bodily (dis)organization, self-cho- reographed protests, improvised social dances, artistic, activist or artivist actions, bodies become a field of social and political struggle.

  • The DIY Careers of Techno and Drum 'N' Bass Djs in Vienna
    Cross-Dressing to Backbeats: The Status of the Electroclash Producer and the Politics of Electronic Music Feature Article David Madden Concordia University (Canada) Abstract Addressing the international emergence of electroclash at the turn of the millenium, this article investigates the distinct character of the genre and its related production practices, both in and out of the studio. Electroclash combines the extended pulsing sections of techno, house and other dance musics with the trashier energy of rock and new wave. The genre signals an attempt to reinvigorate dance music with a sense of sexuality, personality and irony. Electroclash also emphasizes, rather than hides, the European, trashy elements of electronic dance music. The coming together of rock and electro is examined vis-à-vis the ongoing changing sociality of music production/ distribution and the changing role of the producer. Numerous women, whether as solo producers, or in the context of collaborative groups, significantly contributed to shaping the aesthetics and production practices of electroclash, an anomaly in the history of popular music and electronic music, where the role of the producer has typically been associated with men. These changes are discussed in relation to the way electroclash producers Peaches, Le Tigre, Chicks on Speed, and Miss Kittin and the Hacker often used a hybrid approach to production that involves the integration of new(er) technologies, such as laptops containing various audio production softwares with older, inexpensive keyboards, microphones, samplers and drum machines to achieve the ironic backbeat laden hybrid electro-rock sound. Keywords: electroclash; music producers; studio production; gender; electro; electronic dance music Dancecult: Journal of Electronic Dance Music Culture 4(2): 27–47 ISSN 1947-5403 ©2011 Dancecult http://dj.dancecult.net DOI: 10.12801/1947-5403.2012.04.02.02 28 Dancecult 4(2) David Madden is a PhD Candidate (A.B.D.) in Communications at Concordia University (Montreal, QC).
