  • Fondazione Prada Presents “Jannis Kounellis,” an Exhibition Curated by Germano Celant, from 11 May to 24 November 2019 in Venice
    FONDAZIONE PRADA PRESENTS “JANNIS KOUNELLIS,” AN EXHIBITION CURATED BY GERMANO CELANT, FROM 11 MAY TO 24 NOVEMBER 2019 IN VENICE Venice, 15 March 2019 – Fondazione Prada presents “Jannis Kounellis,” curated by Germano Celant, the major retrospective dedicated to the artist following his death in 2017. The exhibition runs from 11 May to 24 November 2019 (press preview taking place on Wednesday 8 May) at the historic palazzo of Ca’ Corner della Regina, Fondazione Prada’s Venetian venue. Developed in collaboration with Archivio Kounellis, the project brings together 70 works from 1958 to 2016, from both Italian and international art institutions and museums, including Tate Modern (London), Centre Pompidou - Musée national d’art moderne (Paris), Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum (Rotterdam), Walker Art Center (Minneapolis) and Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea (Turin), as well as from important private collections both in Italy and abroad. The show explores the artistic and exhibition history of Jannis Kounellis (Piraeus 1936 – Rome 2017), highlighting key moments in the evolution of his visual poetics and establishing a dialogue between his works and the eighteenth-century spaces of Ca’ Corner della Regina. The artist’s early works, originally exhibited between 1960 and 1966, are presented in two spaces on the first floor of the Venetian palazzo and deal with urban language. In an early phase, these paintings reproduce actual writings and signs from the streets of Rome. Later on, the artist transferred black letters, arrows and numbers onto white canvases, paper or other surfaces, in a language deconstruction that expresses a fragmentation of the real. From 1964 onward, Kounellis addressed subjects taken from nature, from sunsets to roses— these latter represented on canvases using automatic buttons.

  • A Nomad in the City Germano Celant
    A Nomad in the City Germano Celant When Charles Simonds embarked on his artistic career between 1969 and 1971, he oper- ated in a setting that lay outside the traditional bounds of art: the street. He immediately sought to make his interventions burst from a context experienced and shared by others, by people outside of the world of art. His intention was to create art everywhere, in all kinds of settings. Ever since his first interventions in the streets of New York (1972, facing page and top right), he has managed to avoid the distortions of the pristine and aseptic space of the gallery or museum, creating works that have blended into the landscape of the city—a setting where the public is not inveigled by the communicative power of the sacred place, which makes the artistic object a separate entity; where instead the work is immersed in the chaos of life; and where the poetic and visual impulse is entrusted to its autonomous power of persuasion, without any defense. Urban space, with all of its communicative characteris- tics, is taken on for its centripetal force, prior to any artistic intervention. Simonds chose the urban landscape for its tension and its secret power, which is not the repetitive power of the “white cube,” but one of drama and tragedy, of magic and singularity. His choice, which he shared with artists such as Gordon Matta-Clark (bottom right), questioned the abstract and ideal dimensions of minimal art.1 His aim was to reject the environmental homogenization of the intervention and to enter the reality of the urban and architectural configuration, thus introducing the notions of hazard, risk, and chance and plunging into real life.

  • JANNIS KOUNELLIS Massimo De Carlo Is Pleased to Present a New
    JANNIS KOUNELLIS Massimo De Carlo is pleased to present a new exhibition by Jannis Kounellis, this will be the artists first gallery show in Hong Kong. Jannis Kounellis was born in Piraeus, Athens, in 1936. In 1956 he moved to Rome where he enrolled at the Academy of Fine Arts. Jannis Kounellis has repeatedly described himself as a Greek person, but self-identified as an Italian artist, who immersed himself immediately in the cultural heritage of Italy. As a participant in the famous Arte Povera group exhibition organized by Germano Celant in Genoa in 1967, Jannis Kounellis was quickly considered one of the major representatives of this artistic movement. Arte Povera was the most significant and influential avant-garde movement to emerge in Europe in the 1960s. Believing that modernity threatened to erase our sense of memory along with all signs of the past, the Arte Povera group sought to contrast the new and the old in order to complicate our sense of the effects of passing time. In Rome Kounellis was able to experiment and define his eclectic practice that encompasses a wide range of materials and mediums, converging paint, sculpture and performance. The exhibition at Massimo De Carlo gallery is structured as a small retrospective that offers to the viewer an overview of Kounellis's most iconic works from the decades that go from 1983 until 2012. The show shines a light on the materiality and three-dimensional elements of his canvases and installations, comprised of ready-made objects that vary from natural elements such as stones and feathers to man-made elements like a knife or a shoe.

He used it to describe the work of a group of young boundaries between the exhibition space and the world Italian artists who, since the mid-1960s, had been working in outside, often making works in the landscape, or bringing radically new ways, breaking with the past and entering a elements from the landscape into the gallery (see key-work challenging dialogue with trends in Europe and the US.

  • The Politics of Arte Povera
    Living Spaces: the Politics of Arte Povera Against a background of new modernities emerging as alternatives to centres of tradition in the Italy of the so- called “economic miracle”, a group formed around the critic Germano Celant (1940) that encapsulated the po- etry of arte povera. The chosen name (“poor art”) makes sense in the Italy of 1967, which in a few decades had gone from a development so slow it approached underdevelopment to becoming one of the economic driving forces of Europe. This period saw a number of approaches, both nostalgic and ideological, towards the popular, archaic and timeless world associated with the sub-proletariat in the South by, among others, the writer Carlo Levi (1902-1975) and the poet and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini (1922-1975). Fibonacci Napoli (Fabricca a San Giovan- ni a Teduccio), 1971, a work which pre- sents a numerical sequence that com- plicates and humanizes the simplistic logic of minimalist artists, while adding a political component: the numbers relate to the workers who join a mensa operaia (workers’ table), a place as much to do with alienation as unionist conspiracy. Arte povera has been seen as “a meeting point between returning and progressing, between memory and anticipation”, a dynamic that can be clearly understood given the ambiguity of Italy, caught be- tween the weight of a legendary past and the alienation of industrial development; between history and the future. It was an intellectual setting in which the povera artists embarked on an anti-modern approach to the arts, criticising technology and industrialization, and opposed to min- imalism.

  • GERMANO CELANT: PRESENT and CONTINGENT Stefano Chiodi
    GERMANO CELANT: PRESENT AND CONTINGENT Stefano Chiodi Glasses on, pen in hand, glancing at the papers resting on his thighs with the serious air of a young intellectual. This is how Germano Celant appears in a photograph taken in the early days of October 1968 at the Antichi Arsenali in Amalfi. Celant – who died at the age of eighty on 29 April in Milan – had just inaugurated one of the fundamental exhibitions in the artistic landscape, Arte povera + Azioni povere. The exhibition, the “meeting” (an open-ended discussion between critics, artists and the audience which included the other four men in the photograph; Tommaso Trini, Achille Bonito Oliva, Filiberto Menna, and Marcello Rumma), and the actions performed by the artists under the gothic vaults of the Arsenali, in the streets of the coastal town or by the sea, represented the eruption of a spirit of radical novelty in which works and performances gave life to an anarchic mixture of materials, images, bodies, and thoughts. An unconventional and exemplary event, Amalfi initiated a model of the exhibition as a place where art “happens” in continuity with life. Alongside other new names in the international art scene, most of the artists exhibited in Amalfi were part of the Arte Povera group launched by Celant in an exhibition at La Bertesca in Genoa the year before. In Celant’s manifesto Arte povera. Appunti per una guerriglia, (“Arte Povera. Notes for a guerrilla war”) published in November 1967 in Flash Art, he drew a map of the most recent Italian artistic research which underscored its revolutionary impulse against the expressive languages, ideas and institutions of art.

  • Guida Alle Mostre Di Venezia
    Ragionate da soli la vostra guida Si fa presto a dire Biennale, ma andare a Venezia per visitare mostre e padiglioni è un'impresa titanica; soprattutto considerando la proverbiale lentezza a cui la città induce, tra passaggi in traghetto e lunghe camminate perdendosi fra ponti, calli e sestrieri. Per visitare tutte le esposizioni collaterali e i padiglioni nazionali sparsi fra i Giardini, l'Arsenale, la città e le isole, abbiamo organizzato una guida che, a differenza di tutte le altre, mette a fuoco in primo luogo i temi e i protagonisti di ogni mostra da qui a novembre. Le esposizioni sono raggruppate a seconda della prossimità delle loro sedi suggerendo una sorta di percorso che però offre in qualsiasi momento la possibilità di deviare e di decidere da dove ri-partire.
