Izložba istražuje kategoriju Beskonačnog, Beskrajnog, Bezmjernog, u svojim višeslojnim oblicima: od nedovršenog do neograničenog, putem multidisciplinarnog pristupa gdje se umjetnost, filozofija, znanost te različite epohe susreću i ogledavaju. Ovom se izložbom završava i upotpunjuje izuzetno kvalitetna trilogija koju je začeo Axel Vervoordt u Veneciji 2007. god. izložbom Artempo: Where time becomes art – koja je nastojala istražiti odnos umjetnosti i vremena te njihovo prikazivanje putem različitih stoljeća, mjesta, tendencija i ekspresivnih izražaja – da bi zatim ciklus proslijedio 2008. god. pariškom izložbom »Academia: Qui es-tu?« koja se bazirala na transmisiji, prijenosu znanja i mudrosti te na uvijek prisutnoj ljudskoj kondiciji da si postavlja pitanja i traži odogovore. SSppiirriittuuaallnnii ppuutt Element koji ujedinjuje sve izložbe trilogije – osim izvanredno snažnog emotivnog učinka te intenzivnog doživljaja samog postava – jest propitivanje bezbrojnih mogućnosti relacija i odnosa među umjetničkim izričajima različitih perioda i kultura te naposlijetku, propitivanje samog smisla života. Upustiti se ukoštac s konceptom »beskrajnog« znači krenuti na spiritualni put. Čovjek po svojoj prirodi teži ka savršenstvu, ostvarenju, te se istovremeno neprestano mjeri s vlastitim ograničenjima, s nedostižnim. Beskrajno – kao put bez kraja, put prema potpunosti i (sa)znanju – izvor je inspiracije nebrojenim umjetnicima, znanstvenicima, književnicima još od početka čovjekove ere.

    April 26, 2012 MONA/TMAG Museum of Old and New Art/Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery announce Theatre of the World June 23, 2012 to April 8, 2013 Australia’s largest collaboration between a private and public institution, the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) and the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery (TMAG), announce a major winter exhibition commencing at MONA on June 23. The exhibition entitled, Theatre of the World, will present 4,000 years of creativity and rival the blockbuster shows held during this time at other major public institutions around Australia. It is timed to draw national and international visitors to Tasmania during the traditionally slow winter and spring months. Theatre of the World will include more than 160 works from David Walsh’s private collection and approximately 300 works from the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery’s collection. The works will be displayed across MONA’s temporary exhibition galleries alongside special commissions and selected loans from other major national and international collections. Visitors will enter a series of 16 galleries containing a prodigal and discontinuous array of objects reflecting some 4,000 years of human creativity. Works such as: taxidermic birds; parts of animal skeletons; ancient Chinese ceramics; water colour portraits from Georgian England; First World War “trench art”; Egyptian stone carvings, mummy cases, and funerary objects; African beadwork and woodwork; Aboriginal bark paintings and shields; natural history illustration; Melanesian artefacts; corals, and shells and animal skeletons; curiosities; contemporary art works, photographs and videos; geological specimens; scientific instruments; and teapots, along with more than 80 barkcloths from across the Pacific.

  • About the Venice Biennale Art in America, Sept, 2007 by Marcia E
    About the Venice Biennale Art in America, Sept, 2007 By Marcia E. Vetrocq There have been three occasions in the history of the Venice Biennale when the nature of American cultural influence has emerged as a central issue. The first was in 1964, when Robert Rauschenberg took home the Biennale prize for painting, a recognition tantamount to Europe's official concession that the art world's center of gravity had shifted from Paris to New York. The second was 1990, when Jenny Holzer's sumptuous installation of marble inlay and LED signs in the U.S. pavilion prompted widespread grousing that the Americans, who bagged that year's Golden Lion for the best national presentation, had bought their way to Biennale hegemony. The third occasion is now, with the 52nd edition of the venerable institution having been entrusted to its first American-born visual-arts director, Robert Storr. To be sure, just one of the Biennale's three components bears the director's imprint outright: the international group show, which is divided between the "Italy" pavilion in the municipal garden, or Giardini, and the cavernous former naval facility called the Arsenale, which lies between the Giardini at the city's eastern end and Piazza San Marco. (The Italy pavilion is not to be confused with Italy's own national presentation, called the "Italian" pavilion, which appears in the Arsenale.) The Biennale's defining feature remains the tradition of showcasing national presentations. This year, the number of countries sponsoring exhibitions reached a record 76, with the 31 original pavilions erected in the Giardini representing a minority stake for the first time.
