Giulia Cenci – Fango
Mostra personale dell’artista Giulia Cenci (1988, Cortona, IT). L’artista presenta per la prima volta in Italia l’imponente installazione realizzata a settembre 2019 all’Institute of Contemporary Art, Villeurbanne/Rhône-Alpes, durante la 15° Biennale de Lyon.
Comunicato stampa
Segnala l'evento
“Vi sono pezzi di questo e pezzi di quello, ma nessuno si incastra con l’altro. Eppure, molto stranamente, al limite di tutto questo caos, ogni cosa comincia a fondersi di nuovo. Una mela e un’arancia polverizzate sono alla fine la stessa cosa, non è forse così? Non puoi trovare differenza fra un abito ben fatto e uno malfatto se sono entrambi ridotti a brandelli, giusto? A un certo punto le cose si disintegrano in sozzura, polvere o rottami, e quanto rimane è qualcosa di nuovo, qualche particella o agglomerato di materia che non si riesce più a identificare.” (Paul Auster, Nel paese delle ultime cose)SpazioA ha il piacere di presentare, sabato 12 settembre, 2020, ore 18, la mostra personale di Giulia Cenci(1988, Cortona) fango. L’imponente installazione realizzata a settembre 2019 all’Institute of Contemporary Art, Villeurbanne/Rhône-Alpes, durante la 15° Biennale de Lyon sarà presentata per la prima volta in Italia negli spazi della galleria.fango è una serie di installazioni radicali fatte di sculture e frammenti di una realtà artificiale, nel tentativo di creare un habitat condizionato dalle proprie regole e dinamiche. Ripetizione e riproduzione, frammentazione, aggregazione di avanzi e ibridi di materiali con le loro fonti originarie, offrono riferimenti per sculture invadenti e sproporzionate che generano un ambiente affollato e caotico.All’ingresso, l’installazione rivela subito la complessità dei suoi materiali: le proporzioni delle sculture e la loro relazione con il corpo dello spettatore, i cui movimenti e punti di vista sono condizionati e forzati dalla frequenza degli elementi nello spazio.Parti di macchine, motori, marchingegni tecnologici, elementi tratti dal paesaggio urbano sono meticolosamente mescolati e modificati da e con i resti di materiali naturali come l’argilla e la polvere per ottenere qualità incerte e complesse in cui le fonti che costituiscono i lavori vengono trattate senza considerazione per la loro natura o il loro valore. Tecniche senza tempo di modellazione, scultura e figurazione sono mescolate insieme e contaminate con i processi produttivi e i materiali più sofisticati di oggi in modo da creare un paesaggio inedito che mette in discussione la condizione di appartenenza di ogni momento, stato o composto chimico.Figure antropomorfe (animali che indossano abbigliamento umano in pose umane) popolano questo paesaggio insieme a figure immobili, spesso in dialogo reciproco o in pose rigide e contorte, con una dimensione e altezza nello spazio che rispettano sempre la scala umana.In questo habitat saturato, i corpi degli spettatori diventano parte dello spettacolo complessivo, una componente vitale del lavoro: le loro presenze sono destinate a mutarsi in visioni frammentarie incarnate dal paesaggio stesso, una materia supplementare che reagisce al “resto”.

“There are pieces of this and pieces of that, but none of it fits together. And yet, very strangely, at the limit of all this chaos, everything begins to fuse again. A pulverized apple and a pulverized orange are finally the same thing, aren’t they? You can’t tell the difference between a good dress and a bad dress if they’re both turn to shreds, can you? At a certain point, things disintegrate into muck, or dust, or scraps, and what you have is something new, some particle or agglomeration of matter that cannot be identified. It is a clump, a mote, a fragment of the world that as no place: a cipher of it-ness”. ( Paul Auster,In the Country of Last Things )SpazioA is proud to present, Saturday September 12, 2020, 6pm, a solo show by Giulia Cenci (1988, Cortona), entitled fango.The large installation made at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Villeurbanne/Rhône-Alpes during the 15th Lyons Biennial in September 2019 will be presented in the gallery for the first time in Italy.fango consists of radical installations made out of sculptures and fragments of a manmade reality in an attempt to create a habitat guided by its own rules and dynamics. Repetition and reproduction, fragmentation, aggregations of leftovers and hybrids of materials with their original sources provide references for intrusive and disproportionate sculptures that produce a dense and chaotic environment.Upon entry, the installation immediately reveals the complexity of its materials: the sculptures’ proportions, and their relation with the viewer’s body, whose movements and points of view are guided and forced by the frequency of the elements in the space.Parts of machines, engines, technological trappings, elements pulled from urban landscape are carefully mixed and modified by and with remnants of natural material like clay and dust to obtain uncertain, complex characteristics in which the sources forming the works are treated without a thought to their nature or value. Timeless techniques of modeling, sculpting, and shaping are jumbled together and soiled with today’s most sophisticated production processes and materials to create a new landscape that questions the state of belonging to any given time, state, or chemical compound. Anthropomorphic figures (animals wearing human apparel in human poses) inhabit this landscape as still figures, often in conversation to each other or in rigid, contorted poses whose size and height in the space are always on human scale.In this saturated habitat, the viewers’ bodies become part of the total view, a vital component of the work, their presences destined to become fragmented views embodied by this landscape themselves, additional matter in reaction with “the rest”.
