Venice: Ca Corner della Regina – Fondazione Prada: When Attitude Becomes Form: Bern 1969/Venice 2013 exhibition

 
 Venice: Ca Corner della Regina – Fondazione Prada: When Attitude Becomes Form: Bern 1969/Venice 2013 exhibition. At The Fondazione Prada, until November 3, the exhibition When Attitude Becomes Form: Bern 1969/Venice 2013, curated by Germano Celant in dialogue with Thomas Demand and Rem Koolhaas.   A novel remaking, the project reconstructs Live in Your Head. When Attitudes Become Form”, an exhibition conceived and organized by Harald Szeemann at the Bern Kunsthalle in 1969, which went down in history for the curator’s radical approach to exhibition practice, conceived as a linguistic medium.  All the art has been collected and the very halls that characterized the Kunsthalle’s exhibition area have been recreated, all using documentation, site-specific interventions, photographs, video, and original briefs.
