Corner della Regina
“The
Boat was Leaking. The Captain Lied.”
A
trans-media exhibition project, “The
Boat was Leaking. The Captain Lied.”, until November 26, is the result of
an ongoing, in-depth exchange between writer and filmmaker Alexander Kluge, artist Thomas
Demand, stage and costume designer Anna
Viebrock, and curator Udo Kittelmann.
In a dialogue of polyphonic references and constellations between the
contributions of each artist, the exhibition spans film, art, and theater. The
convergence of visual spaces and scene settings to create different atmospheres
turns the historic palazzo of Ca’ Corner
della Regina into a metaphorical site to discover the worlds we live in.

Ancarani - Rio Grande Postcards from the Border
Video
artist and filmmaker Yuri Ancarani has been chosen by historic Caffe Florian,
in Piazza San Marco as the artist for the 2017 edition of Temporanea. Rio
Grande, Postcards from the Border is a fifteen-minute three screen video installation
screened as a loop where images document a border that is mental rather than
physical. Of great topicality is the theme Yuri Ancarani chose for his work,
shot at the border between Texas and Mexico. The story of a land that is a
common space, a dialogue in space about two coexisting worlds.

Francesca
Montinaro – Communitas I Immunitas
Francesca
Montinaro has been inspired by Roman statues of women in the Venice
Archaeological Museum to create relationships between them and her 600+ female
portraits, shown here in a video installation entitled Communitas I Immunitas
curated by Raffaele Gavarro, until November 26.

11.146.312 metri – 2017 - installation
The
installation 11.146.312 metri, on
the other hand, represents the distance a young Somalian woman, Nasra,
travelled to reach Italy and makes
the public walk on a moving walkway, thus ideally feeling closer to her. A
simple action such as walking, sharing a part of a journey, to rebuild together
a distressed community. A very feminine lyricism, a symbolic force of great
impact, for a project on the future of the community.
Francesca
Montinaro – Communitas I Immunitas
Only
the female statues from the Grimani Collections of classical and Hellenistic
and Roman eras are significantly lit up behind video installations on six
screens, on which more than 600 women expose their bodies and their relationship
with their community by exposing open hands on which they have written a
significant message to the world.

The
Chair Portrait – installation
The
same revolving chair from the videos has been dismantled in all its components,
rendering it useless and consequently becoming the metaphorical body of
Communitas, of the diversity of its components, but especially of the loss of
function produced by disaggregation.
