The cultural association for contemporary arts SINCRESIS presents experimental research of Alberto Venturini, a young artist selected in the competition for residences which ended in April last year and expects to host seven artists during the year participated with their projects.
Alberto, who proposed a job for SINCRESIS section Independents at the Art fair in Verona in October last year, giving the public a poster created his drawing inspiration from a text by Antonin Artaud, when it arrived in our room started confronted with the place and with the fabric of daily life, suggesting a comparison with artists who live in our area that have become available to set up a conversation with him, how to meet and exchange ideas on the creative work of each.
Every day, according to a series of appointments via email and have come and gone in the space SINCRESIS study by the artists who have agreed to participate in this comparison for a dialogue lasting several hours.
Alberto has proposed an idea of the exhibition space as a place to receive, for communication and sharing of creative paths, routes of research and production.
At the end of the week in which he stayed in residence presents to the public aspects of its program of conversations with the artists intervened Vittorio Cavallini, Fabio Cresci, Valentina La Polla, Luca Lupi, Federica Gonnelli, Marco Mazzi, Alessandro Niccolai, Gianluca Sgherri, Enrico quirks, Stefano Tondo.
How accurate the artist:
“The speed date is a tool to meet new people sentimental purposes. Is organized in a dedicated area, with a number of entries closed and proportionate. Participants are seated opposite each other around the table and begin to talk to try to hear and be heard in a pre-set time, and then, if there is an interest, exchange contacts and get straight to a subsequent new knowledge in the next table. In this case the attention is focused on the speed date curiosity of knowing each other, about what motivates him in everyday life and in his work, the artist be. No barriers whatsoever, without tables dividers.
I will invite some artists to share with several people, even outside the dimension of contemporary art, their work in word, through a very short oral histories, without the help of images. Each artist will try to answer any questions raised in the users of the speed date.
It ‘a proposal for sharing in a playful “.
