L'arte di rivelare l'arte: Il caso Jef Cornelis (The Art of Revealing Art: The Jef Cornelis case) - the three months screening series curated by Francesco Bernardelli, conceived in collaboration with Argos, Brussels, and devoted to historical exhibitions' documentaries - acts as a prime example for the study of the social reception and cultural understanding of contemporary art at large, far beyond the usual parameters of TV journalism. Extraordinary, not only because of their inherent historical and documentary value, but also for the manifold essayist character, the body of works presented at Castello di Rivoli exemplifies and sums up the rich and tensed relationship between visual art and television, a medium for which Jef Cornelis directed more than two hundred films between 1963 and 1998.

De langste dag/The longest day (1986)
Jef Cornelis (°1941) worked as executor, director and scriptwriter for the VRT, the Dutch-language Belgian public broadcasting corporation, from 1963 until 1998. Over those 35 years Cornelis accomplished an impressive body of work. It comprises over 200 titles and is generally considered as groundbreaking, artistically and cultural-historically.
At the core of his oeuvre lies a tumultuous relationship between visual art and television, the medium for which he directed his films. Cornelis’ oeuvre was made possible by television broadcasting, but the relationship has always been an ambivalent one. Although he made over two hundred films, including films on modern art, architecture and the Flemish landscape, Cornelis’s work is primarily a dissection of television itself, the very medium in which he worked.THE TURIN SYSTEM FOR EXHIBITION, EXHIBITION
On the occasion of EXHIBITION, EXHIBITION, a special project for the Manica Lunga curated by Adam Carr, new collaborative ventures on the theme of the double have been initiated with important cultural institutions in the region. The results of this synergy include an exclusive concert, ANBB Alva Noto & Blixa Bargeld, in collaboration with the Associazione Culturale Situazione Xplosiva, which took place on September 23, 2010, and CITYRAMA – Workshop with Big Art Group, curated by the Fondazione del Teatro Stabile di Torino in conjunction with the Fall Festival PROSPETTIVA2 - Le dinamiche del doppio, (The Dynamics of the Double), with a project by Mario Martone and Fabrizio Arcuri scheduled for November 14, 2010. As part of this innovative interdisciplinary project – which delves into the basic concepts of the exhibition at Castello di Rivoli - the Museo Nazionale del Cinema is organizing and presenting a series entitled L’immagine allo specchio. Duplicità e simmetrie nel cinema (The Image in the Mirror. The Double and Symmetry in Cinema).This film series, open to the public, takes place in Turin, at the Cinema Massimo – Sala Tre, November 12-16, 2010. The program is as follows.

This will allow the ticket holder (for the maximum duration of one year) to have access to the collections or exhibitions with reduced-price admission, according to the guidelines of each museum. “Save your ticket” and the Turin System projects illustrate Castello di Rivoli’s strong desire to strengthen its collaboration with the major museum institutions in the area, creating new energy that is capable of supporting the cultural offerings of our region.
Philippe Parreno
SNOW DANCING - SPEECH BUBBLES
November 4 – 7, 2010
Meet the artist
Friday, November 5, 2010, 11:30 am
Castello di Rivoli
For the opening of ARTISSIMA17 Internazionale d’Arte Contemporanea in Turin, Castello di Rivoli presents – in cooperation with Kaleidoscope Press – an encounter, open to the public, between the artist Philippe Parreno and the co-director of the museum Andrea Bellini.
Parreno, an established artist on the international art scene, focuses his work on the shifts in meaning between reality and fiction, often using the cinema as a raw material, particularly through the re-use of such means of expression as special effects, resulting in his becoming the creator of videos or feature films, often in collaboration with other artists. A case in point, in 2000, was when he acquired – along with Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster and Pierre Huyghe – the manga character Ann Lee, created by a Japanese company. Starting with this synthetic image, the artists created individual or collective projects, sparking more possibilities for the virtual life of the character.
In 1995, Parreno wrote a long story called Snow Dancing for the publishing house GW Press, founded a few years earlier by a colleague, Liam Gillick. The book tells the story of a strange promotional party held in the spaces of Le Consortium, the centre for contemporary art in Dijon. The events described in the book lasted an hour and a half, which is the approximate amount of time that it takes to read the book (thus making it a narrative in "real time").
The publication of the book was followed by an exhibition of the same title at Le Consortium in the same year. The book, which became a cult, has long been out of print and is now impossible to find.
In the context of the event at the Castello di Rivoli, Kaleidoscope Press announces the publication of a second edition of Snow Dancing by Philippe Parreno, enriched with a new graphic design, a new preface by the artist and a cover jacket specially designed for the occasion by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster (who was involved in the 1995 event).
For the book launch, the stately rooms of the Museum are hosting the work Speech Bubbles by Parreno, a large environmental installation made up of countless Mylar balloons in the shape of comic strip speech bubbles, which invade the rooms on the second floor, where the exhibition tutto è connesso is showing.
Special thanks to the Enea Righi Collection.
Philippe Parreno, born in 1964 in Oran in Algeria, lives and works in Paris. One of the leading exponents of the international art scene, he was recently given a traveling retrospective at the Kunsthalle Zürich, Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin and CCS Bard in New York. A solo exhibition of his work will be opening next November 25th at the Serpentine Gallery in London.
Massimo Grimaldi
Photographic Slideshow of the Centro Sanitario Pediatrico Di Emergency A Goderich
Curated by Marcella Beccaria
2009 Fellowship for Young Italian Artists, Promoted by the Supporting Friends of Castello di Rivoli. Opening November 5, 2010
Presentation: Castello di Rivoli - room 7, Friday, November 5, 2010, 10 a.m.
Meeting with the artist, the Supporting Friends and the curator: ARTISSIMA 17 – Meeting Point, Sunday, November 7, 2010, 12.30 a.m.
Castello di Rivoli is holding a preview of work by Massimo Grimaldi resulting from the artist’s project that was awarded the 2009 Fellowship. The work is installed in room 7, on the first floor of the Savoy Residence. Grimaldi’s work stems from the need to re-examine the role of the artist and its social utility in relation to the serious events that define contemporary life. For several years the artist has collaborated with Emergency, an independent and neutral Italian association that offers free, high quality medical-surgical assistance to the civilian victims of wars, anti-personnel mines and poverty. This collaboration has resulted in a series of projects for which Grimaldi uses any monetary rewards he receives, granted for the production of works, to support Emergency’s activities. His prize-winning entry for the Fellowship, Photographic Slideshow of the Centro Sanitario Pediatrico Di Emergency A Goderich, is part of this important series. Grimaldi has donated 15,000 Euro of the 20,000 Euro prize to the Centro Pediatrico di Goderich, in Sierra Leone. The artist has used the remaining portion of the prize to create an on-site facility at the Center, documenting its activities. This documentation, which the artist defines as “an affective reportage,” is intentionally presented through the use of the most recent generation Apple computers that will be part and parcel of the work. Now in its tenth installment, the Fellowship for Young Italian Artists is an important project, developed by the Castello and by the Supporting Friends of the Museum. Conceived to expand and promote the international visibility of Italian art, the Fellowship has been awarded in past years to Grazia Toderi (2001), Alessandra Tesi (2002), Margherita Manzelli (2003), Lara Favaretto (2004), Gianni Caravaggio (2005), Christian Frosi (2007), Alice Guareschi (2008) and Massimo Grimaldi (2009)
The following Supporting Friends of Castello di Rivoli have made possible the 2009 Fellowship:

Gli Irregolari
giornate di celebrazione / giornate di analisi / giornate di festival
The Irregulars
days of celebration / days of analysis / days of festival
curated by Gianluigi Ricuperati
12-13 June, 18-19 September, 11-12 December 2010
Gli Irregolari / The Irregulars are days of analysis and celebration, curated by the writer Gianluigi Ricuperati, through performances, readings, discussions, events and walks. Over the course of these days there will be presentations about important anomalous intellectual figures who, through their interdisciplinary work, have influenced developments in the arts.
The first series is dedicated to two of the most important poets of the 20th century, Emilio Villa and Amelia Rosselli. Their work will be illustrated, analyzed in depth and discussed by the literary figure Aldo Tagliaferri, the poets Antonella Anedda and Rosaria Lo Russo, the critic Andrea Cortellessa, the artist Gianfranco Baruchello, the composer Diego Minciacchi, the singer and writer Godano of the band Marlene Kuntz, the performer Maurizio Barbetti and the actress Sonia Bergamasco, former star of La meglio gioventù.
“Regulars build. Irregulars suggest.”
“I like radical choices.”
As the great Italian author Giuseppe Pontiggia states, “the future will be based on invisible reserves.” We believe that invisible reserves are also those established by trajectories of thought, intellectual sparks and works that have anomalous characteristics, not easily accepted by contemporary culture, courageous in their excessive generosity and generous in their excessive courage. Women and men who have traversed the arts, connecting different disciplines in ways that were previously unimaginable. Poets, authors, artists who have sustained the course of History through their desire, excellence and works, often crouching in the tenacious invisibility of the trenches imposed by the world or by the mind. Gianluigi Ricuperati
Gli Irregolari is an exhibition that will take place on three dates, each of which is devoted to a pair of “irregulars” of culture and art.
The first encounter, the theme of which will be “the centrality of poetry,” will focus on Emilio Villa and Amelia Rosselli.
Emilio Villa (1914-2003), poet and artist, experimenter with new idioms and founder of magazines and cultural initiatives, is considered the precursor to Gruppo 63. He collaborated with artists such as Burri, Duchamp, Matta and Rothko.
Amelia Rosselli (1930-1996), a poet, lived a life of exile. She was involved with ethnomusicology and musical theory and also translated the work of important writers in the English language, including Sylvia Plath and Emily Dickinson. In the early “Fifties she frequented literary and avant-garde art circles in Rome and was the inspiration for a character in one of Federico Fellini’s films. In 1996 she committed suicide as a result of depression.

The d documenta is a two-day conference which has the goal to provide a forum of discussion and reflection on the history of documenta, its various incarnations and its future.
documenta has come to represent a key periodic moment when contemporary art is exhibited and those who are interested in art as well as in its relation to the world meet, assess the situation and share their views. For those involved in organising the next documenta, the journey publicly begins on September 18th, 2009.
The speakers invited to this event are the artistic directors of all the preceding editions of documenta. Each former director has been asked to make a presentation about their documenta by first describing the sense of the present they felt at the time of the project they organised: How did they feel present to their time, what did that mean and how did that inform the strategies they employed, the decisions they took? Second, they have been asked to outline, in retrospect, what they might have done differently - in light of what happened in the world of art and in the world at large subsequent to their documenta
The Castello di Rivoli and documenta 13 are grateful that all the former directors, as representatives of the artists and the curatorial teams who together conceived, imagined, witnessed and dreamed documenta, have accepted the invitation and will reflect upon their ideas and experiences.
When documenta was conceived in the early 1950s, it was a direct response to the“degenerate art” politics of the Third Reich. Therefore, contrary to other periodic international exhibitions which have emerged from the world fair models of the 19th century, it is characterised by a theoretical grounding and a sense of the urgency of art in society. Today no less than 50 years ago.
The choice of Castello di Rivoli Museo d'Arte Contemporanea, as the ideal location
for this conference, is due to the particular circumstance that the museum’s first
director, Rudi Fuchs, was also Artistic Director of documenta 7 in 1982, and that
today, Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Chief Curator since 2001 and interim artistic
director of the Castello di Rivoli in 2009, has been nominated the Artistic Director of
documenta 13, which will be held in 2012 in Kassel. "documenta 13 - says Christov-
Bakargiev - is being developed from an archeological perspective, according to which
every cultural project that moves forward must be grounded on a backwards gaze, in
an ecological relationship to the past. How was the present imagined in the second
half of the 20th century and what was considered urgent at each successive edition of
the exhibition?" At the same time, she is “…personally committed to the illogical, the
playful and the poetic, to the celebration of works of art, as well as to the
participation and singular experience of those who attend an event like documenta”.
This conference attempts to bring the past, present, and future of documenta into one room, in dialogue, and we invite those who are interested to join us.
The speakers are:
Heiner Georgsdorf, Speaker of the Board of Trustees of the Arnold-Bode-
Foundation, and friend of Arnold Bode.
With reference to documenta, 1955, II.documenta, 1959, documenta III, 1964,
