The event is organized in the context of the Convention stipulated between the Museum and the Academy to foster the encounter between internationally renowned contemporary artists and students. \nLiu Ding’s artistic creation and curatorial practice bring attention to multiple viewpoints and modes of description in Chinese art history\, exploring a trajectory of discursive thoughts that connect the contemporary and the historical. Continuously tracing the intellectual roots of contemporary Chinese art\, Liu Ding weaves multiple threads in expanding the narrative of Chinese art subjectivity. His art benefits from his extensive researches in history and his interest in literature. Liu Ding has recognized the predicament that China’s art history is often legitimated only through its comparison with Western art history\, and realized that the undiscerned discursive vocabulary formed within such a process of comparison restricts visions of researchers and creators. In his practice\, he looks at the intellectual roots of contemporary Chinese art and studies the lasting legacy of Socialist Realism in China’s contemporary society. His artistic and curatorial work revisits the process of intellectual liberation since the end of the Cultural Revolution\, rehearses a Chinese expression within a globalized context since the 1990s\, and describes the ideological roots and logic of Chinese contemporary art and culture. \n  \nFree admission \nThis lecture is translated into Italian \n  \nBiography \nHe has participated in international biennials such as: Busan Biennale (2018)\, Yinchuan Biennale (2018)\, Istanbul Biennial (2015); Asia Pacific Triennial\, Brisbane (2015); Shanghai Biennale (2014); Prospect 3 New Orleans (2014); Taipei Biennial\, (2012); Chinese Pavilion\, 53rd Venice Biennial (2009); Media City Seoul (2008); and Guangzhou Triennial (2005). His work has been shown at numerous major art institutions including Tate Modern\, London (2012/2013); Turner Contemporary\, Kent\, Arnolfini\, Bristol (2008); Kunsthalle Wien\, Vienna (2007); Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art\, Oslo (2007); São Paulo Muse­um of Art\, São Paulo (2008); ZKM\, Karlsruhe (2011); Kunstmuseum Bern\, Bern (2016); PasquArt\,Biel (2008); Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo\, Turin (2006); Seoul Museum of Art\, Seoul (2006); Luggage Store Gallery\, San Francisco (2006); Frye Art Museum\, Seattle (2012/2016); 4A\, Sydney (2017); Iberia Center for Contemporary Art\, Beijing (2008); Museum of Contemporary Art Shanghai\, Shanghai (2006); Times Museum\, Guangzhou (2011/2012); Taipei Fine Arts Museum\, Taipei (2012); Para Site\, Hong Kong (2016); Red Brick Museum\, Beijing (2016); Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art\, Hiroshima (2015); Guandu Museum of Art\, Taipei (2016); and MOMA PS1\, New York (2015).

Two masterpieces from the collection of Francesco Federico Cerruti curated by Fabio Belloni\, a lecture by Donna De Salvo\, Deputy Director for International Initiatives and Senior curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York\, one of the greatest scholars and experts in the work of Andy Warhol. Donna De Salvo\, senior curator of the Whitney Museum of American Art’s current retrospective Andy Warhol — From A to B and Back Again\, will discuss Warhol’s career and legacy\, and his enduring relevance in the 21st century. Taking the exhibition as an entry point\, this lecture will delve into lesser-known aspects of the artist’s career\, including his groundbreaking experiments in film\, his engagement with the history of art as well as with new technologies\, and his sustained interest in abstraction. Andy Warhol — From A to B and Back Again is the largest monographic exhibition to date at the Whitney’s new location\, with more than 350 works of art\, many assembled together for the first time. It is currently on view at the Whitney until March 31\, 2019\, before traveling to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Art Institute of Chicago. Donna De Salvo will be in conversation with Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev to discuss the particular bond that brings together Andy Warhol and the poetics and the history of the protagonist of metaphysical painting\, Giorgio de Chirico. \n  \nBiographies\nDonna De Salvo is the Deputy Director for International Initiatives and Senior Curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art\, New York. She joined the museum in 2004 and was appointed the museum’s first Chief Curator in 2006\, a post she held until 2015. In her previous role\, De Salvo oversaw the museum’s artistic program\, was instrumental in the design of the Whitney’s new building\, and led the curatorial team for the museum’s inaugural presentation\, America Is Hard to See (2015). Currently\, she is leading the museum’s efforts to define and communicate an expanded notion of art in the United States\, both domestically and internationally. In addition\, she organizes exhibitions and collection displays\, co-directs the Painting and Sculpture Acquisition Committee\, and oversees the Andy Warhol films catalog raisonné project. Exhibitions she has curated or co-curated at the Whitney include: Andy Warhol—From A to B and Back Again (2018—ongoing)\, Hélio Oiticica: To Organize Delirium(2017)\, Open Plan: Michael Heizer (2016)\, Open Plan: Steve McQueen (2016)\, Sinister Pop (2012—2013)\, Roni Horn aka Roni Horn (2009-2010)\, and Lawrence Weiner: AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE (2007-2008). A noted expert on art of the 1960s\, and Andy Warhol in particular\, De Salvo was Adjunct Curator for the Andy Warhol Museum and was curator of Andy Warhol: Disaster Paintings\, 1963 (Dia Art Foundation\, 1986); Andy Warhol: Hand-Painted Images\, 1960-62 (Dia Art Foundation\, 1987); Hand Painted Pop: American Art in Transition 1955-1962 (LAMoCA\, 1992)\, “Success is a Job in New York”: The early art and business of Andy Warhol\, (Grey Art Gallery\, 1989); and a retrospective of the artist’s work held at Tate Modern (2002). From 1981 to 1986\, De Salvo was a curator at the Dia Art Foundation\, where she worked closely with several artists\, including John Chamberlain\, Walter De Maria\, Donald Judd\, Cy Twombly\, and Andy Warhol. She has served as senior curator at Tate Modern; Curator-at-Large\, Wexner Center for the Arts; and Robert Lehman Curator\, The Parrish Art Museum. She is a recipient of the Alfred H. Barr Jr. Award from the College Art Association. \nAndy Warhol was born in Pittsburg in 1928 to Czechoslovakian immigrant parents. At seventeen he enrolled in the drawing and decorative arts courses at the Carnegie Institute of Technology. In 1949 he moved to New York\, where he began to work as an illustrator for fashion magazines and advertising agencies. He switched to painting in 1960. A couple of years later he began to work with silkscreen\, a technique that made execution impersonal and also gave him the possibility of reproducing a potentially infinite number of prints while maintaining the original quality. “The reason I’m painting this way\,” he said in 1967\, “is that I want to be a machine\, and I feel that whatever I do and do machine-like\, is what I want to do. I think everybody should be a machine.” In 1963 Warhol moved his studio to a large loft on 47th Street\, where\, with the help of a team of assistants\, he expanded his creative activity. The Factory – which was the name given to his workshop – produced silkscreen prints\, but also photographic and cinematic works. The iconography was certainly wide-ranging: themes of violent death (victims of an airplane crash\, the electric chair); Hollywood celebrities (Marilyn Monroe\, Elvis Presley\, Liz Taylor) and typical American food and beverage products (Coca-Cola bottles\, Campell’s soup cans). In his last years\, the artist also devoted himself to television and publishing projects. At the same time\, he began to revisit the great masterpieces of the past (from Leonardo to de Chirico) and also collaborated with new-generation artists. He died in 1987\, from complications following surgery.

Chapter 1. Both a house and a ‘piggy bank’\, this sculpture is inspired by Picasso’s Oiseau sur une branche (1913) from the Cerruti Collection\, as well as is referred to instruments used every day to measure and monitor\, as if held by a child in his piggy bank. The sculpture’s shape resembles the Cubist Picasso\, and the Egyptian pyramids. On the one hand\, Maison absolue is a reflection on the ‘things of the Self’ – the objects making up our personal ‘sacred space’ – and on the concept of the ‘talisman’ or ‘contractual gift’\, miraculous and restorative. The house – Villa Cerruti – conceived of as a museum\, hence becomes an extension of the depth of the spirit towards the totality of the universe: an ‘absolute house’ and a gift-talisman. \nCamille Henrot explores the objects and systems of consciousness that humanity surrounds itself with by combining film\, drawing and sculpture with her thorough research of different areas and disciplines\, from anthropology to cinema\, mythology to ordinary daily life.

How can we live better on Earth? Compost is the answer to the question because it concerns reciprocity. \nCompost is an alchemical phase in the life cycle. It is where death goes to prepare a new life. “We will use microscopes to witnessing the intricate activities and interdependent organisms that conduct this process. Aided by specialists in philosophy\, biology\, and sustainable farming – narrates the artist – we will spend time contemplating together\, writing\, drawing and dancing to perform our understandings of the miracle of death and life in compost.” \nFrom July 15 to July 18\, Castello di Rivoli will be the terrain and the gymnasium for the workshop Living matters. A workshop to study compost through the body and dance forms by American artist\, Claire Pentecost. The workshop will involve a group of students and explore the concept of compost through the body and dance forms. It will end on July 18 with the performance – open to the public – Living Matters\, followed by a conversation between the artist and Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev. \nLiving Matters is the first event of COMP(H)OST. This project investigates the concepts of hosting\, coexistence\, cooperation and cohabitation\, transition and fertility through a transdisciplinary approach\, which includes artworks\, performances and public programs held in Castello di Rivoli and various venues throughout Torino. \nCOMP(H)OST is curated by a.titolo\, NERO and Marianna Vecellio – Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea in collaboration with the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art\, Rotterdam\, and was conceived by Marianna Vecellio and Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy. \nThe project is supported by Compagnia di San Paolo within the program “ORA!

According to the principle of reciprocity\, which underlies the process of creating compost\, the experts\, together with some of the participants\, will facilitate the understanding and communication among all. \n  \nDownload the program: Workshop Comphost \n  \nBiography:\nBorn in Baltimore in 1956\, Claire Pentecost is a visual artist\, writer and professor of Photography at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. The artist explores the strategies of power that build knowledge using different media like photography\, painting\, writing\, performing art\, while she carries out her activity of teacher and activist. For many years her work investigated the contested line between the “natural” and the “artificial” in specific contexts\, such as the Institutions in charge of learning processes and production of knowledge. This research brought the artist to study the industrial food system with a particular interest in biotechnology in the agriculture field. Her works were presented in collective exhibitions such as Transmediale 05\, Berlin 2005; Mapping the Self\, Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago 2007; Heartland\, Smart Museum of Art\, Chicago 2009; dOCUMENTA(13)\, Kassel 2012; 13th Istanbul Biennial\, Istanbul 2013; Rights of Nature: Art and Ecology in the Americas\, Nottingham Contemporary\, Nottingham2015;Terra Anima\, Spencer Museum of Art\, University of Kansas\, Lawrence 2017. \n  \nFor further information\, please contact:\nEducation Department: \n011.9565213 \neduca@castellodirivoli.org \na.titolo: 011 8122634 \ncomphost.project@gmail.com URL:https://www.castellodirivoli.org/en/evento/living-matters-by-claire-pentecost/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.castellodirivoli.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/mycellium_through_microscope_9118-Low-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20190921T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20190922T200000 DTSTAMP:20260610T062247 CREATED:20190902T081830Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251125T132515Z UID:105000-1569067200-1569182400@www.castellodirivoli.org SUMMARY:For an Imaginist Renewal of the World. The Alba Congress: 1956-2019 DESCRIPTION:“Our Congress is like a huge and unknown chemical reaction”. \nPinot Gallizio\, 1956 \n   \nFor an Imaginist Renewal of the World. The Alba Congress: 1956-2019 \nFrom September 21 to 22\, 2019 \nAlba (CN) \nDrafted by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev and Caterina Molteni \n  \nCastello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea and Fondazione CRC are organizing from 21 to 22 September 2019\, For an Imaginist Renewal of the World. The Alba Congress: 1956-2019\, a poetic reenactment of the First World Congress of Free Artists that took place from 2 to 8 September 1956 in Alba (Pinot Gallizio’s and Elena Verrone’s hometown)\, which anticipated by a year the foundation of the International Situationist in Cosio di Arroscia\, hometown of the artist Piero Simondo. \nWith the theme “The Free Arts and Industrial Activities”\, the congress gathered artists and intellectuals from eight different countries\, with the participation of representatives of the International Letterism\, of the Nuclear Art Movement and the dissolved CoBrA group\, under the coordination of the Experimental Laboratory of the International Movement for an “Imaginist Bauhaus” (MIBI)\, founded by Asger Jorn\, Pinot Gallizio and Piero Simondo in September 1955. \nThe three artists proposed a project of relationship between art and technique in contrast with the functionalist approach of the time. “Based on a subjective artistic research in favor of a democratic and collaborative vision of an art accessible to all”\, states the director of Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev\, “their laboratories were conceived as a space of collective and experimental work\, in which artistic sensitivity met the scientific and alchemic knowledge of materials (dust\, resins\, pigments). The interests extended to popular cultures and urban planning with the aim of realizing the idea of a “free” artist\, capable of operating and developing his own research transversely in different fields of knowledge.” \nIn the years preceding the Congress\, Asger Jorn had recently completed his experience with the CoBrA group (1948-1951) and traveled around Europe in search of a new collective vitality in the artistic production.  Meanwhile\, Pinot Gallizio\, a central figure in the Alba socio-cultural life as city councilor\, former partisan\, passionate researcher of popular cultures\, nomadism\, botany\, chemistry and archeology\, had come into contact with the young artist and philosophy student Piero Simondo\, who moved to Alba in 1952\, where he attended his girlfriend and philosophy student Elena Verrone. Gallizio and Simondo met soon after at a conference in Alba by Simondo and Michele Lo Sacco on the theme of German Expressionism. \nIn Albisola in 1955\, Gallizio and Simondo met Asger Jorn for the first time. The Danish artist had organised in those years the International Ceramics Meetinginvolving part of the Nuclear’s\, Lucio Fontana\, Karel Appel and Corneille\, Emilio Scanavino and Tullio Mazzotti d’Albisola. This exhibition introduces the artists into the debate against functionalism thanks to a new exhibition organised on the occasion of the International Congress of Industrial Designof the X Triennale di Milano. In the dispute over the relationship between art and technique\, in particular addressed to Max Bill’s functionalist aesthetics\, the artists play a central role in ceramics. The use of this material\, thanks to the element of unpredictability present in the processes of cooking and taking color\, allowed to project standardized and functional design objects from a perspective based on the dynamic experience of matter. \nThe First Congress of Free Artists started from these assumptions and concluded with the adoption of a common theoretical platform centered on the idea\, dear to the Lettrists\, of a ‘unitary urbanism’: the construction of an environment that\, thanks to the synthesis of art and technique\, was the place of a future lifestyle. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nFor an Imaginist Renewal of the World. The Alba Congress: 1956-2019 will be a widespread event and will take place in the council hall of the Municipality of Alba\, in the Centro Studi Beppe Fenoglio\, in the “Beppe Fenoglio” Hall and the Alba Wine School “Umberto I”\, spreading into the streets and alleys of the city. The program includes a series of ‘reports’ that will retrace the historical background\, the development and the theoretical and artistic implications of the Congress in the present time\, thanks to the contribution of art historians Maria Teresa Roberto and Giorgina Bertolino (Archivio Gallizio\, Turin)\, of the art historian Francesca Comisso from the curatorial collective a.titolo\, of art critic and curator Achille Bonito Oliva\, of Lori Waxman\, Senior lecturer at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago\, art historian and journalist\, of Tom McDonough\, Associate Professor of Art History Department at Binghamton University. \nThe 1956 Congress will also be reactivated by a series of ‘communications’ entrusted to artists and curators who will reinterpret the poetic and artistic heritage of its participants\, literally taking on their roles. As short readings\, projections of archive materials (es. Cinema Lettrista) and poetic actions\, these communications involve: Luca Avanzini\, Bernard Blistène\, Ludovica Carbotta\, Alex Cecchetti\, Cooking Sections\, Irene Dionisio\, Liam Gillick\, Renato Leotta\, Michael Rakowitz\, Gianluigi Ricuperati\, Amelia Simondo\, Hans Ulrich Obrist and Alice Visentin. \nA third part of the Congress has been conceived by art historian Lori Waxman as a public performance program on the art of walking. This will consist of the re-performance of historical pieces of walking art\, all of which will relate to the Situationist spirit either directly or indirectly. \nThe program foresees the participation of the public that can\, following the instructions of a booklet\, recreate the different works along the streets of Alba in the movements between the different venues hosting the Congress.

DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, September 24\, 2019\, 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. \nConference Hall\, Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art \n  \nCastello di Rivoli is pleased to announce the forthcoming talk Provenance: Can You Bank on It? presented at Castello di Rivoli Conference Hall by Dr. Lynn Rother\, Senior Provenance Specialist at The Museum of Modern Art\, New York followed by a Q&A. The evening program is part of the Workshop for Provenance Research\, a two-week study session including lectures\, hands-on exercises and discussion rounds with international experts in Provenance Research and Art Law jointly run by CRRI\, Centre for Research Castello di Rivoli\, and the Education Department\, led by Dr. Lynn Rother. \n  \nThe biggest art deal of the Nazi era occurred in August 1935 when the Prussian Finance Minister paid the enormous amount of 7.5 million German marks to the Dresdner Bank to acquire 4\,401 works of art for the Berlin museums. This momentous historical event is hardly known; Lynn Rother is one of the few scholars to research this extraordinary transaction and analyze its consequences in her book. “Kunst durch Kredit” (Art as Collateral) was published in 2017 to great critical acclaim in Germany and won the translation prize “Geisteswissenschaften International.” Using the sale of the Flemish old master paintings from the former collection of the Prince of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen as a case study\, Provenance: Can You Bank on It? will examine the methodology\, sources\, and challenges of Nazi-era provenance research as it relates to art as collateral and the hidden aspects of the art market. \n  \nThe talk is followed by a Q&A featuring Dr. Lynn Rother\, Dr. Mara Wantuch-Thole\, a Berlin-based attorney specialized in advising private clients as well as German and international public institutions in the art sector and Paul Cossu\, a member of New York’s Pryor Cashman’s Art Law Group\, where he handles a range of litigation and transactional matters on behalf of auction houses\, artists\, museums\, and collectors \n  \nThe talk and Q&A are in English. \n  \nThe evening program is organized in collaboration with Family office Tosetti Value\, a benchmark in the enhancement and maintenance of family wealth. \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \nLynn Rother joined The Museum of Modern Art as Senior Provenance Specialist in 2015. She oversees provenance research\, procedures\, documentation and funding in conjunction with all curatorial departments regarding works in the Collection\, loans\, acquisitions\, and deaccessions. Before coming to MoMA\, she held various research positions at the Berlin State Museums working on all facets of World War II-era provenance as well as on digital initiatives co-financed by the European Commission. A former Fellow of The Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles and of the German Historical Institute in Moscow\, she has a Master’s degree in art history\, economics and law from the University of Leipzig and a Ph.D. in art history from the Technical University of Berlin. Beyond her World War II provenance research\, her academic interests are the history of 20th-century collecting\, art market practices\, and the digital humanities. \n  \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \nMara Wantuch-Thole is an attorney admitted to the Bar in Germany. She is specialized in advising private clients as well as German and international public institutions in the art sector. Prior to founding her law firm\, Mara worked in several international corporate law firms\, for public cultural institutions\, as an advisor for the Spoliation Advisory Panel in the United Kingdom\, and for a Berlin-based law firm specialised in art and foundation law. \n \n  \n  \n  \nPaul Cossu is a member of Pryor Cashman’s Art Law Group\, where he handles a range of litigation and transactional matters on behalf of auction houses\, galleries\, artists\, museums\, collectors and other members of the arts community. Paul has litigated several high-profile stolen art and art forgery cases\, including cases concerning artwork alleged to have been looted by the Nazis. On the transactional side\, Paul handles a variety of purchase\, sale\, co-ownership\, consignment\, commission\, and loan agreements for a broad array of gallery\, advisory\, and art dealer clients.

As she herself explains: “In many texts we nd the idea that we humans are ‘instinctively territorial’. Could this instinct\, inherited from our animal ancestors\, explain our idea of private property\, territory\, frontier and lastly of nation? This would mean forgetting that these concepts are recent and historically positioned. Making animals into small bourgeois owners\, eager for exclusivity\, is not only a serious anachronism from the point of view of the history of evolution\, but it also means neglecting the inventiveness and the great diversity in the ways of living\, of sharing spaces and of being alone that is found among territorial beings”. \n\n\n\nIn particular the conference will look at the many researches conducted by ornithologists regarding birds. Why birds? Because they are the first to have aroused the curiosity of observers\, both amateurs and scientists\, on the question of territories. Then\, during these researches\, increasingly complex ways of organization were discovered. The territories become places of artistic performance\, of inventive forms of socialization; issues of composition and partition emerge. And the work of researchers\, since then\, has no longer been to seek a theory or an explanation\, but to honor these ways of organizing life together. \nRETURN TO EARTH\, WITH THE BIRDS by Vinciane Despret takes place on the occasion of GDC15 QUINDICESIMA GIORNATA DEL CONTEMPORANEO promoted by AMACI Associazione dei Musei d’Arte Contemporanea Italiani. The conference is in French with simultaneous translation in Italian\, with free admission subject to availability. \nBIOGRAPHY\nVinciane Despret (Anderlecht\, 1959) is a Belgian philosopher and psychologist\, associate professor at the University of Liège\, where she lives and works. Her entire career has focused on the relationship between human psychology and ethology. She worked for approximately twenty years mainly on the understanding of animals\, a field of research in which she has published a number of essays and various books\, including some that have been translated into Italian: What Would Animals Say If We Asked the Right Questions? (2016)\, Hans\, le cheval qui savait compter [Hans\, the Horse That Could Count] (2004)\, Quand le loup habitera avec l’agneau [When the Wolf Shall Dwell with the Lamb] (2002). In 2008 she also curated the exhibition Bêtes et hommes at the Grande Halle de La Villette in Paris. She has won important prizes\, including the “Humanités scienti ques” award from SciencesPo and the “Wernaers International Fund for Research and Dissemination of Knowledge” award. \nCOMP(H)OST is curated by a.titolo\, NERO and the Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea\, in collaboration with the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art in Rotterdam\, and is supported by Compagnia di San Paolo as part of the call “ORA!

Conversation with Metahaven DESCRIPTION:LIVING THE SPRAWL\nConversation with Metahaven \nIntroduction by: Leonardo Dellanoce \n  \n  \nTeatro del Castello\, 6pm \n  \nLeading interpreters of the languages arisen with the use of new technologies\, protagonists of a research able to range from the world of design to theoretical thinking\, Metahaven will discuss for the first time in Italy their latest works in a live debate with curator Leonardo Dellanoce. \nFollowing the LIVING MATTERS project by American artist Claire Pentecost and the conference RETURN TO EARTH\, WITH THE BIRDS of Vinciane Despret\, LIVING THE SPRAWL is the third appointment of COMP(H)OST\, a project that deals with the trans-disciplinary themes of hospitality\, exchange and coexistence\, cooperation and cohabitation\, transformation and fertility\, via artistic productions\, seminars\, workshops\, conferences\, panel discussions\, conversations\, and live performances at the Castello di Rivoli and in different locations throughout the city of Turin. \nCreated as a “speculative design” collective\, Metahaven have over time focused on how our spaces are defined by the flow of information and propaganda that\, having originated in the digital world\, has ended up shaping the concrete reality of our daily experience. Key to Metahaven’s thought is the concept of sprawl: an ecosystem in which different versions of what we call “reality” coexist\, and in which so many parallel narratives proliferate that our notion of truth is redefined. So what value does the concept of identity acquire in an environment saturated with mutually contradicting stimuli\, starting from the overlap between the old rhetoric of sovereign states and the global scale on which today’s computational apparatus acts? \nStarting from their work in the field of documentaries and moving image\, the two founders of Metahaven Vinca Kruk and Daniel van der Velden will talk with curator Leonardo Dellanoce (Digital Earth) about their most recent works\, touching on themes ranging between art and cinema\, design and poetry\, and the representation of abstractions\, in an attempt to understand how\, through an imaginary defined by them as “soft sci-fi”\, it is possible to decipher an environment in which nature and culture coincide\, and in which it seems to have become impossible to distinguish between facts and fiction\, between imaginary pasts and artfully constructed futures. \nLIVING THE SPRAWL by Metahaven with Leonardo Dellanoce will take place in conjunction with the “Notte delle arti contemporanee”\, with the special late opening of the Castello di Rivoli until 10.00 pm. \nThe conference is in English with consecutive interpretation: free admission subject to availability. \nBIOGRAPHIES\nThe work of Metahaven consists of filmmaking\, writing\, and design\, and is united conceptually by interests in poetry\, storytelling\, propaganda\, and digital superstructures. Films by Metahaven include The Sprawl (Propaganda about Propaganda) (2015)\, Information Skies (2016)\, Hometown (2018) and Eurasia (Questions on Happiness)(2018). Recent solo exhibitions include Version History at the ICA London (2018)\, and Earth at Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (2018). Recent group exhibitions include Ghost:2651 in Bangkok (2018)\, the Sharjah Biennial (2017)\, and the Gwangju Biennale (2016). Recent publications by Metahaven include PSYOP (2018)\, and Digital Tarkovsky (2018). \nLeonardo Dellanoce is an Italian curator who lives in Amsterdam. In his research he explores technological realities using art and design as navigation tools. He has worked with artists\, designers and theorists on various collaborative projects. Among these: Vertical Atlas: a Techno-political Cartography\, Het Nieuwe Instituut\, Rotterdam (2018) and Digital Earth (2019). He is the editor of the magazine “Volume”\, for which he developed the research project Trust in the Blockchain Society.

If Nature Is Unjust\, Change Nature DESCRIPTION:COMP(H)OST #4\nWednesday\, November 20\, 7 pm \nCircolo del Design \nVia San Francesco da Paola 17 \n  \n\n\nXenofeminism is the line of thought that in recent years has most investigated the relationship between gender policies and accelerating technologies\, with the objective of drawing on and surpassing the legacy of cyber theory developed in the 1980s by Donna Haraway. Originally formulated in the Xenofeminist Manifesto by the transnational collective Laboria Cuboniks\, Xenofeminism has quickly established itself as one of the main turning points in the debate that in recent years has seen the world of politics and the arts confront: the meeting with Diann Bauer\, visual artist and co-founder of Laboria Cuboniks\, will be an opportunity to discuss not only the influence and developments of the original manifesto\, but also the way in which its themes continue to reverberate in arts and in the creative languages of the contemporary world. \nIn particular\, Diann Bauer will speak about her work in relation to Xenofeminism proposing that the understanding of “alienation” provided by that project could open ways for thinking about how we\, as a species\, approach the existential threats of climate change. It is an idea that she has developed in collaboration with another working group of artists and architects called A.S.T. (the Alliance of the Southern Triangle). \nIF NATURE IS UNJUST\, CHANGE NATURE\, is the fourth appointment of COMP(H) OST\, a project that deals with the trans-disciplinary themes of hospitality\, exchange and coexistence\, cooperation and cohabitation\, transformation and fertility\, via artistic productions\, seminars\, workshops\, conferences\, panel discussions\, conversations\, and live performances at the Castello di Rivoli and in different locations throughout the city of Turin \n\n\n\nOn this occasion\, COMP(H)OST will be a guest of Turin’s Circolo del Design\, a new open\, inclusive and participatory space\, which sets out to explore the contemporary\, the experimentation and the actors that represent the avant- garde in the various fields of design. The meeting with Diann Bauer will take place as part of the Ciclo dei Mercoledì (Wednesday Cycle)\, which highlights contemporary themes thanks to the contribution of specialists – in disciplines different from design\, who open the debate starting from the core of their own research. These Wednesday meetings are organized with the scientific curatorship of c.lab\, an inter-university laboratory run by Politecnico di Torino and Università degli Studi di Torino. \nBIOGRAPHY\nDiann Bauer is an artist and writer based in London. She is part of the working group LaboriaCuboniks who in 2015 wrote Xenofeminism: A Politics of Alienationandthe collaborative A.S.T. based in Miami\, whose focus is Urbanism and climate change. Bauer has screened and exhibited internationally at Tate Britain and The Showroom\, London\, The Sharjah Biennale 13\, UAE\, Deste Foundation\, Athens\, The New Museum\, New York. She has taught and lectured widely at universities and cultural institutions including: Cornell University\, Yale University and Cooper Union (US)\, HKW (Germany)\, DAI (Netherlands)\, AshkalAlwan (Lebanon)\, Ocean Space\, Venice\, Goldsmiths\, The Baltic\, The Tate and the ICA (UK). \nCOMP(H)OST is produced by a.titolo\, NERO and the Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea\, in collaboration with the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art in Rotterdam\, and is supported by Compagnia di San Paolo as part of the call “ORA!

The work\, realized by IREN\, is co-produced by the City of Turin and Castello di Rivoli in collaboration with Fondazione per la Cultura Torino and Fondazione Contrada Onlus\, with the main sponsorship of FPT Industrial. This work was made possible also with the generous support of Hauser & Wirth. \nRoberto Cuoghi’s work M I R A C O L A is an unprecedented and synaesthetic experience in one of Turin’s main squares\, Piazza San Carlo\, where public and private lights will periodically fade\, creating a luminous choreography that immerses passers-by in moments of absolute darkness\, to then illuminate the square. The passage from light to darkness generates tension and expectation. \nM I R A C O L A(from mirari – admire)\, suggests a visual phenomenon out of the ordinary\, attributed to supernatural causes. The experience of darkness that appears as a result of the synchronization of the lights of the square appears as the miraculous experience of disappearance\, of not appearing. \nRoberto Cuoghi states\, “I have symphonized the lights of the ‘living room’ of Turin\, to force them to consider the cognitive constraints that separate light from darkness; for the characteristics that I wanted it to have and that it has\, M I R A C O L A is an anti-rhetorical work\, not vandalizable\, replicable and non-invasive.” \nThe work is a re-thinking of darkness not only as an absence of perception but also as a device generating individual and collective experience\, a bit like living the square at night as it was lived in the eighteenth century\, before artificial lighting. This is the light installation by Cuoghi with which the City of Turin pays tribute to the theories on the relationship between light and shadow by Leonardo da Vinci\, precisely in the year of the celebrations for the 500th anniversary of his death. Leonardo\, in his Treatise on Painting (circa 1540) writes: “Shadow is the privation of light\, and only opposition of dense bodies opposed to light rays; shadow is of the nature of darkness\, light is by nature light\, one ascends and the other demonstrates; I am always in company with bodies; and the shadow is of greater power than the light\, which prevents it from prohibiting and entirely deprives the bodies of light\, and light can never hunt throughout the shadow of bodies\, that is\, dense bodies.” According to Christov-Bakargiev\, “This reflection of Leonardo could be read in relation to the principle of obscuration. There is light\, and it is right that there is. Darkness is always an exceptional event due exclusively to the absence of light\, be it natural or artificial. The dark instead no! The darkness is always and only natural! Even if\, in the present time\, to produce darkness we have to turn off artificial light\, the same that illuminates our city spaces prolonging life at night. In the final analysis\, being in the dark would be the most natural thing in the world and instead to us contemporaries it appears as a completely artificial experience. Today I think that Leonardo would not have added more light and other energy consumption to the already hyper-illuminated city. He would have taken it away. And he would have dreamed.” \nOnce again in Cuoghi’s work\, who represented Italy at the Venice Biennale in 2017\, experimenting\, doing\, learning\, inventing are fundamental and everything comes together to create and recreate situations in which the centrality of the viewer and his ability to interaction with the artwork is fundamental. \nThe artist thanks Jacopo Galavotti\, Italianist and teacher of metrics and stylistics. \nThanks to Marcella Beccaria\, Chief Curator and Curator of the Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Collections. \nThe Castello di Rivoli and the City of Turin thank the stores\, offices\, entreprises and the inhabitants of Piazza San Carlo for their cooperation\, including Algozzini Gioielli\, Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena S.p.A.\, Benetton\, Biraghi\, Brooksfield Torino 1971\, Bruschi-Pavin Boutiques\, Caffè Mokita\, Caffè San Carlo\, Caffè Torino\, Crédit Agricole\, Deutsche Bank\, Garaffo Gioielleria\, Gelati Cecchi 1936\, Gioielleria Monticone\, Giorgio Cavalitto\, Goethe-Institut Torino\, Hermès\, Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A.\, Francesca Lavazza\, Alessandro Marcato\, Mediolanum\, Ordine degli Architetti di Torino and Fondazione per l’Architettura/Torino\, Ordine degli Ingegneri della Provincia di Torino\, Posh Torino\, Gianluigi Ricuperati\, Sinatra Profumerie\, Giorgina Siviero\, Stone Island\, Stratta\, Y Piazza San Carlo\, as well as all those who wish to remain anonymous. \nThe work has been realized with the generous support of Hauser & Wirth  \n \n\n\nMain Sponsor\n\n\n\nIn collaboration with\n\n\n  \nBiographical notes\nRoberto Cuoghi (b. Modena\, Italy\, 1973) lives and works in Milan. The artist creates works that act as devices or psycho-sensorial machines capable of de-locating (even only from the point of view of suggestion)\, in other spaces and other times\, the visitor\, the ultimate recipient of the created situation. A new\, poetic and alienating approach\, which uses the eyes and the conceptual and emotional apparatus of the other to expand the potential of the work to infinity. Cuoghi experiments with sculpture\, installation\, sound\, painting\, drawing\, photography\, performance and conceptual actions. Slight physical alterations\, complete metamorphoses\, temporary disappearances\, journeys in the immediate future or in the more remote past are some of the elements that characterize his everyday life. Comparing his own obsessions\, the artist reinvents himself and his own practice\, making metamorphosis his modus operandi. Cuoghi has participated in three editions of the Venice Biennale: Il mondo magico\, Italian Pavilion\, 57. Esposizione Internazionale d’Arte\, Biennale di Venezia\, Venice\, 2017; Il Palazzo Enciclopedico\, 55. Esposizione Internazionale d’Arte\, Biennale di Venezia\, Venice\, 2013; Fare Mondi/Making Worlds\, 53. Esposizione Internazionale d’Arte\, Biennale di Venezia\, Venice\, 2009.

METAMORPHOSIS. WE ARE ALL THE SAME LIFE DESCRIPTION:COMP(H)OST #5\nSaturday February 15\, 2020 \nCastello di Rivoli di Museo d’Arte Contemporanea  \nTheater\, 5 pm   \n  \nCOMP(H)OST events will resume at the Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea on Saturday 15 February with the conference Metamorphosis. We are all the same lifeby philosopher Emanuele Coccia. \nAn important international figure of the contemporary philosophical discussion\, Emanuele Coccia attracted the attention of the general public with Life of Plants: A Metaphysics of mixture\, a book published in France in 2016 and two years later in Italy\, in which the author proposes a new reading of the genesis of life starting from plants. Agents of union between earth and sky\, plants are identified in Coccia’s reflection as the paradigmatic expression of the interrelation between all forms of life and matter\, through exchange and transformation methods that overcome oppositional binary logic in favor of unity. \nIn this perspective\, metamorphosis exemplifies the fluid condition of being. “We all experienced it when we were children – Coccia says – a caterpillar becomes a butterfly: the same life is incarnated in two bodies that have nothing in common. One is a huge digestive tube on legs that climbs along the ground\, the other is a machine that flutters to mate: they have neither the same anatomical identity\, nor the same clothes\, nor share a specific world\, yet they are the same self\, and they are intimately related to each other\, like we all are to our child self. This relationship is not limited to the caterpillar and the butterfly\, but extends to all living beings. Regardless of the species and the kingdom to which they belong\, all living bodies\, present\, past and future\, are the same life that is transmitted from body to body\, from species to species\, from era to era. Metamorphosis is the relationship that unites all living beings with the planet\, of which they are the expression: life is only the butterfly of this huge caterpillar that is our Earth”. \n  \nBiography\nEmanuele Coccia is an Italian philosopher who lives in Paris\, where he teaches at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS)\, one of the most important schools of contemporary human sciences. Starting from studies on Averroes and Averroism\, his research turned to the ontological status of images and their regulatory power\, and to the investigation about the nature of living beings. Regarding these issues\, he has published numerous books\, translated into various languages\, including Sensible Life(Il Mulino\, 2011)\, which analyzes sensitivity as a complementary\, rather that opposed\, ability to rational thinking\, The good in things. Advertising as a moral discourse(Il Mulino\, 2014)\, and the most recent and well-known Life of Plants: A Metaphysics of mixture(Il Mulino\, 2018)\, which has been translated into ten languages. He has collaborated on editorial projects with the philosopher Giorgio Agamben and held lectures and courses in the universities of Freiburg\, Tokyo\, Buenos Aires\, Düsseldorf\, Amsterdam\, at Columbia University and Princeton. \nMETAMORPHOSIS. WE ARE ALL THE SAME LIFE is the fifth appointment COMP(H)OST\,and will be held at Teatro del Castello at 5 pm with free admission. The Rivoli Express shuttle round-trip service is available from the centre of Turin with departures from Piazza Castello and Porta Susa station (Piazza XVIII Dicembre). \nCOMP(H)OST is produced by a.titolo\, NERO and the Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea\, in collaboration with the Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art in Rotterdam\, and is supported by Compagnia di San Paolo as part of the call “ORA! Produzioni di Cultura Contemporanea”\, with the contribution of Regione Piemonte\, the hospitality of Duparc Contemporary Suites and the collaboration of Film Commission Torino Piemonte. \nCOMP(H)OST is based on an idea from Marianna Vecellio and Sofía Hernández Chong Cuy \, and it is curated by Francesca Comisso and Luisa Perlo for a.titolo\, Marianna Vecellio for the Castello di Rivoli\, Lorenzo Gigotti\, Valerio Mannucci and Valerio Mattioli for NERO. \n  \nWhat is Comp(h)ost\nCOMP(H)OST is a project in which the notion of composting meets the one of hospitality. With its references to the concepts of soil\, waste and fertility\, compost is a place of mixture and constant transformation between states of matter\, of alliances between forms of life\, in which “similar” and “different” are co-present in a condition of vitality and growth. \nInspired by the compost notion developed by philosopher and biologist Donna Haraway in her texts\, the formula of comp(h)ost proposed in this project takes on two complementary nuances: an organic one\, which concerns ecological issues in all their various articulations\, and a social one\, which examines the political and economic problems of our time. In this dual variation\, the project explores directions of artistic research and contemporary thought that in the light of current emergencies provide visions and productive suggestions of new scenarios and possible new life practices. \nBy evoking the generative and fertilizing power of the guest\, COMP(H)OST starts from the figure of the artist as an embodiment of mobility\, of “extraneousness” and as an essential element for the triggering of processes\, in order to reactivate their function as investigators about the themes of cohabitation\, ties\, cooperation\, cohabitation and the relationship between nature and artifice\, between waste and resource\, between what is and what could be. \nFor this purpose\, COMP(H)OST involves the artists Claire Pentecost\, Rossella Biscotti and Otobong Nkanga\, in the production of performances and workshops conceived specifically for the project\, as part of a programme of seminars\, conferences\, panel discussions\, talks and live performances that since July 2019 has already hosted\, among others\, the Dutch artists and designers Metahaven in conversation with the curator Leonardo Dellanoce\, Diann Bauer\, artist and co-founder of the xenofeminist collective Laboria Cuboniks\, philosophers Vinciane Despret and Emanuele Coccia. \nCOMP(H)OST declines the notions of hospitality and compost\, as an expression of exchange\, synergy and mixture\, in the very structure of the project\, which is realized through a real engagement of the city and its territory. People\, stories\, places\, planning and skills are involved in the development of the research and projects of the invited artists\, in order to establish new connections and give the audience a chance to learn about contexts and knowledge that are sometimes not very well known outside of their fields of specialization. In this perspective\, COMP(H)OST involved so far experts\, artists\, and realities such as the PAV – Parco Arte Vivente\, the non-profit organization COORPI Coordinamento Danza Piemonte\, and the new Circolo del Design. \nCOMP(H)OST is also a Communication Laboratory\, headed by filmmaker Irene Dionisio and photographer Francesca Cirilli\, for the production of audiovisual and photographic documentation and story-telling of the project. Started in May\, the Laboratory of COMP(H)OST is hosted at the Film Commission Torino Piemonte and involves a group of young artists\, photographers and filmmakers\, selected through a call for proposals\, composed by Daniele Alef Grillo\, Laura Barrios\, Michela Curti\, Matteo Grasso\, Federico Pozuelo\, Isabella Quaranta\, Michela Ronco\, Giovanni Sambo\, Francesca Ticca\, Giulia Travaglio\, Ettore Ventura and Carla Vivalda.
