Magic Electric Bus<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Art, Literature, and Open air. The electric bus to Castello di Rivoli<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

A program of Castello di Rivoli Museo d\u2019Arte Contemporanea in collaboration with Iveco, Arriva, and Enel X, Libreria Internazionale Luxemburg, Turin, with the support of Faust, Turin<\/strong><\/p>\n

Castello di Rivoli Museo d\u2019Arte Contemporanea presents Magic Electric Bus<\/em><\/strong>, a proposal by Gianluigi Ricuperati\/Faust. The project is coordinated by Roberta Aghemo, with the curatorial assistance of Giulia Colletti.\u00a0From July to December 2021<\/strong>, once a month, an arts program will take place on board an electric shuttle, during the journey of approximately 45 minutes from Turin to Rivoli. Decorated by the artist Claudia Comte, The Magic Electric Bus<\/em> connects Turin to Rivoli and welcomes personalities and artists, who will present special contents to the participating public.\u00a0The first journey will take place on Saturday July 17 with three guests from Turin<\/strong>: the novelist Gianluigi Ricuperati<\/strong>; the artist Ramona Ponzini<\/strong>, who will present a site-specific soundtrack; and the artist Guglielmo Castelli<\/strong>, who will produce a collaborative work with the travelers. On the bus, Castello di Rivoli Director Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev<\/strong> will introduce and moderate the program.<\/p>\n

Magic Electric Bus<\/em> intends to create a dialogue between literature, art, and Museum exhibitions. Each journey will involve an author and an artist on the bus and also writers connected remotely.<\/p>\n

As for the project Glass-nost<\/em> \u2013 organized by Castello di Rivoli in 2020, Magic Electric Bus<\/em> takes its cue from the notion of transparency. The windows of the shuttle are an element that divides but at the same time offers an unexpected reading of the city of Turin and connection between art and life.<\/p>\n

Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev<\/strong>, Director of the Castello di Rivoli, states \u201cIn 1967 the Beatles released Magical Mystery Tour<\/em>. Fifty years later, at the crossroads of the ecological crisis and the digital revolution, Castello di Rivoli presents Magic Electric Bus<\/em>, a program in collaboration with Iveco Bus<\/strong>, Arriva<\/strong>, and Enel X<\/strong>. Once a month, the public will be able to hop on an electric bus from Turin to Rivoli, and live an artistic and magical experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAn invitation to travel \/ to that country resembling you<\/em>. With these words, Baudelaire reminds us that movement is a fundamental condition of living creatures that avoid being still. Covering the distance between Turin and Rivoli, our Magic Bus fosters a dialogue between authors, artists, and arts professionals. As a narrator and writer, who loves to dialogue with artists and representatives of other fields\u201d, states Gianluigi Ricuperati<\/strong>, \u201cI cannot imagine any more suitable condition than an electric bus to invoke the necessary alliance of places that look so much alike.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Saturday July 17, participants will meet at 12.30 pm at the Libreria Internazionale Luxemburg<\/strong>, Via Cesare Battisti 7 in Turin, and continue on foot towards Piazza Castello where the shuttle will depart.<\/p>\n

Biographies <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Guglielmo Castelli <\/strong>(Turin, 1987) lives and works in Turin.

Ramona Ponzini<\/strong> (Piacenza, 1979) lives and works in Turin. Her practice combines visual art and literature, with noise and jazz impromptu experimentation. Ponzini follows a purely conceptual matrix, crossing the idea of \u201cediting\u201d and \u201csampling\u201d of elements encoded and reprocessed through the use of loop machines.<\/p>\n

Gianluigi Ricuperati <\/strong>(Turin, 1977) is a writer. He has been director of Domus Academy for five years and interdisciplinary curator of the cultural program of MIA Fair since 2015. His essays, reportages, and novels have been published by Rizzoli, Bollati Boringhieri, Minimum Fax, Mondadori, Feltrinelli, and Gallimard. He collaborates with Italian and international magazines, newspapers such as \u2018Volume\u2019, \u2018Domus\u2019, \u2018Abitare\u2019, \u2018Vogue\u2019, \u2018Dazed & Confused\u2019, \u2018La Repubblica\u2019, \u2018Il Sole 24 Ore\u2019, \u2018Flash Art\u2019 and \u2018032c\u2019. He is the founder of Faust, the first center for the resurrection of books and aggregator of creative communities in Turin.<\/p>\n
