Ettinger. Bracha\u2019s Notebooks<\/em><\/strong><em>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Within the overall Museum program of <em>Espressioni<\/em> in 2021 \u2013 2022, Castello di Rivoli Research Institute (CRRI), in collaboration with the curatorial department of the Museum, organizes the first solo exhibition in an Italian institution dedicated to Bracha L. Ettinger (Tel Aviv, 1948) whose artistic practice intertwines with her work and research as a philosopher and psychoanalyst.<\/p>\n<p>Bracha L. Ettinger\u2019s practice has its roots in her autobiographical past, in the history of her parents who survived the Holocaust; it explores the concepts of trauma, oblivion, the feminine and <em>matrixial<\/em> gaze, of the space of the unconscious and of the transition from invisible to visible enlightening art\u2019s capacity of \u201chealing\u201d. Her notebooks, as her paintings, are characterized by a dimension between the abstract and the figurative, obtained through fine brushmarks and layers of color and shapes that create an atmosphere oscillating between darkness and light, and invite viewers to immerse themselves in an intimate and spiritual dimension.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition presents a selection of 5 paintings and approximately 50 notebooks and used by the artist to annotate and trace her associations, reflections, and working notes, joining together words and drawings. These notebooks are written in three languages (French, English and Hebrew) and divided between listening notebooks and artist\u2019s notebooks; they testify Bracha L. Ettinger\u2019s dual activity and constitute a privileged point of view for understanding her practice and her thinking. Bracha L. Ettinger\u2019s notebooks are displayed in a site-specific and unitary installation in the historical gallery of Castello di Rivoli called \u201cRoom of the Sleeping Putti\u201d that used to be the King\u2019s room and that was decorated in 1720. The vitrines, where the notebooks are presented are in dialog with the frescoes of the ceiling, creating an organic experience for the visitors who can move freely to see closely each notebook in a meditative atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>On the occasion of Bracha L. Ettinger\u2019 solo exhibition, Castello di Rivoli Research Institute (CRRI) will receive the exhibited notebooks from the artist, and will start organizing their digitalization, transcription and translation. At the end of the exhibition this material will remain available to worldwide scholars and researchers for consultation in the CRRI premises, located within the Museum Library.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition is accompanied by a bilingual (English\/Italian) publication with new essays by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Marcella Beccaria and Andrea Viliani including a selection of images from the artist\u2019s notebooks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Castello di Rivoli CRRI\u2019s activities are supported by <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Picture-2.png\" data-lbwps-width=\"213\" data-lbwps-height=\"161\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Picture-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-33833\" src=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Picture-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"77\" height=\"58\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Picture-2.png 213w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Picture-2-180x136.png 180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 77px) 100vw, 77px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The exhibition and catalog are supported by<\/strong><strong> Artis, New York; Richard Saltoun Gallery, London; Braverman Gallery, Tel Aviv; Ufficio Culturale Ambasciata di Israele, Rome<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-2021-10-21-at-12.23.47.png\" data-lbwps-width=\"1208\" data-lbwps-height=\"156\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-2021-10-21-at-12.23.47.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-33832\" src=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Screenshot-2021-10-21-at-12.23.47.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"39\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Biography<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Bracha L.
