Tu vai con amici e i bambini al Lido di Venezia, è una splendida giornata di sole. Cammini sulla spiaggia e arrivi al Festival del Cinema. Vedi pure la semi-diva che arriva sul motoscafo. Te ne freghi di George Clooney. E poi vedi l'istallazione di Daniel Glaser e Magdalena Kunz. A Venezia l'arte è quasi ovunque...
txt: The Pool NYC - Daniel Glaser/Magdalena Kunz
At The Pool NYC’s 3rd personal exhibition, Daniel Glaser and Magdalena Kunz will be presenting their most recent works. Exhibiting their cinematographic sculptures internationally, the artist couple from Switzerland have always caused great sensation. They call their figures, a mixture of film and sculpture the public often mistakes for real people, Talking Heads. In the work entitled PERFORMANCE, five performers dressed as Talking Heads rehearse a piece on the state of the world. The work JONATHAN shows a forty-something man in a rolling chair, with a leg and both arms in plaster, talking on the phone about art, artists, galleries, sales and purchases. Finally, VOICES III was created during an artist-in-residence stay of the artist duo in South Africa in 2008: six poets, wrapped in wool blankets, talk about life in the townships, formulating questions about the social and political situation in South Africa.
