Come anticipato nel precedente post, ecco la mostra che dovete vedere a Venezia. Chi ancora deve andare a @labiennale chiude, non può perdersi CANICULA, al Complesso dell'Ospedaletto, promossa dalla Fondazione In Between Art Film e curata da Alessandro Rabottini e Leonardo Bigazzi e scenografia di 2050+ Kudos!
E' una collettiva di videoarte, il terzo capitolo di una trilogia. Che è un po' come dire una mostra di pittura, ovvero tutto e niente. Perchè il video è un linguaggio, non un contenuto. Proprio come la pittura. Ma lo sottolineo perché la produzione e l'esposizione della videoarte si sono notevolmente ridimensionata negli ultimi anni. E, per quanto mi riguarda, è un vero peccato. Ne sono ancora piu convinta dopo avere visto Canicula (e Liminal di Pierre Huyghe a Punta della Dogana alla Biennale 2024).
Lavori potenti, valorizzati da un allestimento suggestivo che dialoga in modo magistrale con una location densa di energia, anche greve. Canicula è un'immersione nelle profondità umane, fino ai suoi abissi piu opachi.
Quando sono uscita alla luce del sole, ho preso fiato. Mi sentivo piu umana. Che poi è quello che cerco sempre nell'arte: il senso di essere umani. Nel bene e nel male.

P.S. Da curatrice, non ho potuto evitare di pensare al budget a disposizione dei colleghi. D'altra parte, molte mostre con budget davvero faraonici passano senza lasciare il segno. Canicula, invece, segna

‘A Ball, A Wall and a Little More’ from Union Issue 08⁠
⁠
There are endless ways to start a game. A ball could be kicked across the pavement, thrown against a wall or sent astray in the direction of a passerby. Before the stadium, the scoreboard and the spectacle, many games begin with much less: somewhere to play.⁠
⁠
It was this idea that drew Milan-based architecture studio 2050+ to the frontón, essentially a wall built to play against, central to pelota vasca, a family of Basque ball games. 2050+ conceived the fronton for the 12th edition of Concontrico, the International Festival of Architecture and Design in Logrono. Their project Frontones Danzantes temporarily turned the city’s functioning Revell.n car park into an open-air sporting ground, with three mobile frontones for pelota, basketball and football.⁠
⁠
In Issue 08, @absolutelyhilary studies @2050.plus’s project Frontones Danzantes as a bid to reinstall simplicity and function in sport architecture and design. ⁠

Sneak peak from the upcoming video documentation of CANICULA, where 2050+ architects Ippolito Pestellini Laparelli e Francesca Lantieri expand upon the concept of the exhibition’s scenography

Developed in close relation with the content of the works, as well as with the architecture and history of the Complesso dell’Ospedaletto, the exhibition design becomes an additional perceptive and narrative element in the overall experience of the exhibition, starting from the use of materials that evoke and make manifest the erosive action of muggy weather and sunlight. The exhibition route comprises the environments that house the works, as well as rooms and spaces that appear isolated and protected, as if in an effort to stem the destructive potential of damaging external agents. And it is the staging of a hypothetical dialogue with a threatening outside world that guides the use of light throughout the exhibition – a light that hints, at different levels of intensity, at an intolerable climate bearing down on the space of the exhibition

CANICULA is open until November 22 at the Complesso dell’Ospedaletto in Venice and features 8 new site-specific video installations commissioned from Lawrence Abu Hamdan, Massimo D’Anolfi and Martina Parenti, Roman Khimei and Yarema Malashchuk, Janis Rafa, P. Staff, Wang Tuo, Yuyan Wang, and Maya Watanabe

We collected, sorted, assembled,
and let fragments take shape.

A few moments from a workshop led by @2050.plus ,
with @eri.pet & @___radicale___ ,
where scraps became part of a process of collecting, classifying, and exploring possibilities.

WORKSHOP SEASON 2026 | Scrap-Kammer: A Cabinet of Curiosities

In this workshop, participants explored the taxonomy of the Scrap-Kammer, treating discarded materials and production leftovers as valuable resources rather than waste. By collecting, classifying, and assembling fragments found across Boisbuchet, they designed and built a contemporary cabinet of curiosities that functioned as both an archive and a working device. The workshop invited participants to investigate architecture as an operational framework rather than a finished object: a device that recorded processes, hosted residues, and revealed the intelligence of making.
