PERFORMING FOR THE CAMERA-46
The Performing for the Camera project, dedicated to the students of the art academies of Florence (Italian and international), comes from the idea of using the Marina Abramović exhibition. The Cleaner (21 September 2018-20 January 2019) as a research ground on the relationship between photography and performance, offering students the opportunity to try their hand at producing new works of art and publishing a publication.
The activity, which will have a three-month development, will allow students to approach the close link between performance and photography by analyzing the relationships and specificities of the two artistic languages. Among the events at Palazzo Strozzi are also scheduled two talks with the artists Francesca Banchelli and Caterina Pecchioli to encourage a direct confrontation with two professionals whose practice is related to the subject matter.
The theme will offer students an overview of photography used as a tool for performance documentation, or practiced as a performative act in itself, to be interpreted and applied in the field of artistic research. In the second phase of the project the works created by the students will become the material for the realization of a publication edited by the students themselves.
The project is carried out in collaboration with:
LABA – Libera Accademia di Belle Arti (prof. Massimo Agus e Maurizio Di Lella)
Lorenzo de’ Medici (prof. Gianluca Maver)
Syracuse University (prof.ssa Stefania Talini)
SACI College of Art and Design (prof. Jacopo Santini e Romeo Di Loreto)
SRISA International School of Art (prof.ssa Gloria Marco Munera).
