Agne Raceviciute's RHEA Extended at Fondazione Querini Stampalia and Casa Venezia Until October 4, 2026
The exhibition titled RHEA – Sull'orlo dell'immagine, created by Agne Raceviciute (born 1988 in Klaipeda, Lithuania), has been prolonged until October 4, 2026, at Fondazione Querini Stampalia and Casa Venezia in Venice, coinciding with The Venice Glass Week. Curated by Cristiana Collu, this showcase investigates glass as a medium for imagery, emphasizing themes of the body and perception. At Fondazione Querini Stampalia, Giovanna Manzotti's photograph and glass piece challenge the limits of representation. Meanwhile, Casa Venezia displays Murano glass sculptures that reflect the tranquility of still water. Raceviciute's artistic endeavors encompass photography, collage, and video, with her series Il piacere del vestiario (2008) depicting masked figures in designed environments, highlighting the interplay between visibility and obscurity.
