Alessandro Sambini's 'People at an Exhibition' at Galleria Michela Rizzo
Alessandro Sambini (born 1982 in Rovigo) presents 'People at an exhibition' at Galleria Michela Rizzo in Venice, curated by Denis Isaia, until September 17, 2016. The main installation-performance collapses the roles of Spectrum, Operator, and Spectator into a single viewer, exposing the ambiguity of spectatorship. The photographic series 'Guardati intorno' (2016), shot at the Reggia di Monza, uses augmented reality to overlay digital effects onto landscapes, blurring reality and fiction. The exhibition critiques how images today are defined by their circulation rather than their origin.
