Biennale Giovani Monza: Under-35 Artists from Five Academies

The Biennale Giovani Monza features artists under 35 who are academy students or recent graduates, curated by five professors: Marcello Maloberti (NABA), Stefano W. Pasquini (Albertina di Torino), Bruno Muzzolini (Brera), Cesare Viel (Ligustica di Genova), and Davide Rivalta (Clementina di Bologna). The exhibition is divided into small pavilions assigned to each academy. Notable works include Barbara Baroncini's multimedia installation combining video, painting, and engraving evoking natural landscapes; Lisa Dalfino and Sacha Kanah's polymaterial installation in the rotunda by Giuseppe Piermarini using organic materials like exploded crystals and Siena earth; Martina Brembati's floor lettering 'DISINCANTO' and Gaia De Megni's marble slabs with film dialogue excerpts; Tea Andreoletti's analog work requiring visitors to attend a lunch invitation; Elisa Bertaglia's paintings of adolescents floating in forests; Elena Hamerski's artist book on poisonous and beneficial plants; and Silvia Giuseppone's photographs mimicking advertising style from social media. Artribune contributed a catalog exploring the poetics of artists and tutors. The biennale aims to connect young artists with institutions for professional development beyond academia.
