Daniele Puppi's 'Eh Lampu!' Disrupts Accademia di San Luca

The 'Eh Lampu!' exhibition, showcasing the work of Daniele Puppi (born 1970, Pordenone), is currently on display at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome, under the curation of Marco Tirelli. The title, a Sardinian phrase, signifies the exhibition's jarring effect on the Baroque architecture of Palazzo Carpegna. Renowned for his contributions to video art, Puppi crafts an immersive atmosphere using projectors and subwoofers that challenge the audience's perception. The exhibition delves into themes of bodily limits, societal norms, vision, and action. Notable pieces include 'Coyote Venus,' featuring a nude in a foggy setting; 'Downtown Tunes,' showcasing urban scenes from Los Angeles; 'Il Lancio del Sasso,' where a stone is thrown against a wall; and 'The Chain,' an animated critique of human nature's cycles.
