Jason Dodge's Poetic Disruptions at Franco Noero Gallery
Jason Dodge (Newton, 1969) presents an exhibition at Galleria Franco Noero in Turin, employing the literary principle of ostranenie—making the familiar strange—to deconstruct everyday objects. His installations reify waiting and refusal, using spatial context to shift perspective. Dodge describes his works as "the things that fall off us while we are busy living," positioning them as means to interpret life's chaos rather than ends. The show draws parallels to poetic meter, balancing general composition with particular focus. Federica Maria Giallombardo reviews the exhibition for Artribune.
