La città provvisoria: eight artists explore domestic space at Spazio Murat, Bari
Curated by Melissa Destino, the exhibition 'La città provvisoria' at Spazio Murat in Bari showcases the work of eight artists who delve into modern living. Supported by Moving Center and Bundeskanzleramt Österreich, the show launched just before the venue underwent renovations. Aglaia Konrad exhibits a collection of chaotic photocopies from architecture texts, while Ann Agee presents painted interiors on mulberry paper. Birgit Jürgensesen explores spaces through shadows and body projections. Inga Meldere designs two-dimensional decor compositions. Stefano Faoro examines cramped car interiors, and Maruša Sagadin pays homage to Zaha Hadid's designs with wooden footwear. Judith Fergerl encapsulates urban sounds within expandable cubic forms, and Roxane Huilmand's video 'Muurwerk,' shot by Wolfgang Kolb, traces a rhythmic journey through Brussels. The exhibition was reviewed by Marilena Di Tursi for Artribune.
