Remco Torenbosch's 'Europa' Opens at Gamec Bergamo
The final chapter of Remco Torenbosch's three-month residency at Gamec Bergamo, part of The Blank circuit, culminates in a solo exhibition titled 'Europa,' opening June 2012 at 18:30. The courtyard of Gamec is transformed into a public library featuring texts on Italian and European issues, under the title 'European conceptualization in analytical philosophy on history and present.' The entire city is engaged through 'Places of Thought,' minimal interventions that connect history and current events. Highlights include 'Arboretum' at Parco Suardi and 'Governo ladro di futuro' near the central station, addressing themes like education, labor, and pensions. The residency space itself hosts 'Care,' a group of plants in the apartment at Via Giacomo Quarenghi where Torenbosch lived, creating interaction between artist, viewer, and institution.
