Simone Bergantini's 'How to Dance Rave Music' at Galleria Giampaolo Abbondio

Simone Bergantini (born 1977 in Velletri) presents 'How to Dance Rave Music' at Galleria Giampaolo Abbondio in Milan. The project deconstructs and reconstructs rave culture analytically. An artist's book ironically serves as a manual for approaching raves, reminiscent of old-fashioned guides. Single photographs isolate dancers and rave locations, capturing paradoxical beauty. Photographic installations repeatedly capture a single subject dancing, blending subject and environment. Each image cycle is housed in a typical cable and amplifier transport case. The project demonstrates that understanding cultural phenomena requires adopting the corresponding mindset.
