The Only Stable Thing: Group Exhibition in Venice Explores Kinetic Art

A group exhibition titled "The Only Stable Thing" opened in Venice, drawing its name from Jean Tinguely's statement "The only stable thing is movement." The show presents works in constant flux, from slow to rapid transformations, creating a suspenseful experience for viewers. Featured artists include Arcangelo Sassolino with his sculpture "Public Morality" (2019), which combines fragile structure with a rock poised to destroy balance, and Carolin Liebl & Nikolas Schmid-Pfähler with robotic installation "They 5" (2018) and electromagnetic piece "Object C" (2017), which challenge the machine as a human-controlled entity. The exhibition was reviewed by Valentina Poli for Artribune.
