Uninspired Architecture: Public Space and Public Memory in Albania
Evento espositivo curato da Vincent W.J. van Gerven Oei e Marco Mazzi, sul ripristino della memoria collettiva nello spazio pubblico e sulle potenziali modalità di riattivazione attraverso differenti canali mediatici; vernissage sabato 25 gennaio ore 18:00
This event-exhibition will sketch out a potential exhibition on the (re)enactment of public memory in public space, fleeting or more stable forms of monumentality, and potential modes of reactivation in different types of media. On the cover of the book from which this event-exhibition borrows its title, Marco Mazzi suggests that “photography is the exact opposite of pure immediacy.” The process of photography’s infinite deceleration from the immediacy of the event until an immeasurable standstill, which is emphasized by the importance of publications in the exhibition space – hermetic structures compared to the openness of the painting –, is traced through a series of works that all engage in a certain rearrangement of history and memory present in Albanian public space.
