Frenetic Standstill
3 - 12 February 2021
GAM - Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Turin, Italy
Artissima 2020, directed by Ilaria Bonacossa, changes shape and presents an Unplugged format: an intimate version of the fair, expanded in times and spaces, with digital projects and physical shows.
A new format, extended throughout the city and online that brings together physical exhibitions produced with Fondazione Torino Musei and digital projects: an acoustic version of the fair that focuses on the instrument (the works) and the voice (the galleries).
In its physical guise, Artissima Unplugged presents three exhibition projects in the museums of Fondazione Torino Musei – GAM - Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Palazzo Madama - Museo Civico d’Arte Antica and MAO Museo d’Arte Orientale – from 7 November 2020 to 9 January 2021. The exhibitions, presented under the theme Frenetic Standstill and curated by Ilaria Bonacossa, feature works provided by the galleries selected for this edition of the fair.
The theme Frenetic Standstill prompts reflections on the concept of acceleration as opposed to inertia, and on the increasingly urgent need to change our paradigms and to seek possible responses to the present crisis.
The artwork 'Tree of Knowlede' by Keita Miyazaki will be shown at GAM in Turin for the duration of the exhibition.
