M-CITY GOES 3D
The collaboration of a visual artist and an experimental musician has resulted in a most interesting and thought-provoking artistic project. Mariusz Waras and Krzysztof Topolski’s spectacular site-specific installation was made specifically to be exhibited in the biggest room at the Centre of Contemporary Art Znaki Czasu in Toruń.
For both artists, working on the project was a novelty. Mariusz Waras, an artist who has so far found artistic expression in two-dimensional murals, now constructs a huge, three-dimensional object; Arszyn supplies it with a special interface for interactive involvement of the viewer, offering each and everyone the possibility of creating an individual soundtrack. The vast, engine-driven factory is accommodated in an institution dedicated to contemporary art, like an ironic comment on the mechanisms of the production of artifacts and cultural policy. The m-city factory produces nothing, it serves no useful purpose, but it stirs the senses nevertheless, and its huge dimensions emphasize the transformations that contemporary culture is undergoing. This factory needs no workers. The engines that keep it going require little attention. The ghostly nature of the installation evokes a vague sense of danger and forecasts the end of physical work.

Work is the source of nearly all the misery in the world. Almost any evil youd care to name comes from working or from living in a world designed for work. In order to stop suffering, we have to stop working.

KAYONE @ TRIENNALE BOVISA (MILANO - ITALY)
ARTIST: KAYONE (ITALY)
WEBSITE: http://www.kayone.it/
SHOW: KAYONE: CARATTERI MOBILI
15TH SEPTEMBER - 2ND OCTOBER 2009
TRIENNALE BOVISA
Via Raffaele Lambruschini, 31 - Milano (ITALY)
SHOW WEBSITE: http://www.caratterimobili.eu/
OPENING: 15TH SEPTEMBER 2009 at 6.30 p.m.
FREE ENTRY
Mantovani ADV, con il patrocinio del Comune di Milano Cultura, presenta alla Triennale Bovisa la mostra dell’artista KayOne, Caratteri Mobili. Caratteri Mobili come quelli dei primi Graffiti sui treni della metropolitana di New york, caratteri mobili come la stampa di Gutenberg, caratteri mobili come quelle lettere che nei quadri di KayOne fluttuano in uno spazio di colore ed energia gestuale e materica.
Cosa spinge uno dei primi e più noti “writers” italiani come KayOne a mettere in un quadro la propria forza espressiva? Qual è il rapporto tra la strada e l’atelier? Tra la tribù trasgressiva e borderline cui si sente di appartenere e la solitudine dell’artista di fronte alla tela bianca? Nella storia creativa di KayOne, iniziata ormai da più di vent’anni, convive questa duplicità, che si risolve in ricchezza artistica: i suoi quadri non sono come i suoi “graffiti”, come i “wall drawings” che hanno colorato Milano (e che continuano a farlo…), eppure ne sono la derivazione diretta, che non può essere letta solo secondo i canoni tradizionali della storia dell’arte, ma come un’esperienza fluida, nuova, che non ripercorre strade già frequentate ma le reinventa. Il linguaggio è nuovo, le forme di questo linguaggio apparentemente no: la contraddizione non si risolve se non in un nuovo sguardo che considera fondamentale il contesto in cui sono nate. Questo mostra affronta l’opera “su strada” e su tela di KayOne proprio con questa intenzione, analizzandola nel suo contesto, e dimostrando come essa sia anticipatrice, sintomatica ed esemplare di un nuovo filone dell’arte contemporanea.

This summer, Caramundo organizes the biggest graffiti exhibition ever made in Rotterdam: R.U.A- Reflexo on Urban Art - Lines, Colours and Forms of Brazilian Urban Art.
Rua in Portuguese means street. The use of public spaces as a support for art is widely developed in Brazil, and because of its quality and beauty the view on graffiti changed: graffiti stops being seen as vandalism and becomes a genuine form of contemporary art.
Caramundo invited 10 Brazilian graffiti artists to paint huge walls in the streets of Rotterdam to show urban and contemporary Brazilian art next to institutionalized art of museums and galleries. The participating graffiti writers are known for their work intervening in public space, but also for exhibitions in galleries all over the world.
