dc.description.abstractThe exhibition project Video-Vitality. Crossings in Italian Art, conceived for the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in Berlin, proposes a selection of works that sparks reflections on the use of video and film by Italian artists from the 1970s to the present day — artists who have pushed beyond any disciplinary boundary and contributed to the reinvention of artistic languages. Moving between performance, cinematic mastery, and found footage, montage and digital composition, the artists selected blend genres and codes, creating different "emotional situations" and mental states of irrepressible vitality.-

arts.review.researchContextThe title VIDEO-VITALITY carries with it the most significant and little-known Italian experimentations in Berlin, approaching video as a synesthetic, "vitalistic" experience of relation with the world — both inner and outer: an indispensable bond, performative and regenerative in nature, between our liquid, infinitely mutable being and the territories, contexts, and realities that always bring together nature and culture. Together, video works by both established artists — such as Gianfranco Baruchello and Luca Maria Patella, Eva Marisaldi and Agnese Purgatorio, Claire Fontaine and the Masbedo — and younger ones, such as Filippo Berta, Giovanni Giaretta, Nicoletta Grillo and Benedetta Fioravanti, continuously express an expressive field sui generis, generating times and spaces free from visual and intellectual conventions, which, even when possessing a narrative structure, keep transmitting unusual moving images and visions carrying human energies. The project thus aims to be a multi-voiced video-vitalistic journey along the edges of the human condition, its drives and its transgressions. On this journey we will encounter not only apparently linear experiences, but also continuous visual and semantic displacements of images from various contexts — what Berlin-based artist Hito Steyerl has described with the term travelling images. We will find works where fiction becomes reality and vice versa, and where the shifting meaning of images is brought to the fore — a terrain extensively explored by Gianfranco Baruchello throughout his long career. Images will emerge that are tied not only to an interpretation of nature and human feelings, but also to a documentary or narrative dimension, symptomatic of the desire to represent and "reshape" experiences, even when entirely invented. Not forgetting that narratives — of any kind — interpret and open up new cognitive and perceptual horizons.-
