BODY OF BLOOD | Process II - PENTESILEA | Teatro delle Bambole DESCRIPTION:  \nFondazione Morra and Teatro delle Bambole\nin collaboration with Casa del Contemporaneo\npresent \n  \nOEDIPUS. BODY OF BLOOD\nProcess II – PENTESILEA \nInternational Masterclass on the relationship between sound and body\nfrom Kleist’s “Penthesilea” in Hermann Nitsch’s reinterpretation\nheld by Andrea Cramarossa \n  \n“… She loved him so much that she could\, at the same time\, have eaten him out of love.”\nThese words\, so close to myth\, relate Penthesilea to mythic elements. One associates\, these words\, with the meal of the totem\, the meal of God in the Eucharist\, the flesh of God\, the host. Eating the body of the beloved means complete identification with it. Maximum love: ecstatic transgressive love leads to the concept of laceration.\nPerhaps\, the only word that remains after Penthesilea’s sacrifice is\, in fact\, an ancient and guttural verse or song\, a deep song related to the primordial scream\, that of birth that carries within itself the dazzling and clear sense of death\, that of the myth that\, absolutely\, holds within itself the entire meaning of human existence.\nAndrea Cramarossa \n  \nPurposes\n– Get in touch with your own body through the practice of the ritual.\n– Get in touch with your own sound through the practice of the ritual.\n– Take possession of the “sense of the sacred” starting from the “sacred everyday”.\n– Make your own body sacred.\n– Make your own sound sacred.\n– Make the place sacred through the practice of sacrifice. \nGoals\n– To Study the text “King Oedipus/Pentesilea” by Hermann Nitsch to reach an immersive ritual practice.\n– To get involved by the myth of Oedipus to consolidate a collective and community narrative practice of the myth itself.\n– – To reach a possible “place” where the actor consider the sacredness of his being on stage with the surroundings\n– To Assimilate the sense of the sacred in theatrical practice.\n– To Learn the mechanism of regression (loss of one’s structural bonds – physical and mental prison) to identify the primordial physical impulses (Dionysian process).\n– Learn the mechanism of the sublimation of these impulses to make a mystical artistic creation of self-awareness.\n– Considering the artistic act of sacrifice as a need for transgression.\n– Considering the artistic act of love as a need for sublimation. \nWho is the Masterclass for?\nThe Masterclass is aimed at actors and actresses\, dancers\, musicians\, singers\, directors and directors of all ages and of all nationalities (held multilingual); also open to pupils with experience\, even occasional and not in-depth\, but felt and participated in the dramatic art and to anyone who wants to probe the relationships between sound and body through the text on Kleist’s “Penthesilea” in Hermann Nitsch’s “Oedipus Rex.”\nThe relationship with the body provides for the possibility of considering it in its nakedness.\nAt the end of the itinerary\, a double opening of the work to the audience is foreseen.\nAll participants will receive a certificate of participation.\nThe Masteclass is limited to a maximum of 20 participants. \nBiographical notes\nAndrea Cramarossa is a poet\, director and actor who\, after years of intense personal studies in the field of vocal research\, sound and voice applied to singing and speaking\, theorize\, on an experimental basis\, an approach to dramatic art through the use and knowledge of sound.\nHe is the first to take advantage of listening to the sound of the human voice in order to arrive at dramatic art by structuring a real acting model that is inspired by the work on sound by Gisela Rhomert and by Hermann Nitsch’s Theater of Orgies and Mysteries. \nCramarossa regularly holds workshops on voice and acting in Italy and abroad. He receives numerous awards in the artistic field including: “Young Oscar – European Personality” and the “Aligi D’Oro” Prize for Dramatic Art.

The exhibition opens on Saturday 22 October at 6 pm.\, offering the public a hitherto unseen dialogue between a wide selection of works from the malaktion walküre and the relics of the last action\, directed by Hermann Nitsch in Naples. \nThe first set of works on show in the Museum’s ground-floor rooms come from Nitsch’s pictorial action in the form of a scenic event at the concert performance of Richard Wagner’s The Valkyrie at the Bayreuth Festival in the summer of 2021. \n“I wish to put on a painting action where the colours of the poured and smeared paint\, spanning the whole spectrum of the rainbow\, attempt to compete in a positive sense with the blazing colouration of Wagnerian music. The events of the actual act of painting are to be like music. Sounds turn into colours. The painter is stirred and aroused\, vents himself in the painting process. He is the first actor. He feels the very substance of the paint\, the fluidness\, the slithery slim\, the pulp of the thick paint\,” Hermann Nitsch wrote on that occasion (Wien\, 1938 – Mistelbach\, 2022). “I have enthusiastically loved Wagner’s work. The gesamtkunstwerk was his priority. It is experienced through all the senses. He was always my teacher\, and still is today.” \n“The total work of art in Nitsch’s interpretation – Lorenzo Mango writes in a composite essay accompanying the exhibition- is redolent of Wagner’s memory but goes beyond it. In the Orgies Mysteries Theatre\, it is determined by experience\, contact with the vital in its most absolute and primal form\, the senses\, and the sensuality of theatre”. Thus\, Nitsch does not merely set the stage for The Valkyrie; rather\, he sets in motion\, as the action unfolds\, a process of intensification and expansion of the sensory experience that lies at the heart of the Orgies Mysteries Theater. The Bayreuth experience will be reproduced through video projections\, documentary\, and photographic material\, together with a selection of Nitsch’s drawings. \n“I wish to put on a painting action where the colours of the poured and smeared paint\, spanning the whole spectrum of the rainbow\, attempt to compete in a positive sense with the blazing colouration of wagnerian music. The events of the actual act of painting are to be like music. Sounds turn into colours.” \nIn dialogue with the large paintings\, the relics and documents from the 158.aktion (2020) – the last one to be led by Nitsch – will be on show to the public for the first time. In this action\, the Austrian master acknowledged the primary importance in terms of dynamism and intensity of the “Sinfonia Napoli” – an integral part of the event\, performed by the Orchestra Scarlatti under the baton of Andrea Cusumano – through which\, in September 2020\, he wished to celebrate both Giuseppe Morra and the city of Naples on the occasion of the twelfth anniversary of his Neapolitan Museum-Workshop.

Fassung (the 6-day play – 2nd version) \nthe 6-day play of the o. m. theatre is a work in progress. everything i’ve ever done\, my action painting\, all my performance actions\, my music\, they were all precursors for a never-to-be completed work. in 1998 i succeeded in staging a possible version of the 6-day play in the orgies mysteries theatre at prinzendorf. in 2022 i wish to stage another version of the 6-day play. the music\, extended into organ sounds and escalating into music of the spheres\, is becoming all the more essential. \nHermann Nitsch \n24 years after the first staging of the 6-day play (1998)\, this summer the total work of art is to once again be condensed into a concentrated interplay of all its components. It was the cherished wish of Hermann Nitsch (*29 August 1938 in Vienna; Ϯ 18 April 2022 in Mistelbach) that his 6-day play be performed this year in the new version. The performances of the 1st and 2nd days are to take place on 30 and 31 July 2022. Rita Nitsch is fulfilling the wish of the artist posthumously\, supported by the core team of Andrea Cusumano (musical direction)\, Leonhard Kopp and Frank Gassner. The other four days will be staged in the coming years. \nThe Orgies Mysteries Theatre \nHermann Nitsch’s idea for an action performance lasting six days and six nights goes back to the year 1957. At the time working with the medium of literature\, the artist\, influenced by the attempts of Richard Wagner and Alexander Scriabin to realise a total work of art\, imagined his own action theatre\, oriented on synaesthetic experience engrossing all five senses: the Orgies Mysteries Theatre. \nThe length is an analogy to the story of creation and is conceived as an extension of all monumental works of art. Thus\, all the performed actions of the o. m. theatre ever since the early 1960s need to be understood as part realisations of the 6-day play. \nThe Orgies Mysteries Theatre is an artistic undertaking. Besides the visual form\, the music plays a crucial role. The play’s course follows a symphonic concept. The arena for the action is the castle grounds in Prinzendorf\, encompassing all its rooms and spaces as well as the surrounding countryside of Lower Austria’s Weinviertel. \nTicketing information is available at http://www.nitsch-foundation.com/the-6-day-play-2022 \nA booklet of the 6-day play can be downloaded at \nhttps://www.nitsch-foundation.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/6TS_2022_July_30-31_web.pdf URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/hermann-nitsch-160-aktion-das-6-tage-spiel/ LOCATION:Atelier Hermann Nitsch\, Schlossstraße 1\, Prinzendorf\, 2185\, Austria CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/HN_6ts_A1_riden.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20220620T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20220702T190000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20220502T102813Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220502T104654Z UID:7842-1655719200-1656788400@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:CALL International Masterclass Oedipus.

This Independent Film Show 22 edition is enriched with an immersive and educational section by planning the lesson Photographic darkroom works by Telemach Wiesinger (Museo Hermann Nitsch on the 16.06 at 6:30pm) and in collaboration with Centro di Fotografia Indipendente the workshops Phytography by Karel Doing (Vigna San Martino on the 17.06 at 11:00am) and Neither Black nor White: simple tinting and toning in 16mm by Richard Tuohy and Dianna Barrie (Centro di Fotografia Indipendente on the 19.06 at 10:30am). \nThe ‘here-and-now’ of the Independent Film Show testifies the fulfillment of a passion – the investigation of the experimental film\, and the sharing of the resulting observations. Beyond the specific systems and conventions\, this art form is autonomous – each filmmaker employs his/her own creative genius experimenting methods and skills often handcrafted – and grants an unusual perceptive experience: the immersion in the frame’s substance through an encounter between participant and filmmaker\, including the projector machines as irreplaceable tools. The celluloid substrate is not simply the vector of photographic images but a territory of imagination and innovation. \nIndependent Film Show emerges as revealing refuge for cinephiles\, where a love for experimental film and pushing audio-visual experiences are shared and a mutual relationship is established. It is not only watching films and videos\, but it is also inherently a way to talk and then spread the discourses. The certainty of multiple alternative visions resurfaces in these new contexts\, resistant to capitalist consumption and in search of a revisiting of society\, maybe starting to understand diversity as encounter with another organism. \non June Thursday 16 \n«ON N’ENCHAÎNE PAS LES VOLCANS» Films selection by JASMINE CLOTILDE PISAPIA \nIn her essay «On n’enchaîne pas les volcans» (One does not chain down volcanoes)\, poet and essayist Annie Le Brun invokes the Marquis de Sade’s fascination for volcanoes as a crucial philosophical motif. “Never before\,” she tells us\, “had the feeling of catastrophe been so splendidly formulated\, including in its erotic implications\, through this grandiose polarity: between desire and the forces of nature.” Volcanoes do not appear merely as images or ideas. Their forms emerge from the movements of matter and the depths of the imagination. Indeed\, one of Sade’s characters – the famous chemist Almani – paused in admiration before the breast of Etna as it expelled its flames: “I desired to be this famous volcano.” If volcanoes are possessed by burning telluric energy\, they also possess bodies and minds. They provide scabrous explosions\, scatological resonances – their calamity is scandalous. The films in this program explore multiple facets of these terrifying\, sensual eruptions. At times\, the camera captures the spectacular event. At other moments\, images quiver with the tension of anticipation\, devotion\, latency\, silence\, and the risk of annihilation. What are these images’ relationships to the sensible world? What has the reality of contemporary crises robbed from our imaginative potential\, from our capacity to invent distorted perspectives? \nWith the generous collaboration of Emmanuel Lefrant\, André Habib\, Pierre-Luc Vaillancourt and the Institut pour la Coordination et la Propagation des Cinémas Exploratoires/ICPCE \nTHOMAS BARTELS Selected 35mm film works presented by Telemach Wiesinger (screened digitally) \nThomas Bartels is a German artist and film maker. His works often involve vivid mechanics and craft. His 35mm analogue films are created at his own trick table and film laboratory. \nTelemach Wiesinger presents three films by his fellow artist\, including a surprise from their collaboration. \nThomas Bartels combines two commonly separate forms of artistic expression: film and sculpture. Kinetic objects become actors in his films and films are part of his sculptures. Yes\, the objects themselves become cinematic in their constant movements\, with their changes in shadow and light: they are ‘cinematographic sculptures’. The mysterious poetry of its mechanics and the clearly composed structures of light and shadow become a thoroughly self-deprecating image of the passing time\, a reflection of our own memories and possibilities (Anne Mueller von der Haegen). \nTELEMACH WIESINGER and his FILM POEM TOUR live in Italy \nTelemach Wiesinger is a narrator. Film camera and image projectors are his tools. His film works are at once visual poems\, travelogues and anthropological studies. The images of his associative and rhythmically edited sequences\, collected on 16mm film\, create a fascinating kaleidoscope of Europe. \nLocations are to be discovered as only the cinematographic gaze can find them. “Black on white” with virtuoso analogue film tools\, the FILM POEM gives things new life. Positive meets negative\, flowing multiple projections show images in dialogue. Pantomimic improvised little scenes marked by affectionate humour awaken further associations. \nWith his equipment consisting of different projectors\, Telemach Wiesinger offers a live performance full of surprises\, characterised by a joy of experimentation. Instead of the anonymous\, always the same reproduction of a picture-sound preserved\, the Cinema Expanded performances create a lively encounter between artist and audience – including words during the reel change. With his FILM POEM TOUR\, Telemach Wiesinger is on the road at international film festivals\, in art museums or galleries and even at special ‘outdoor’ locations as well as in excellent art house cinemas.

Campo libero alle Illusioni! \non June Friday 17 \nTHE CITY BRIDGES ARE OPEN AGAIN Recent films by MASHA GODOVANNAYA \nIn Masha Godovannaya’s experimental films\, intimacy is associated with an activist fervour\, while a well-targeted irony at the level of editing and gesture nevertheless affords space to an uncompromising empathy with the small and vulnerable. Masha’s overwhelmingly personal view highlights the structural and political place of sensuous imagery and reveals the absurdity and machismo in the self-representation of political ideologies. Her feminist\, queer and decolonial methodology is not just an idea that permeates the filmmaker’s work\, but a method that forms the basis for editing heterogeneous materials\, from film fragments and found video footage to her own material and the films of other filmmakers that have been reinterpreted through editing. Defragmentation\, layering\, interspersing and analytically separating images as well as collective collaborative laboring with other artists comprises a queer strategy where “decolonising vision means changing the entire order of things”. This approach to cinema is intertwined with the practice of living and is open to collectivity and transformation (Katerina Beloglazova). \nBIOSPHERE BIOSCOPE by KAREL DOING \nThe technological inventions that have enabled cinema go by a number of inventive names such as Fantascope\, Mimoscope\, Omniscope and Tachyscope. These devices are now relegated to museums and private collection including the portable viewing device called Bioscope. The term bioscope has survived as a name for the movie theatre\, a place where life is recreated in front of the eyes of an enchanted audience. This new way of ‘seeing life’ is a very human affair\, intricately related to the growth of cities\, transportation\, and mechanization. In the present\, the infamous era of climate emergency and species extinction\, the term bioscope appears increasingly sinister. Where is actually the aliveness that this venue should present? Is it even possible to present life by means of technology? This programme engages with aspects of life that are rarely presented as meaningful in the context of cinema: plants\, mushrooms\, microbes\, and algae. Beyond these impactful and often overlooked creatures a number of better-known animals also appear on screen as creators of a strange form of music. Ideally\, such a focus beyond the human revitalizes the human participants in this great tragedy as well\, bringing people together to more fully appreciate their inclusion in the biosphere. \non June Saturday 18 \nIT GOES WITHOUT SAYING by GREG POPE \nIt Goes Without Saying is a film/sound/performance piece based on a text/poem of the same title. Images in color and black+white are super-imposed from two 16mm projectors. \n…I always felt it was incredibly exciting and profitable to look back in order to move forward. From the very beginning of my interest in moving image\, I was immersed in the work of early pioneers\, especially Méliès and his contemporaries – who seemed to find a natural link (which I also believe in) between film and alchemy\, the occult\, magic\, hallucination and trickery. I also started to look further into pre-cinematic technologies\, the magic lantern methods of creating movement and also Javanese shadow puppets\, which were integrated into much of my work with Loophole Cinema in the 1990s – and still form a cornerstone of what I create now. In the blind rush into a digital utopia\, there is still an amazing amount of unexplored territory left behind\, and this is the landscape where I like to wander and wonder (Greg Pope). \nHAND AND MACHINE Handmade 16mm films by RICHARD TUOHY and DIANNA BARRIE \nCinema was the first inescapably mechanical art. But in this post-mechanical age\, the traditional apparatus of cinema has all too rapidly been deemed obsolete and primitive. Yet the handing over of industrial machinery to anti-industrial users represents one of the prime creative opportunities for re-appraising and re-interpreting the nature of ourselves as transformed by the age of machines. Post mechanical age\, the humanness of the machine can be made evident. Post mechanical age\, machine craft is the new hand craft. This program presents five recent film works from Australian DIY cine experimentalists Richard Tuohy and Dianna Barrie exploring the primitive apparatus of cinema and the relation between hand and machine. \nProgramme \nThe information on the films\, the videos and the expanded cinema performances are available on www.em-arts.org \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Independent Film Show 22nd edition\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Naples\, 2022 photo Stefania Catapano\n \n \n \n \n \n Karel Doing\, Independent Film Show 22nd edition\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Naples\, 2022 photo Stefania Catapano\n \n \n \n \n \n Independent Film Show 22nd edition\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Naples\, 2022 photo Stefania Catapano URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/independent-film-show-22nd-edition/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Locandina-independent-2022_page-0001.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20220521T210000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20220522T210000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20220516T151616Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220607T085457Z UID:8011-1653166800-1653253200@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Internation Masterclass Oedipus.

BODY OF BLOOD” \nheld by Andrea Cramarossa \nfrom the “EDIPO RE. Una teoria di rappresentazione del dramma 1964”\n(Edizioni Morra\, Naples\, 2001) by Hermann Nitsch \nThe return to the public of the Masterclass OEDIPUS. BLOOD BODY.\, focused on the relationship between sound and body\, held by Andrea Cramarossa\, includes a double opening that will take place at the Hermann Nitsch Museum in Naples on Saturday 21 May (at 9 p.m.) and Sunday 22 May (at 6 p.m.). The work is developed from “EDIPO RE. Una teoria di rappresentazione del dramma 1964” by Hermann Nitsch (Edizioni Morra\, Naples\, 2001). \n“The torment that Oedipus carries from his birth\, not knowing anything about himself\, will lead him towards horror\, towards the inaudible. With a very strong light\, in Nitsch’s Oedipus\, the sense of the sacred is achieved through the sacrifice of all the elements that led the hero into the ecstasy of knowledge\, a disturbing\, troublesome\, lacerating ecstasy.” \nAndrea Cramarossa \nAndrea Cramarossa is a poet\, director and actor who\, after years of intense personal studies in the field of vocal research\, sound and voice applied to singing and speaking\, theorize\, on an experimental basis\, an approach to dramatic art through the use and knowledge of sound. He is the first to take advantage of listening to the sound of the human voice in order to arrive at dramatic art by structuring a real acting model that is inspired by the work on sound by Gisela Rhomert and by Hermann Nitsch’s Theater of Orgies and Mysteries. Cramarossa regularly holds workshops on voice and acting in Italy and abroad. He receives numerous awards in the artistic field including: “Young Oscar – European Personality” and the “Aligi D’Oro” Prize for Dramatic Art. With his artistic work “L’URLO” (The Scream) he received the first prize in 2013 at the FAP – Festival of Performing Arts. In 2003 he founded the theater research group Teatro delle Bambole. \nMasterclass is organized by Fondazione Morra – Hermann Nitsch Museum and Teatro delle Bambole in collaboration with Casa del Contemporaneo.\n \nFree entry sending an email to: info@museonitsch.org \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Masterclass Oedipus.

Under the artistic direction of Chiara Pirozzi and Alessandra Troncone\, and in collaboration with Associazione VerginiSanità\, Underneath the Arches is presenting a site-specific work by Jumana Manna\, titled Depositions. \nIn her work\, Jumana Manna explores how power is articulated\, focusing on the body\, land and materiality in relation to colonial legacies and histories of place. Through sculpture\, filmmaking\, and occasional writing\, Manna questions the paradoxes of preservation practices\, particularly within the fields of archaeology\, science and law. Her practice considers the tension between the modernist traditions of categorization and conservation and the unruly potential of ruination as an integral part of life and its regeneration. \nFor the exhibition at the Augusteo del Serino Aqueduct\, Jumana Manna has made a series of small ceramic sculptures to respond to the tradition\, familiar in the Middle East and beyond\, of leaving uneaten / old bread out in public spaces. These sculptures mimic the practice of offering to an unknown receiver\, an act that rids the giver of the sin of uneaten food; or wasted life. This meaning of “offering” is intertwined with the ritual that ancient Mediterranean civilizations had of making votive gifts to the gods – especially to female deities – in the form of clay loaves and buns\, later found as grave goods. Some of these examples are on display at the National Archaeological Museum of Naples and other museums in the Campania region\, such as the Archaeological Park of Paestum and the Archaeological Museum of Eboli. The sculptures created by the artist are part of an installation conceived especially for the site\, which mixes references to archaeology and inspiration coming from the street. \nDepositions will be preceded by the screening of Jumana Manna’s film A Magical Substance Flows Into Me (2016) in the frame of a public event organized in collaboration with Fondazione Morra and hosted by Hermann Nitsch Museum in Naples on Thursday the 3rd of March\, at 6  pm. \nUnderneath the Arches aims to activate a dialogue between archaeology and contemporary art\, and to establish a relationship between local material and immaterial culture and the artistic research of international artists. Its main objective is to promote both existing cultural heritage and new production in contemporary art. In the fascinating space of the ancient Roman aqueduct\, discovered in 2011 and located underneath a historical building called Palazzo Peschici Maresca\, international artists are invited to create temporary and site-specific installations in dialogue with the space itself and the surrounding area. Previous exhibitions include works by Arturo Hernández Alcázar (Mexico City\, 1978)\, Hera Büyüktaşçıyan (Istanbul\, 1984) and Adrian Melis (Havana\, 1985). \nThis project is kindly supported by Fondazione Morra\, and carried out under the Matronage of Madre Museum / Fondazione Donnaregina per le arti contemporanee of Naples\, and under the patronage of the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples. Thanks to MANN – Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli. \nARTIST BIOGRAPHY \nJumana Manna (Princeton\, 1987) is a Palestinian visual artist and filmmaker based in Berlin.

The aqueduct was built in 10 AC and was an extraordinary work of hydraulic engineering at the time. It was more than 100 km long and supplied water to the most important cities in Campania\, such as Neapolis\, Pompeii and Herculaneum. Over the centuries\, its bridge-arches were buried due to the rise of the ground level. They were then used as foundations for new constructions\, as the city expanded beyond the walls of ancient Neapolis\, leading to the rise of the Vergini-Sanità area. The spaces outlined by the old arches\, now underground\, served as wine cellars\, as a bomb shelter during the Second World War\, and as a dump. \nOpened in 2015\, the archaeological site is currently managed by Associazione VerginiSanità. In collaboration with the Arciconfraternita and other cultural associations in the area\, it is working on a whole project for its restoration\, promotion and reception\, titled AquaAugusta. In 2017\, the site was included in EXTRAMANN\, a collaborative project between the MANN Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli and other institutions devoted to promoting cultural heritage. \nINFO \naquaugusta.contemporaryart@gmail.com \nwww.verginisanita.it/aquaugusta URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/underneath-the-arches-jumana-manna-depositions/ LOCATION:Acquedotto Augusteo del Serino\, Via Arena Sanità 5\, Napoli\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/JUMANA-MANNA_INVITATION-CARD_DEF1.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20211217T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20211219T190000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20220113T171253Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220210T101617Z UID:7298-1639767600-1639940400@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Open Systems DESCRIPTION:17th december 2021\nSTART 7:00 p.m.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Naples\n \nCurated by Ambra Viviani\, David Richter\, Jacob Ott and Lukas Treiber \nw/ Samara Behringer\, bod [包家巷]\, Andrea Bolognino\, Leonardo Bürgi\, Federico del Vecchio\, Antonio della Corte\, Giorgia Garzilli\, Boris Kurdi\, Angela Melito\, Effe Minelli\, Raffaela Naldi Rossano\, Michael Rey Von\, Isabel Schulte\, Anton Steenbock\, Gabriel Stöckli & more. \nHow can self-referential closure create openness? It is not a matter of adaptation\, nor is it a matter of metabolism. It is a peculiar constraint on autonomy arising from the fact that the system would simply cease to exist in any\, even the most favorable environment\, if it did not equip the momentary elements that compose it with the capacity for connection\, that is\, with meaning\, and thus reproduce them. Different structures may exist to accomplish this\, but only ones that can withstand the radical trend toward immediate (and not merely gradual\, entropic) dissolution of the elements. The point of departure must be the difference between system and environment. System are oriented by their environment not just occasionally and adaptively\, but structurally\, and they cannot exist without an environment. They constitute and maintain themselves by creating and maintaining a difference from their environment\, and they use their boundaries (contorni) to regulate this difference\, Without difference from an environment\, there would not even be self-reference\, because difference is the functional premise of self-referential operations. In this sense boundary maintenance is system maintenance. But boundaries do not mark a break in connections\, as one cannot state that internal interdependencies are greater than system/environment interdependencies. The concept of boundaries means\, however\, that processes which cross them have different conditions for their continuance after they cross the contorno. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Installation view.

Dea Adventus DESCRIPTION:13th december 2021 – 31st january 2022\nOPENING 11th december 5.00 p.m.\nFondazione Morra Biblioteca per le Arti Contemporanee\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Naples\n \nCurated by Loredana Troise and Raffaella Morra \nBright\, sharp and soft; these words aptly describe Libero De Cunzo’s new solo exhibition\, DEA ADVENTUS\, curated by Raffaella Morra and Loredana Troise at the Fondazione Morra Biblioteca per le Arti Contemporanee (the Hermann Nitsch Museum Library) from 13th December 2021 to 31st January 2022. It denotes an interval amid the earthquake that is the world. Armed with his iPhone\, Libero De Cunzo directs his gaze towards\, and distils the syllables of a dialectic that spans the themes of recovery\, division\, and rediscovery – penetrating the geological folds of places and capturing their textual noema as a meditative act and cognitive phenomenon in his most personal mode of perceiving. \nStarting from cuts\, fractions and sections\, De Cunzo looks at the world through a recherche in which the underlying question regards the status of the things that have been recovered and then revealed in the memory: dreamlike rhythms\, wonder\, nostalgia\, and pain are vestiges of experience that are not lost but remain engraved on the heart. Narrated through a dense geology of reflections that have constantly driven the artist to ask questions\, illuminated by his conscience\, these unseen photographs\, divided across three partiture – DEVOTIONS-EMOTIONS-ADMIRATIONS – qualify as a neuralgic/humoral spot on the margin of the retina\, which thus becomes an observatory and a window through which knowledge and the ability to decant “in full Gratitude of the Wonder that is always ready to appear” can enter. An attribute that is both formal and ideological\, grounded in a vision oriented towards dialogue as a rhetorical device. \nThe logical-expressive structure of the narrative\, proceeding in an increasingly vertiginous and only apparently rarefied investigation of reality\, demands a particularly discerning viewer\, ready to take up the challenge of interpretation through a laborious but rewarding hermeneutic circle. In his hallmark style\, in the three visual chapters of DEA ADVENTUS\, Libero De Cunzo expresses himself through writing with light\, projecting his poetic message\, an expression of\, and emotional contact with\, signs and motifs: a remarkable and serendipitous sunset\, the glowing sun\, footprints in the sand\, a hand brushing against fabric\, votive candles – all these are striking encounters alternating between amazement and a rush of gratification\, solutions offered to our distracted memories\, illuminating with their immediacy\, a fleeting spark of reality. Libero De Cunzo’s photographs are explanatory visual items – reflections and vibrations guiding us on an enthralling journey where we are all called upon to ponder with a gaze that can slow down\, accelerate\, pause\, and begin again… \n“As it proceeds\, the gaze becomes an image and expresses the desire to identify with places. A search for an inner vision that seeks to go beyond the meanings of reality\, space\, and time\, recognizing within a time that moves from the subjective to the absolute in the instant in which the photo is taken\, holding the breath. A way of seeing in order to raise our ability to feel”.\nLibero De Cunzo\, A passo di Vigna\, 1998  \nLibero De Cunzo teaches Photographic Art at the Liceo Artistico Boccioni-Palizzi and Environmental and Landscape Photography at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Naples. An integral part of his research project is based on his teaching work\, which has always focused on developing a greater awareness of modes of seeing and knowledge of the language of photography. He has organized numerous initiatives on architecture\, the environment\, and landscape and worked with bodies and institutions such as the Ministry of Culture\, MAXXI\, the Faculty of Architecture in Naples\, the Institut François Grenoble\, and Suor Orsola Benincasa University. He has exhibited in several venues in Italy and abroad\, starting with the Trismegisto exhibition featuring leading contemporary artists curated and staged by Lucio Amelio in 1993. For De Cunzo\, the central role of photography in art as an ethical journey is clearly manifest. He has exhibited monographic works in the following exhibitions. L’Italia nel paesaggio (1999); Le stanze dell’Arte (2002); Living Theatre\, labirinti dell’immaginario (2003); Città architettura edilizia pubblica\, Napoli e il Piano Ina-Casa (2006); il Paesaggio degli Dei e il lavoro degli Uomini (2012)\, La rosa dei 20 (2017)\, RE/GARDER Vibrazioni e corrispondenze (2018)\, Procida/Giardino Segreto (2021).

As I looked at the concept of shame and thought about it\, I began to see concretely that it varied a lot according to daily habits\, professional practices\, city-space\, family\, society\, or physical/scientific/ecological awareness. I started exploring how the feeling of shame that one is trying to get rid of or formed as being unwanted is an individual struggle\, how shame surrounds the person\, how the society turns this feeling into an element of pressure\, how and to what extent the tradition takes place in these experiences\, at what stage the boundaries are noticed\, the problems that emerge when the limits are removed and at the end what was left from the confrontation area. As I opened up about the shame that we suppressed the most and buried deep\, I found in the answers to the three questions I asked for each work: why shame exists\, where it came from\, its source\, how solid but invisible veil it is. \nI asked the mentioned questions as follows: \n– Would you consider sharing something that you feel ashamed of if there’s any?\n– If you had such an experience\, do you still feel shame over it after you’ve shared it?\n– What are your common reactions when you come across something shameful? \nI am continuing this series\, which I started in a residency experience in 2019\, with different portraits accompanied by the same questions\, in Naples\, where I came through the residency program of Fondazione Morra*. I engrave the answers about shame from art professionals with\ndifferent experiences that allow me to connect with the city on copper sheets because of its temporality and conductive material. We can also physically touch these works that have turned into a place installation\, and we can form stronger bonds by talking about our shame. \n*The residency by Huo Rf and Cağrı Taşkın (Odviz collective) at Fondazione Morra in Autumn 2021 is part of the program of cultural\nexchanges Neapolitan Dialogues designed by Vittorio Urbani for Fondazione Morra.\n**With Turkey ONE Association’s kind support in partnership with Fondazione Morra. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View\, HUO RF…person\, action\, situation…\, Museo Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Amedeo Benestante Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View\, HUO RF…person\, action\, situation…\, Museo Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Amedeo Benestante Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View\, HUO RF…person\, action\, situation…\, Museo Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Amedeo Benestante Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View\, HUO RF…person\, action\, situation…\, Museo Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Amedeo Benestante Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View\, HUO RF…person\, action\, situation…\, Museo Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Amedeo Benestante Courtesy Fondazione Morra URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/huo-rfperson-action-situation/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Hide-Huo-RF-...person-action-situation....jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20211110T180000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20211110T180000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20211028T094810Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211102T140318Z UID:6968-1636567200-1636567200@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Presentation of the book ALL BOOM ARTE DESCRIPTION:10th november 2021\nSTART 6.00 p.m.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nEuropean presentation tour of ALL BOOM ARTE. Italian Artist at AlbumArte 2011-2020 \nCurated by Cristina Cobianchi \nSpeakers: Elena Bellantoni\, Fabrizio Cicero\, Cristina Cobianchi\, Adriana Rispoli\nModerator: Vittorio Urbani \nOn Wednesday 10 November 2021\, at the Fondazione Morra\, at the Hermann Nitsch Museum of Naples\, AlbumArte\, independent space for contemporary art in Rome presents the editorial project “ALL BOOM ARTE. Italian artists at AlbumArte 2011 – 2020”\, curated by Cristina Cobianchi (Quodlibet editore\, 2021)\, realized thanks to the support of the Italian Council (VIII edition 2020)\, the program to promote Italian contemporary art in the world by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Italian Ministry of Culture. \nWithin the presentation of the volume\, will be presented two videos of two artists of AlbumArte: “CORPOMORTO” (2020\, 9’50”) by Elena Bellantoni and “Fronte Nazionale Naso Partenopeo” (2020\, 18’48”) by Anna Raimondo. \nThe artists and curators selected in these ten years of activity by AlbumArte\, have managed to build a community and to form a network of intellectual exchanges and opportunities for work\, connection and research and it is precisely on this community of young or emerging artists that the attention of the volume ALL BOOM ARTE is focused\, an aggregative phenomenon still in progress\, which has involved and continues to involve dozens of artists\, including many women artists and curators. \nA part of the volume is dedicated to 18 unpublished conversations between the artists and the curators of AlbumArte: Gianluca Brogna with Grossi Maglioni\, Benedetta Carpi De Resmini with Cosimo Veneziano\, Anna Cestelli Guidi with Iginio De Luca\, Daniela Cotimbo with Sonia Andresano\, Elisa Del Prete with Angelo Bellobono\, Raffaele Gavarro with Sandro Mele\, Silvano Manganaro with Zaelia Bishop\, Margherita Moscardini with Cristina Cobianchi\, Manuela Pacella with Elena Bellantoni\, Claudio Libero Pisano with Delphine Valli\, Adriana Polveroni with Francesco Jodice\, Marta Silvi with Dario Agati and Fabio Giorgi Alberti\, Marco Trulli with Anna Raimondo\, Paola Ugolini with Silvia Giambrone and Romina Bassu\, Vittorio Urbani with Flavio Favelli\, Saverio Verini with Sabrina Casadei and Alessandro Giannì.  \nThe volume\, of 484 pages\, double Italian-English version\, is divided into sections that illustrate the context of AlbumArte’s research from 2011 to 2020: the Italian artists abroad with AlbumArte (Anteprima 2011-2014); AlbumArte | VideoArtForum (2016\, in progress); The performances; the project Donne (non più) anonime – conversation on femicide\, together with the images and texts related to the exhibitions realized with all of them (2011-2020). \nCORPOMORTO (2020\, 9’50’’) \nThe work consists of a video and a large public art installation composed of a 43-metre-long polyurethane foam sign and 8 concrete objects with 20-metre-long lines each. I imagined working on the point of view from the sea by placing my work on the edge of the water visible from above. I decided to work on the concept of the dead body – a word borrowed from the language of the sea – producing floating letters in expanded polystyrene that become anchorage points for the concrete dead bodies thrown to the bottom of the sea in a bay near the Port of Tricase. \nI work by immersion\, with “CORPOMORTO” the immersion also takes place in a literal sense by throwing myself into the sea to construct my action. I am interested in the linguistic aspects of these maritime elements: the word dead-body which highlights with the presence of many dead bodies in our seas\, the word an-courage underlines the action of jumping\, the courage of approaching to reach dry land. \nThe language becomes a “lifesaver”\, a place on which to lean\, all the letters – which I throw into the water through a performative action – are an intense orange colour\, the same as the life jackets used at sea. \nThe dead bodies\, at the bottom of the sea\, bear the same writing as a reflection that emerges on the surface of the water: anchor /still dead body between sky and land courage from the play of words on the very object of “anchorage” a warning of a poetic-political nature emerges. (EB) \nFronte Nazionale Naso Partenopeo (2020\, 18’48’’) \nThe title of this work is inspired by an inscription read fleetingly by the artist on the walls of Naples\, where with irony\, someone had added to the acronym written with spray paint “Fronte Nazionale (National Front a far-right political group)\, the words “Naso Partenopeo” (Neapolitan Nose). The constitution of a utopian party\, the Fronte Nazionale Naso Partenopeo (Napolitan Nose National Front)\, takes shape through the interviews that the artist makes to Neapolitan citizens and activists\, in order to start a choral reflection on the daily micro-actions of social transformation and emancipation. A (non) party\, represented by a (non) flag together with different propaganda materials\, is at the center of a real electoral campaign organized by the artist\, presenting also a mobile electoral banquet\, similar to that of an old street vendor\, which will be used for future actions in the public space. The nose\, an element that defines the physiognomy of a person\, is here ironically used as a parameter of identity\, as a starting point for a series of political and social speculations carried out during the interviews\, with a recurring motto: use your eyes\, use your ears\, have a nose. The video was made on the occasion of the artist’s solo exhibition of the same title at AlbumArte in January 2020. \nThe cultural partners of the project ALL BOOM ARTE.

With a very strong light\, in Nitsch’s Oedipus\, the sense of the sacred is achieved through the sacrifice of all the elements that led the hero into the ecstasy of knowledge\, a disturbing\, troublesome\, lacerating ecstasy.” \nAndrea Cramarossa \nPurposes \n\nGet in touch with your own body through the practice of the ritual.\nGet in touch with your own sound through the practice of the ritual.\nTake possession of the “sense of the sacred” starting from the “sacred everyday”.\nMake your own body sacred.\nMake your own sound sacred.\nMake the place sacred through the practice of sacrifice.\n\nGoals \n\nTo Study the text “King Oedipus” by Hermann Nitsch to reach an immersive ritual practice.\nTo get involved by the myth of Oedipus to consolidate a collective and community narrative practice of the myth itself.\nTo reach a possible “place” where the actor consider the sacredness of his being on stage with the surroundings\nTo Assimilate the sense of the sacred in theatrical practice.\nTo Learn the mechanism of regression (loss of one’s structural bonds – physical and mental prison) to identify the primordial physical impulses (Dionysian process).\nLearn the mechanism of the sublimation of these impulses to make a mystical artistic creation of self-awareness.\n\nWho is the Masterclass for? \nThe Masterclass is aimed at actors and actresses\, dancers\, musicians\, singers\, directors and directors of all ages and of all nationalities (held multilingual); also open to pupils with experience\, even occasional and not in-depth\, but felt and participated in the dramatic art. \nThe relationship with the body provides for the possibility of considering it in its nakedness. \nAt the end of the itinerary\, a double opening of the work to the audience is foreseen. \nAll participants will receive a certificate of participation. \nThe Masterclass is limited to a maximum of 20 participants. \nParticipants can be invited to take part as actors in the “Six Days Festival” scheduled for July 2022 at Prinzendorf Castle in Austria. \nBiographical notes \nAndrea Cramarossa is a poet\, director and actor who\, after years of intense personal studies in the field of vocal research\, sound and voice applied to singing and speaking\, theorize\, on an experimental basis\, an approach to dramatic art through the use and knowledge of sound. \nHe is the first to take advantage of listening to the sound of the human voice in order to arrive at dramatic art by structuring a real acting model that is inspired by the work on sound by Gisela Rhomert and by Hermann Nitsch’s Theater of Orgies and Mysteries. \nCramarossa regularly holds workshops on voice and acting in Italy and abroad. He receives numerous awards in the artistic field including: “Young Oscar – European Personality” and the “Aligi D’Oro” Prize for Dramatic Art. With his artistic work “L’URLO” (The Scream) he received the first prize in 2013 at the FAP – Festival of Performing Arts.

Artists will explore the subject on their own\, in a contemplative and inspiring environment\, equipped with their own studio space inside Museo Hermann Nitsch\, generously granted by Fondazione Morra\, as well as attend 5 experiential workshops introducing “the rabbit hole method™” at the Museo Hermann Nitsch\, among other public spaces and excursions around Naples. \nThe concept and program have been written and directed by the rabbit hole’s founder\, Samina Virani. The method is designed as a dramaturgy\, a labyrinth\, where each artist goes down the rabbit hole\, embarking on its mythological journey to discover a collective blank canvas. In the artistic direction of the program\, Samina Virani explains “the scripted elements of the residency are designed to allow the artists to delve into self-introspection\, a white canvas\, a formlessness where the secret gaze exists. Some could call it ‘remembering’.” \nsaturday october 2 – video screening \nDivergent Senses II part \nAs a puzzle without a clear matrix\, Divergent Senses video screenings are the separate components or hidden qualities of a unification.

It includes the teaching of Hazrat Inayat Khan\, Farid Ud-Din Attar\, Jorge Luis Borges\, Alejandro Jodorowsky\, Lewis Carroll\, among others. The rabbit hole seeks to stimulate new ideas about the self and the other\, and to challenge culturally constructed limits and borders. \nUnder careful advisory from Georgetown University\, and the MIT Senselab\, the program bases its principles on deconstruction\, and the reinvention of rituals and forms. We also work with Teatro de los Sentidos\, based in Barcelona\, an immersive theatre company that creates experiences deconstructing what has become our pre-supposed sensory mapping\, and instead discovering the magical silver thread that presents itself\, if one is open to remembering. \nArtists’ expectations: \nEach artist will be required to develop an answer to “the art of remembering” which will later be presented at Museum Hermann Nitsch. \nEach work will become part of the beginning of an archive that reflects The Rabbit Hole Method™ \nA final event at the end of the residency will invite locals to meet the artists\, introduce the methodology and involve local artistic communities through sensory immersion and play. \nAt the conclusion of the residency: \nEach artist will receive a master class certificate of The Rabbit Hole Method™ \nEach artists’ work will be communicated through the rabbit hole’s global channels. Each artist will establish a place in the rabbit hole collective. \nWho can apply: \nWith only 3 spaces to offer for this residency\, we will select candidates for both their artistic merit\, passion in the subject\, as well as how each contributes to an overall group synergy. \nArtists\, curators\, writers\, composers\, poets\, researchers\, musicians\, performers\, from all backgrounds are invited to the open call. \nTo apply\, send the following to info@fondazionemorra.org \n– statement about the project you wish to work on \n– statement in relation to “the art of remembering” (approx 400 words) \n– a response to the question below (approx 400 words) \n– your bio \n– your website \nDeadline July 20\, 2021 \nThe question: \nPlease read the following poem\, and answer the question \n“What is it that connects us? \nA memory? \nWhat if we stop remembering?” \n  \n \nFounded in New York in 2008\, the rabbit hole collective – comprised of a mischievous group of artists\, storytellers\, and visionaries – numbers 2000+ in 56 countries. \nThe collective seeks to stimulate new ideas about the self and other and to challenge culturally constructed limits and borders. a manifesto\, written by its founders\, bases its principles on deconstruction\, and the reinvention of rituals and forms. \nUnderneath a foundation of festivity and a celebration of disruption\, the rabbit hole has created provocative participatory shows at the chelsea art museum\, a time traveling double decker bus in new york city\, a catamaran in the mediterranean and a 21 day train journey across europe and the middle east\, among others venues. \nPress Release \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Labyrinth of mirrors in The art of remembering\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Imma Di Lillo\n \n \n \n \n \n The art of evoking in The art of remembering\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Imma Di Lillo\n \n \n \n \n \n Alper Akcay\, The Whirling Begins in The art of remembering Residency\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Sabrina Cirillo\n \n \n \n \n \n Body\, Time\, Space\, Access in The art of remembering\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Naples\, 2021 © photo Samina Virani URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/the-art-of-remembering-residenza-dartista/ CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/image0.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20200925T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20220924T000000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20200729T134242Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211014T150516Z UID:4720-1601028000-1663977600@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Hermann Nitsch – Sinfonia Napoli 2020 DESCRIPTION:september 2020 – september 2022\nOPENING 25th SEPTEMBER 10.00 A.M.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Naples \nThe Nitsch Museum Naples gets a makeover for the two-year period of 2020 to 2022 with the project “Sinfonia Napoli 2020”. The opening will take place on the 25th of September\, presenting a new body of work including Action Relicts along with a new collection of paintings and drawings.\nFollowing the Government’s requirements for the containment of Covid-19\, our doors open to public from the morning on\, making it possible to enjoy without assemblage the rearrangement of the museum. Presenting works never seen before\, like Hermann Nitsch’s Action Relicts of 2018\, which were created for the museum’s tenth anniversary and his latest paintings realized in residency in Naples. This constellation of “vital seismographies” exemplifies Nitsch’s work as a persistent striving for the liberation of sensitivity from the discipline of an anaesthetizing civilization\, a practice affirming life through the continuous referencing of the olfactory\, tactile\, and visual correspondences of colour. From the “relicts” which\, despite their name\, testify to a promise of return – resurrection from dissolution – to painting and drawing which for Nitsch celebrate light as a condition for experiencing the world. The reopening of the museum\, was also celebrated by the musical composition “Sinfonia Napoli 2020”\, performed behind closed doors by the Nuova Orchestra Scarlatti\, under the baton of Andrea Cusumano\, (the recording will soon be available online).\n“Sinfonia Napoli 2020” seals the partnership\, dating back to 1974\, between Hermann Nitsch and Giuseppe Morra in the name of the creative force of art and the continuity of a project culminating in joyful celebrations for the twelve years of the Nitsch Museum. For the events the Fondazione Morra is again collaborating with Wine&Thecity Naples’ wine event\, that conjugates the promotion of wine culture and art. There will be a degustation of wines from the historical Company of Agro Pontino Casale del Giglio on the day of the opening starting from 17.00. \n \n  URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/hermann-nitsch-sinfonia-napoli-2020-2/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/hermann-nitsch_resize.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20200702T210000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20200704T210000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201024T102428Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210115T134458Z UID:4332-1593723600-1593896400@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:INDEPENDENT FILM SHOW 20th Edition DESCRIPTION:July 2nd – July 4th 2020 \nSTARTING PROJECTIONS at 9:00 p.m.\nFondazione Morra – Museo Nitsch (Belvedere)\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nCurated by Raffaella Morra\, Emmanuel Lefrant\, Andrea Saggiomo and Botborg. \nIndependent Film Show 20 edition is among the most innovative international reviews of experimental film in Italy\, from 2001 coordinated by Raffaella Morra and organised by E-M ARTS associazione culturale\, in collaboration with Fondazione Morra. \nWe’re longing for emotional shocks\, we do not want to postpone this meeting between film-makers and users\, we want to live intensely these three days of Independent Film Show 20 edition and discover the solutions conceived to unhinge habits with direct and active participation. Without any gender division\, the Independent Film Show is free and does not pursue fashions\, routine\, commercial constraint\, requirement of numbers. These artists are skilled communicators of emotions\, of sensual affections\, of perceptual psychologies and\, through the creation of complex audio-visual strategies\, they devise mental exercises and investigative attitudes\, they intersect memories\, sensations\, synchronizations and synaesthesias\, they guide our understanding towards discovery of unusual cognitive mechanisms. They draw from their experiences\, introspections\, mental abilities and fragments of life; they ask users to reflect divergently\, to interpret these emotions as uncommon interferences\, outside of usual patterns. Since Independent Film Show first edition in 2001\, we learned how to activate these unusual connections\, without follow the intransigence of the categories\, the linearity of the narrations\, the rigidity of the pre-established functions. Independent Film Show’s attendees are used to activate a deep involvement\, which branches out in the mind like Escher’s interconnected geometries\, to sensually understand/interpret\, to be in tune. The creativity and the inventiveness are the common denominators of this film art\, created by simulating the movement of carefully selected images\, not using the habitual and the simplifications of automation. \nThe two programs Exposure to chance and Welcome Happy Coincidences by Raffaella Morra are an incitement to overcome the adversities in order to not succumb\, to seize the positive side in the randomness of life and to be able to see happy coincidences. These works are metaphysical paths that investigate the physicality of materials\, such as the lava sand and stone in Matteo Fraterno’s ΑΠΟΚΑΤΑΣΤΑΣΙ\, the natural phenomena like the wind in the videos Vent by Patrick Bergeron and Flatform’s Nothing can be done against the wind (this year invited to the Cannes Film Festival)\, and the clouds in Transformation by Telemach Wiesinger\, composing mosaics of places and axes of reference in continuous transformation; and even\, sharing fragments of life and human behaviours in Kengné Téguia’s Got ‘Til It’s Gone\, the multi-ethnic memories of alien territories in Giuseppe Boccassini’s Debris\, Julie Murray’s Orchard\, Fern Silva’s Tender Feet\, Malena Szlam’s Morfología de un Sueño\, Colectivo Los Ingrávidos’ Itzcóatl; and once again\, to catch the visual-aural haiku by Mahine Rouhi’s PTKHO\, Hugo Verlinde’s Bételgeuse\, Sandra Davis’ For A Young Filmmaker\, Billy Roisz’s brRRMMMWHEee II\, and the personal and historical memories in Nach Osten Schauen by Deborah Phillips\, and 14 Juillet by Olivier Fouchard\, with his words “…in order to wake up the sleepers and to tell them that the revolution is not only a party…”. \nSight of Sound is Mike Cooper’s program; for the past 50 years Mike Cooper has been a guitarist\, a folk-blues songwriter\, an explorer/experimenter of music genres from improvisation to electronic sound\, an author of essays and a historian of the Pacific music and musicians\, a visual artist and film/video-maker. Initially\, he shot Super 8mm films\, but as the medium became more difficult to buy and to get develop\, he firstly found a small video-camera that produced a two and a half pixel image\, and recently he updated to 10 megapixel Full HD Sanyo camera\, as he says “…small enough to be discrete and make hip-shots with”. Mike Cooper realized some short videos that share a degraded lo-fi quality he likes so much\, “light poems” as he defines them. “…I tend to wander around with my video-camera in my pocket and just shoot stuff with no particular intention and I edited it after into something”. \nLight Cone\, a live collection by Emmanuel Lefrant\, film-maker and director of this film/video propagator\, reflects the diversity of the distribution catalogue\, from 1982 to today\, and accounts the richness of this cinema that existed for more than a century on the edge of commercial circuits. Within there are represented all the great film movements of twentieth century’s avant-garde together up to the contemporary\, counting more than 5500 films\, made from 1900 to today by more than 800 artists and film/video-makers from all over the world. In this program there is Tönendes Abc (Abc In Sound) 1933 by Laszlo Moholy-Nagy\, missing for over 80 years\, and found by BFI curators embedded in a reel of 16mm film that also contained Oskar Fischinger’s Early Experiments In Hand Drawn Sound; and also some films and videos created between 2010-2019: Bea Haut’s Kitchen Beets\, Jérôme Cognet & Karen Luong’s Bruit Blanc\, Soetkin Verstegen’s Freeze Frame\, Kelly Egan’s ATHYRIUM FILIX-FEMINA\, Jürgen Reble’s Das Schöpfwerk\, Jacques Perconte’s Or / Or\, Hawick\, Jeremy Moss’ Camera Sick\, Rajee Samarasinghe’s The Exile/Pituvahalayā\, i Lucie Leszez’s Borgo\, Jerome Hiler’s Words of Mercury. \nSince 2009\, 70FPS is an expanded cinema project by Andrea Saggiomo\, in the context of which he improvised and collaborated with musicians and international artists including Andy Guhl and Seppo Renvall\, Riojim\, Gaelle Rouard\, Cogne et Foutre\, Botborg and others. Ancora no! (2018) is a super 8mm film on which he printed by hand (with rayogram technique) insects and leaves together with other film clippings. The film does not present a linear continuity of frames; when projected (at variable speed) these images come to life\, they enter in relation to each other\, they produce noise\, transforming themselves into a film through the gaze. There is no movie before someone projects it and someone else looks at it and listens to it. Transparent Nature (just finished and premiered at IFS20) is described as “…transparent nature of the film material being hard tested by the will to look inside memories\, deep inside the primordial broth from which everything originated and within which\, like it or not\, we are still immersed”. \nBig Screen Brutals by Botborg is a celebration of six ‘brutal’ videos from current artists using a maximalist aesthetic in video art\, digital art\, electronic music\, and noise. Expect glitchy\, psychedelic\, violent\, and quite beautiful combinations sound and vision. These are electro-shamanic short circuits that lead to a new state of surreality: in Der Kleine Kreis’ Clairvoyant the reduced quasi-geometric forms move over the screen in aleatoric patterns and form a synesthetic connection with the sound\, UCNV’s Crashed Universal is made with a precise research of the way of digital media\, in Krushers of False Mechaniks (2D version) by The Superusers a light source becomes incandescent\, change colors regularly before transforming into an intense explosion of wild collapsing patterns\, Guillaume Vallée’s Tzara I is a hybrid film/video created from an obscure 16mm found footage documentary\, inspired by Tristan Tzara’s creative process\, in Anulus Pexie by Norihiro Sekitani & Sgure the colorful the collages are distorted examination of elements of the human body\, Kokofreakbean said that to produce God Knox: “… I used After Effects\, Maya\, Photoshop\, Reaktor\, Premiere\, jenkem\, dwarf callus shavings and elbow grease to conceive and carry out this self-insemination”. \nBotborg is an international audio-visual performance group that fuses and rewires raw electronic signals to create intensely visceral experiences of sound-color synaesthesia. Using a complex array of custom electronics\, Botborg create totally live multi-sensory assaults of interdependent color and rhythm\, pushing the limits of technology to invoke the maximum possible stimulation of their audience’s mind and body. Botborg’s performances are essentially practical demonstrations of their ‘meta-instrument’ known as the ‘Photosonicneurokineasthograph’. This is a complex feedback machine incorporating an entangled mix of new and old technologies that are altered and customized to the unique features of every venue. Although the human operators of Botborg are skilled manipulators of the system\, it is equally unpredictable and uncontrollable\, allowing Botborg to look and sound vastly different on every occasion. All demonstrations are completely improvised\, and no source material is used outside the Photosonicneurokineasthograph.\n\n  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Tratto dal corto “Krushers of False Mechaniks” di Botborg\, \n \n \n \n \n \n Detained Angel\n \n \n \n \n \n Tratto dal corto “Got ‘Til It’s Gone”di Kengné Téguia\, Independent Film Show 20th edition\, 2020 \nMuseo Nitsch\, Napoli\n \n \n \n \n \n Tratto dal corto “ΑΠΟΚΑΤΑΣΤΑΣΙ”\, Independent Film Show 20th edition\, 2020 \nMuseo Nitsch\, Napoli URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/independent-film-show-20th-edition/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/flex2013-03.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20200215T120000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20200314T140000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20200729T145843Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210115T135644Z UID:4336-1581768000-1584194400@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Matteo Fraterno - Esperienze / L’infinito intrattenimento DESCRIPTION:February 15th – March 14th 2020\nOPENING FEBRUARY 15th\, 12:00 a.m.\nFondazione Morra – Biblioteca per le Arti Contemporanee\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Naples \nCurated by Loredana Troise and Pasquale Persico \nHow to dream inside a library? It is the question that echoes in the Biblioteca per le Arti Contemporanee of Fondazione Morra\, in the occasion of Esperienze / L’infinito intrattenimento\, by Matteo Fraterno. A path that reveals all the characteristics of a meticulous journey of contemporary archaeology\, where a whole series of objects and “installations“ taken from the experience of the artist and humanaelitterae\, seem to revive under the light of subtle visual poems. Every single object draws an ontological scenario\, whose evocative force is a narrative device that crosses the dense plots of travel literature. Esperienze / L’infinito intrattenimento is also the topographic indication of a specific place already explored by the artist – the archaeological site of Oropos\, where pilgrims stayed for the night in a state of mythical purifying incubation -\, which is now the ideal reference of a new adventure for knowledge\, stimulating model to transmit and propose again. Matteo Fraterno\, during his one-month residency in the library of the Fondazione Morra\, will give a new meaning to the time of reading\, searching in the past\, to trace an intellectual process increasingly open to the research\, to the excavation\, to the deepening\, to the reading and whispered\, declaimed\, participated rereading. Among the materials exhibited\, the symbols of an infinite mnestic cartography: a bedroll of sheepskin on which “to dream better”; the books Il bibliotecario di Leibniz by Sergio Givoneand L’Entretien infini by Maurice Blanchot\, from which takes the title this experience; some photos of the artist’s journeys; a green flowerpot that traces a symbolic continuity with the first experience of collaboration with Giuseppe Morra at Vigna San Martino in 1995; a yellow armchair that the artist refers chromatically to the book Non-functional thoughts (Ed.Morra) by Cesare Pietroiusti. Visions and devices that encourage the audience to a receptive look in an immersive space. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View (detail)\, Esperienze/ L’infinito Intrattenimento\, Biblioteca del Museo Nitsch\, Napoli\, \n© Photo Danilo Donzelli\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View (detail)\, Esperienze/ L’infinito Intrattenimento\, Biblioteca del Museo Nitsch\, Napoli\, \n© Photo Danilo Donzelli\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View\, Esperienze/ L’infinito Intrattenimento\, Biblioteca del Museo Nitsch\, Napoli\, \n© Photo Danilo Donzelli\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View (detail)\, Esperienze/ L’infinito Intrattenimento\, Biblioteca del Museo Nitsch\, Napoli\, \n© Photo Danilo Donzelli\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Installation View (detail)\, Esperienze/ L’infinito Intrattenimento\, Biblioteca del Museo Nitsch\, Napoli\, URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/lorem-ipsum-dolor-sit-amet/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/matteo-fraterno-2020.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20200130 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20200131 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201022T132419Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210114T170012Z UID:4341-1580342400-1580428799@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:ECONOMIES OF LIVING Video art from Croatia DESCRIPTION:January 30th 2020\nSTARTING PROJECTIONS at 6:00 p.m.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Naples \nCurated by Adriana Rispoli and Karla Pudar\nThere will be present the artists Marko Markovic and Igor Grubic \nThrough the work of 6 artists\, the screening Economies of Living presents an insight into the production of video art Made in Croatia around the theme of the economy and intrinsically to the medium itself of moving images. The word ecomony – from the Greek oikos / home and nomos / law – is addressed in the six works exhibited in different meanings relating to both the more intimate and collective spheres\, in a micro dimension of the everyday and macro in an urban public scenario. \nFrom a cinematographic approach to graphic animation passing through performative documentation to animation\, Ecomonies of Living returns the energy of visual experiments of an extremely prolific artistic area of ​​Eastern Europe. \nEconomies of Living\, curated by Adriana Rispoli and Karla Pudar\, is the second collaboration of the Morra Foundation of Naples with the Domino Project in Zagreb after Smashing the Myth in 2018 and is supported by the City of Zagreb. \n  \nPROGRAM\nMilijana Babić\nWorking day\nVideo documentation of perfromance\, 2011 \nThe action Working Day problematises the situation in which most freelance artist in Croatia find themselves in when it comes to bare existence\, and questions the status of freelance artists in our society.The project title ironically highlights insufficiency of our profession\, within which survival is not possible\, due to the fact that our work is hardly paid for and contemporary art market does not exist. In other words\, work and payment do not come in the same package.With a symbolical act of digging through garbage containers\, in search for refundable litter\, wearing a shirt with the logo of the Croatian Freelance Artists Association\, this work aims to add freelance artists onto the growing list of the socially endangered – next to homeless\, pensioners\, unemployed… \nMilijana Babić  is an artist from Rijeka\, Croatia\, working with installations\, performances and artistic actions. She holds a BA in fine arts from the Durban Institute of Technology\, Republic of South Africa\, and an MA from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design\, Ljubljana\, Slovenia. She is a long-term collaborator of the City of Women festival in Ljubljana. Between 2007-2014 she worked as an associate at the Academy of Applied Arts in Rijeka. She is a member of the artists association Delta 5 in Rijeka. Her work has been exhibited internationally.\n  \nDrako Fritz\nZagreb Confidential – Imaginary Futures\nExperimental film\, 13′ 30”\, 2015 \nThe video explores visions of the future depicted through urban development. In its essence\, it can be regarded as a form of a time structure and as such it questions not only the vision of future on a realistic example of New Zagreb but it also questions the structure of film as such. \nDarko Fritz is an artist\, independent curator\, researcher and graphic designer. He was born in 1966\, in Croatia\, and currently he lives and works in Amsterdam\, Zagreb and Korčula. His work fills the gap between contemporary art practices and media art culture. He is founder and programmer of the Grey Area – space of contemporary and media art since 2006.\n  \nIgor Grubić\nHow Steel Was Tempered\n2D animation\, 12’40”\, DCP\, 2018 \nA father takes his son to an abandoned factory where he once worked. The building has long been reduced to a crumbling symbol of the new system. Nonetheless\, the space will briefly be brought to life by recorded scenes of workers solidarity\, inspiring a small gesture of defiance. That symbolic act will turn into a moment of catharsis and re-establish the relationship between the father and son. The film was presented in the Croatian Pavillion at Venice Biennale 2018. \nIgor Grubić has been active as an multimedia artist in Zagreb since the early ’90s\, making photography\, video\, and site-specific actions. His interventions into public space\, along with video works explore past and present political situations while cutting through the fabric of reality. Grubić has participated in numerous major international exhibitions including\, Manifesta 4 (Frankfurt\, 2002); Manifesta 9 (Genk\, 2012); MuMOK (Vienna\, 2009); 11. Istanbul Biennial (2009); 4. Fotofestival Mannheim Ludwigshafen\, Heidelberg (2011); East Side Stories\, Palais de Tokyo (Paris\, 2012); Gwangju Biennale (2014); Zero Tolerance\, MOMA PS1 (New York 2014); Degrees of Freedom\, MAMbo (Bologna\, 2015); Heavenly creatures\, MG+MSUM (Ljubljana\, 2018); The Value of Freedom\, Belvedere 21 (Vienna\, 2018). He represented Croatia at the 58th Venice Biennale.\n  \nAna Hušman\nLunch\nVideo kolor PAL\, 4:3\, 16mm transferred to BETA\, 16’40’’\, 2008 \nThe rules of correct behaviour found in books of etiquette present themselves as aiding communiction and helping people understand each other. They also claim to help us engage socially with greater ease and self confidence. These rules are learnt from birth which is the only way for us to completely internalise them. Their model is found in western civilisations\, and compliance with them makes it easy to discern who is civilised and who is not. the film deals with customs of eating and drinking – specifically with the lunch situation\, as communal eating is the central site of showing others our breading and finesse. \nAna Hušman’s practice disassembles the structures and textures of cinematic elements through film\, installation\, books\, sound\, image and text. Hušman experiments with the possibilities of animation\, documentary and fictional cinematic methods\, and the possibilities of the recorded voice and its articulation. Her working process questions and plays with the positions of the amateur and the professional subject of performativity\, the medium itself\, and the structures that dictate and produce patterns of behavior. She is a lecturer at the Department of Animation and New Media at the Academy of Fine Art in Zagreb\, cofounder of the documentary film organization RESTART where she has been holding film education programs for children and young people for many years.\n  \nMarko Marković\nSharpening\nVideo documentation of perfromance\, 12′ 04”\, 2012 \nSharpening performance took place on 44 Wall Street on the first police block barricade of Security zone at Financial district\, NYC. In performance artist is sharpening two knifes one against the other giving the clear massage. In this performance artist has brought the weapons in security zone at the Wall street. The act of creating such a performance counter defensive field confronting to “their” defensive field (barricades)\, mounted to protect the security zone. This type of protection from a higher ones creates a general threat and restricts freedom of speech\, movement and action. Two months after the performance in August of the same year at Time Square in New York City police shoot and kill a man with 12 bullets. A man was killed because he possessed a weapon\, a knife. \nMarko Markovic was born in 1983 in Osijek\, Croatia\, lives in Vienna. He graduated painting at Art Academy in Split in 2007 in the class of prof. Gorki Žuvela. He also does researches in different media: video\, installation\, ambient\, performance and happening. In these works he often animates and includes audience and/or other participants as the expression medium. He is the founder and member of a flexible formation Adistia\, a group of people that operates in performance activities\, as an art group\, art community\, or organization. He participated in numerous exhibitions\, workshops and festivals in Croatia and abroad.\n  \nRenata Poljak\nPorvenir\nOne channel video installation\, 12′\, 16:9\, 2019 \nDreaming of better lands\, from generation to generation\, because of poverty\, hunger and wars\, we voyage across the seas. Geography is destiny. Do our bodies retain the memories of our grandfathers; are memories of running away in search of better lands imprinted on our bodies? Porvenir means Future in Spanish. Porvenir is the only town in Tierra del Fuego\, at the bottom of the world\, founded by Croatian immigrants at the beginning of the 20th century. \nRenata Poljak is a visual artist coming from Split\, Croatia\, currently living in Paris. Her body of work is composed of different medias: photos\, neon\, installation\, videos and film. Her practice explores the politic upheaval and violence that the Balkan region has undergone since the early 1990s\, and the ramifications of those changes in the lives of émigrés throughout Western Europe. In 2002 she was on ArtsLink award as visiting artist in San Francisco Art Institute\, in Museum Quartier\, Vienna in 2004 and in 2008 she has been selected for Art In General residency program in New York and in ArtOmi for 2010. Renata’s work has been exhibited wildly\, on solo or group shows\, biennales and film festivals. She received several awards among witch the Golden Black Box Award for Best Short Film at the Black Box Festival in Berlin 2006 and in the spring of 2010 a selection of her videos and film work were exhibited in Centre Georges Pompidou\, Paris.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Dalla proiezione: How Steel was Tempered\, Igor Grubic\, Economies of Living\, Museo Nitsch Napoli\, 2020 Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Dalla proiezione: PORVENIR\, Renata Poljak\, Economies of Living\, Museo Nitsch Napoli\, 2020\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Dalla proiezione: Lunch\, Ana Husman\, Economies of Living\, Museo Nitsch Napoli\, 2020\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Dalla proiezione: How Steel was Tempered\, Igor Grubic\, Economies of Living\, Museo Nitsch Napoli\, 2020\nCourtesy Fondazione Morra URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/economies-of-living-video-art-from-croatia/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Sharpening-Invitation.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20190627T210000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20190629T210000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201022T152825Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210115T140145Z UID:4354-1561669200-1561842000@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:INDEPENDENT FILM SHOW 19th Edition DESCRIPTION:June 27th – June 29th 2019\nSTARTING PROJECTIONS at 9:30 p.m.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch (Belvedere)\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d Napoli \nCurated by Raffaella Morra and Sabina Maselli \nIndependent Film Show 19 edition\, among the most innovative international reviews of experimental film in Italy\, from 2001 coordinated by Raffaella Morra and organised by E-M ARTS associazione culturale in collaboration with Fondazione Morra\, is built around the researches of filmmakers totally free to experiment the ways and the approaches generating complex images that share an accentuated propensity to creative genius. This intense search mode is the result of ingenious choices to instil an alternative way of seeing and to evaluate the intricate codes flowing on the screen and into the mind. The experimental film causes powerful synaesthesia in our sensory receptors and for this reason the Independent Film Show events are admired\, perceived\, and can envelope us… until meditation. The immersive possibility to establish direct contact with the independent filmmaking ideas is the intention of Independent Film Show: unusual perceptual experiences await the audience that for three days proceed for unexplored territories\, enjoying the old and new photochemical practices and the digital media innovations.\nAs the stars show themselves when the sun is set\, so the powerful forces of these films are revealed when the body and the mind cross the threshold of the slightly perceptible\, honing the ways of observation and going beyond the limits of the visible.\nDo not look away\, what we are looking at now will be different next time\, we are going to witness something really alive and spontaneous… \nOn Thursday June 27th in the selection Intuitive imagination curated by Raffaella Morra a sequence of different solicitations leads the observation toward an innovative movement to vary and broaden the world’s views\, slipping out of the stable sensory boundaries: Insolite by Maya Schweizer mingle together a series of images from today and 1944’s last eruption of Mount Vesuvius; in Prádelna (Wash house) by Alexandra Moralesová the material shot during the rehearsals of the play Marat/Sade is used as a pretext to examine the mechanism of theatre and its power of purification; Georgy Bagdasarov’s Fran explores the decomposing 16mm film as the protagonist dissolves in the landscape; Stefano Canapa’s Kairos is a poetic dance film set against a Mediterranean background where film\, nature and body are brought together to produce an interconnected material choreography; in Osmosis by Bradley Eros the elemental\, the ephemeral & the constructed compose a performance for triple images; in this three-screen projection From end to end by Peter Conrad Beyer the structural opposition of images from nature and from civilization engenders a process of comparison and visual unification in an apocalyptic atmosphere inclining towards the chaotic.\nSome exercises of different nature for two slide projectors\, two shutters\, two performers\, optical toys\, one voice and one audience: the performance There must be some way out of here by Alexandra Moralesová and Georgy Bagdasarov is inspired by the reflections of human knowledge on vision and moving image. Human vision is located in one’s physical body\, but it leads the human out of itself and connects to the outside world. The moving image is a construct that requires to be deconstructed and rebuilt again\, if only for the pleasure it provides. \nOn Friday June 28th the program Film is ritual curated by Sabina Maselli samples a small selection of 16mm films from Australian filmmakers working in experimental form and using hand processed techniques\, all members of the Melbourne based film lab Artist Film Workshop. Film is ritual suggests the very hands on approach to making films (layering\, masking\, repetition) seeps into the film itself\, leaving a personal and physical mark on each of them. An alchemical solution – a merging of chemicals and spirit.\n‘satellite’by Sabina Maselli with live sound by Erkki Veltheim is a ritual in film that performs the fracturing of the self and its dispersal into the surrounds by the act of spinning and altering time. This ritual is concerned with the nature of time\, memory and magic. Through the act of repetition (both the camera and the body)\, an animist transformation can occur – a merging of the female and celestial body. The double film is accompanied by a live soundtrack by Erkki Veltheim composed of a single fragment of a woman’s voice that is replicated and modulated\, circling around the image at different speeds.\nAs Italian premier Nervous Magic Lantern: Chaos is Order Misunderstood by Ken and Flo Jacobs with live audio performance by Michael J. Schumacher. Nervous Magic Lantern is a projection device invented by Ken Jacobs in 2000\, and with assistance of his wife Flo (Florence) they has given public performances since then: with simple mechanics that could be invented centuries before film it creates an illusion of deep even more pronounced when seen with a single eye. \nOn Saturday June 29th in the program Mystical spaces curated by Raffaella Morra the films operate as machines to alter the space-time and transfer the viewer into an experience full of fantastic dynamics; these journeys are unearthly accesses to mystical places emanating an animistic essence of cosmos\, as a spiritual power that can influence our well-being: in Alétheia by Enrico Mandirola the Colombian mountainpeaks designed a new fragmented horizon; in The Quilpo dreams Waterflows Pablo Mazzolo filmed the sacred Sanctuary of the Comechingón in Argentina; TÅKE by Inger Lise Hansen observes the spectacle of fog through several different film and video formats; HERMAN(N) is about a street in Berlin with a reputation of a dangerous place\, yet Deborah S. Phillips sees it as an inviting place through the golden light of late summer; Not (a) part by Vicky Smith is conceived in relation to the rapid decline of bees through a high recurrence to handmade film; Bradley Eros and Jeanne Liotta’s Dervish Machine is the site to experience impermanence\, …and to revel in the unfixed image.\nIn Your Eyes Are Spectral Machines Luis Macías materializes the simple illusion of moving image by handling objects in front of the projectors’ light\, a cosmic creation in the center of the screen haloed by undulations of pulsating light. The movement produced by Macías is an alchemic combination of multiple planes of light\, retouched tweaked through focus and fades of 16mm projectors and slide-projectors\, creating fleeting forms of shifting visions.

Our race is the only possible race of the human race to which the faculty of free will has been given. Let’s go\, quickly\, towards the dictatorship of this verb. \nThe idea of ​​staging “Pferd Person” starts from the awareness of his loneliness and the state of outcast. Two actors on stage\, a man and a woman\, will face the panic that springs from the vision of emptiness. Nothingness reigns in the material and immaterial substance that builds society and the two want to take their place in the Olympus of power\, in the immanent which is the mirror of a totalizing non-difference in the perception of things. \nTeatro delle Bambole in Naples with the epilogue of the five-year project “The language of insects” (2012-2017). \nTeatro delle Bambole inspired to work on the sound of Gisela Rhomert (Method of Lichtenberger® Institut für angewandte Stimmphysiologie) and the Orgien-Mysterien-Theater of the Austrian artist Hermann Nitsch\, one of the leaders of Aktionismus Wiener. \nThe founder and creator is the actor and director Andrea Cramarossa that after five years of intense personal studies in particular voice search\, the sound and voice applied to the singing and talked (on the relationship between sound and the body\, voice and person\, music and character)\, theorizes on an experimental approach dramatic art through the use and knowledge of the sound. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Teatro delle Bambole\, Pferd Person\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Napoli 2019 © photo Andrea Cramarossa Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Teatro delle Bambole\, Pferd Person\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Napoli 2019 © photo Andrea Cramarossa Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Teatro delle Bambole\, Pferd Person\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Napoli 2019 © photo Andrea Cramarossa Courtesy Fondazione Morra\n \n \n \n \n \n Teatro delle Bambole\, Pferd Person\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Napoli 2019 URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/teatro-delle-bambole-pferd-person-_-the-irreplaceable-frenzy-of-the-verb-study-on-the-eternity-of-the-body/ CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/LocandinaMorraL.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181218 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181219 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201112T164217Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210115T171724Z UID:4433-1545091200-1545177599@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Mario Costa - L'uomo fuori di sé DESCRIPTION:December 18th 2018\nSTART: 5:30 p.m.\nSala conferenze del Museo Hermann Nitsch\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nA conference starting from a book.\nSpeaking: Mario Costa\, Vincenzo Cuomo\, Maria D’Ambrosio\, Matteo D’Ambrosio e Filippo Fimiani. \n  \nThe Hermann Nitsch Museum will host Mario Costa. L’uomo fuori di sé (The man outside himself)\, a conference with philosopher Mario Costa and experts from different esthetic fields.\nThis event will be an opportunity to discuss the essays presented by Mario Costa to International debates on the aesthetic-anthropological impact of new technologies.\nWith reference to his recent books\, and those dedicated to him\, the author and the experts will reflect on the new theoretical thought created by Costa\, already in the early Eighties of the last century\, focusing on concepts such as “communication aesthetics”\, “technological sublime”\, “communication block”\, “aesthetics of flux” and now\, “technological outsourcing”. \nIn particular\, the event will be centered on these recent books: \nMario Costa\, L’uomo fuori di sé.

With a positive meaning\, Smashing the Myth celebrates destruction as a semantic act for the construction of new realities\, for overcoming limits and categorizations\, and for the breaking down of physical and identity boundaries. Performance as a preferred artistic expression contains the characteristics of dissolution of language and of osmosis between different forms of art and\, on this occasion\, it is presented trough its innumerable methods: from intervention in urban space to the direct involvement of the body\, from symbolic action to audio visual synaesthetics\, finding in the first experiments of video performance in Eastern Europe a sort of generational baptism. Smashing the myth presents a cross-section of Croatian art today somehow iconoclastic and provocative that gives back a strong and combative image of a generation of artists who\, on the one hand proudly affirms their roots\, on the other hand rightfully claims an idea of ​​art free from the dark economy and from the dominance of capital. Constantly questioning the value and the power of art in society\, it is also evident in their artistic research the direct comparison with the history of art in a wide sense: from the Russian utopia of the early twentieth century to the bitter irony on the contemporary art market today\, passing through the breakdown of barriers between art and life. \nARTISTS: Igor Grubić\, Bruno Isaković\, Sanja Iveković\, Siniša Labrović\, Alen Sinkauz – Nenad Sinkauz\, Sandra Sterle. \n  \nPROGRAM \nMUSEO HERMANN NITSCH\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nFrom h. 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. \nIgor Grubić | Smash the Myth\nBruno Isaković | Fade Into\nSanja Iveković | Inter nos\nDalle 19.00 alle 21.00 \nSiniša Labrović | Artist Index \nIgor Grubić: Smash the Myth\nPhoto and banner from the public intervention at Ex Olivetti Factory\nMUSEO HERMANN NITSCH \nWhatever could be the chosen medium or the modality of intervention up to including the personal style of life\, Igor Grubic consistently applies a political vision to his way of living and therefore to make art. Smash the Myth is in some way a tautology with which Grubic declares\, paraphrasing the radical ideology of the Russian poet of the revolution Vladimir Mayakovsky\, that the NON-POLITICAL art does not exist because any artistic expression\, or even a simple thought\, can only be a political gesture and must reflect the responsibility that artist has toward society. The choice to expose yourself to an audience – and to choose to which kind of audience to be exposed\, including that of the mere art market – is itself a political act. The Smash the Myth series consists of micro-interventions in urban spaces where Grubic\, in a temporary and sometimes illegal way\, affixes a banner to iconic places in various cities. Started in the mid-90s with the project Micro-museum of Revolutionary Heritage\, the series has touched several cities such as Berlin at the Soviet War Memorial in Treptower Park and Dresden in front of the Academy of Fine Arts\, and now arrives in Naples in the mythical Olivetti factory. Founded in 1955 on a project by the rationalist architect Luigi Cosenza\, the former Olivetti Factory is a symbol of the humanistic vision of an enlightened industrialist whose business mission was directly linked to the well-being of its workers. With a socialist setting ante litteram for Italy\, Adriano Olivetti\, in Pozzuoli as in the other Italian locations of his factories\, had wanted for his employees a place in symbiosis with nature and equipped with all the necessary services deeply convinced that work is a social redemption tool. Within this small eden for workers\, Grubic has chosen to affix his “motto” on what had once been the library place par excellence for the enrichment of the spirit. \nIgor Grubić (Zagreb Croatia 1969) is known for his political and moral activism and for his operations in public spaces\, often born in a mysterious atmosphere of anonymity\, which aim to generate new meanings such as the 366 series Liberation Rituals (2008) or Black Peristyle (1998). Active since the 90s his work includes performance\, photography and video and since 2000 he starts working as a film producer.\nHis works have been exhibited in numerous exhibitions and international institutions including Manifesta 4 (Frankfurt); Tirana Biennial 2; 11.Istanbul Biennial; 4.Fotofestival (Mannheim); Manifesta 9 (Genk); Gwangju Biennale 20th Anniversary Special Project; ‘East Side Stories’ Palais de Tokyo (Paris); Thessaloniki biennale 5- Ident-alter-ity; ‘The Value of Freedom’\, Belvedere 21 (Vienna); ‘Zero Tolerance’\, Moma PS1 (NY). In Italy\, among others\, he participated in Present Future at Artissima in 2001 and at Il Piedistallo vuoto and Gradi di Libertà exhibitions respectively at the Museo Civico Archeologico and at Mambo in Bologna in 2014 and 2015. He took part at the video program Q.I. VEDO at Quartiere Intelligente in 2016 with the film Monument.\nHe will represent Croatia at the next 58th Venice Biennale.\nBruno Isaković: Fade Into\nMUSEO HERMANN NITSCH \nFade Into is a durational performance series responding to permanent collections and exhibitions in museums and galleries. Artist selects an artwork and through durational performance builds a live installation around its specific political and artistic relevance. During five hours of this performance a whole range of readings of the chosen artwork and their connotations become a canvas on which the performer projects his voice and body. The building elements of this intervention are charged with textual references questioning the specific artwork’s medium\, context\, content and history and its different particularities. By reading these textual references aloud to the museum visitors\, artist fills the space with intangible perspectives as well as corporeal aspects which are attached to the selected work of art and its context. Physical contours and boundaries between corporeal and intangible are gradually blurred as the performer’s body fades into a color that dominates the space. This happens through slow\, meticulous and repetitive movements with which the artists paints his whole body over a period of a couple of hours before the movements subside and we are left with the sculptural stillness of the performer. Embodiment of all hinted and expressed meanings emerges as a live installationthat offers a paradigm shift to museum visitors in relation to a particular space and work in the musem.\nThis work has been performed in Reina Sofia in Madrid\, Museum of Modern Art Bologna\, Zagreb Contemporary Art Museum and Glucksmann Gallery in Dublin always using a different artwork as the focal point. \nBruno Isaković is a Zagreb based performer and choreographer living. He graduated with a degree in contemporary dance from Amsterdam School of the Arts in 2009. From 2011 to 2015 he was a member of Contemporary Dance Studio\, the oldest Croatian contemporary dance company. He is also the Founder and Artistic director of Sounded Bodies Festival in Zagreb dedicated to exploration of relationships between voice and movement\, sound and body. Isaković regularly teaches workshops and dance classes. (Bilgi University of Performing Arts – Istanbul\, Contemporary dance department at The Academy of Dramatic Art – Zagreb\, TSEKH Summer School – Moscow\, etc.) He has received various scholarships\, as well as Jury Award and Best Solo Dance at Solo Dance International Festival in Budapest and Croatian national award 2016 as a best choreographer for his show Denuded.\n  \nSanja Iveković: Inter nos (1978)\nVideo\, 60 minutes\, black and white\, sound\nCourtesy MSU\, Zagreb\nMUSEO HERMANN NITSCH \nOne of the early works of Sanja Iveković\, and the first one in which she included video-camera recording of the performans\, called Inter nos emphasizes the technically established interaction with audience. This participative work consists of two rooms connected by two closed TV circuits without an audio link and an entrance space where a direct transmission takes place for the audience. “During the entire action I am shut in a room\, thus being invisible to the audience. Visitors enter the second room one at a time. A private dialogue develops between us\, as I interfere with the visitor’s screen image\, which provokes his or her individual reaction. Concurrently\, the audience receives only the participant’s image.” (Sanja Iveković)\nThis form of relationship between artist and audience\, angle of viewing as well as an interaction between object and observer played great roll in her works. \nSanja Iveković (b. 1949\, Zagreb) has been reworking the construction of media images to reveal and subvert the constellations of power they conceal and use them for her own purposes since her first appearance in the context of “New Art Practice” in Yugoslavia in the early 1970s. Iveković is primarily concerned with the exploration of images relating to women. The artist has extended her feminist image and media critique to an analysis of the institutional conditions and rituals of the art world. Her performances from this period actively involve the audience as a real presence and absence. Iveković was among the first artists in Yugoslavia to combine performance and video art. In the 1990s her work became more politically orientated and she also initiated important projects as a political activist. Iveković has shown in numerous international exhibitions\, among them the three most recent Documentas in Kassel\, Tate London and MOMA.\n  \nSiniša Labrović: Artist Index\nMUSEO HERMANN NITSCH \nThis performance comes at the right moment as it leans upon the ongoing discussion about the systems of art market(ing)\, or if we allow ourselves a bit of spice\, the myths of art markets. This discussionhas been persistently present for a long time but only since recently has it been possible for work to be auctioned\, shredded to everyone’s surprise and immediately revalued to be worth double. That is the surprising\, even creative\, element of the arts market – we knew it had the power to absorb\, but no one expected this level of suction strength. Therefore\, it seems that to have a gallerist\, to be offered\, namely to have one’s work offered at one of the important art fairs is a condition for survival and success in the contemporary art scene. The performance celebrates those who have made it\, those who have a name\, those who are indexed. Simultaneously\, this performance weeps for those who stayed behind and who form the sea of no-names. Sorrow for the ones left behind mixes well with grains of envy of the others. \nSiniša Labrović is multimedia artist from Sinj\, a small town in Croatia. He has been creating work since 2000 and his emergence in Croatian arts landscape has been explosive\, to say the least. His work has been engaging the imagination of the audience\, media andt hewhole artisticcommunity in Croatia since the very start. Siniša’s work can be described as political\, raw\, direct\, humorous and brilliant in its simplicity – but most of all it has always been daring. His performances dealt with and tackled pedophilia\, corruption\, abuse of political power or mythologie of nationalism\, as well as genuinly philosophical questions of purpose\, (in)significance of human experiences or social responsability. But whatever the subject of the work may have been\, it was made stronger and appealing by anunpretentious commons se that communicated and resonated with the public even beyond what contemporary performance art formats often manage to do. In 2005 he attracted the attention of world media (Reuters\, BBC\, Ansa\, New York Post\, The Guardian\, The New York Times\, NBC\, ABC) with his work „Flock.org“ in which sheep were the actual contestants in a reality show. His works are in the collections of Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb\, Fine Arts Gallery Split\, Museum of Modern Art Dubrovnik and numerous private collections. In 2009 he exhibited at the 11th Istanbul Biennial and in 2012 he represented Croatia on 13th VeniceArchitectureBiennale\, titled CommonGround\, together with Pula Group\, Hrvoslava Brkušić\, Igor Bezinović and Boris Cvjetanović.\n  \nSCALA FILANGIERI | QUARTIERE INTELLIGENTE\nScala Montesanto 3\, Napoli\nFrom h. 9:15 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. \nSandra Sterle | Visiting Reality \nThe project Visiting Reality first started in Belgrade in 2012. It continued in Paris in the same year. The concept starts from the idea that the national identity is the myth that constructs the contemporary world to such an extent that people actually start to believe that that’s what they are. We all are aware that history is more complex and the pure fact that we identify with certain people just because of borders that surround the piece of land can also be taken as a simplifying joke. The fact is that during her life as an artist she expected to expand and envision the complexity of the self and the contemporary world. Instead\, the artist happens to be surrounded by a concept of decay from within the social and political environment that she lives in. This performance in a way compares the national mythology of two countries by using national symbols constructed from the cheap touristic souvenirs\, that often even end up being quite similar. By smashing them on stage and creating sort of dust from these objects\, forming an abstract reality of sorts\, one is finally able to start “reading” beyond the “material” as it comes closer to complexity that our lives are made of. The performance of course utilizes the idea of destruction as a manner to create\, instead of the more traditional principle of construction\, putting these two forces under examination. \nSandra Sterle is an artist from Split who works with film\, installation\, interventions\, photographyand performance. She is professor of performance art and video at the Arts Academy in Split\, Croatia. She graduated from the Sculpture Department of the Academy of Visual Art in Zagreb and continuedher studies at Department of Film and Video at Kunstakademie inDusseldorf\, 1995-96 ( with prof. Nan Hoover). Her works were exhibited and performed in numerous international art institutions like: Museum of Contemporary Art\, Zagreb; Kunsthalle Fridericanum\, Kassel; Museum Ludwig\, Aachen; Museum voorModerne Kunst\,Arnhem; Gate Foundation\, Amsterdam; W139 Gallery\, Amsterdam;Museo de Arte& Disegno Contemporaneo\, Costa Rica; MuseoNational Centro de Arte Reina Sofia\, Madrid; Instytut SztukiWyspa\,Gdansk; Berlin Academy\, Berlin; Museet for Samtidskunst\, Roskilde;Fundacio Antoni Tapies\, Barcelona; Location 1 Gallery New York;Artist Space\, New York; etc. Her works are part of several public archives and collections of MMSU\, Rijeka\, Art Gallery\, Split and private collections.\n  \nQUARTIERE INTELLIGENTE\nScala Montesanto 3\, Napoli\nFrom h.9:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. \nAlen Sinkauz e Nenad Sinkauz\nVideo by Ivan Marusic Klif\nAudio-visual performance \nThe performing style of Alen and Nenad Sinkauz draws the audience immediately into their skilled improvisational technique that is a well developed process of instantly creating unexpected compositions. The sound and visual elements of their concerts are further defined by the very architecture and acoustic characteristics of the space in which they play as these condition the outcome of each performance. Due to a complex processing of main sources of sound like guitars\, bass\, different objects\, microphones and pick-ups\, in addition to “field recording”\, the amplifier system as well as the resonance quality of the space both become a significant part of the complete sound image. This performance is a synergy\, in every sense of this word\, between all elements that are brought together not only on stage but everywhere in the space. The music material that is being created by this continuous build up and upgrade of sounds generates the familiarity of industrial\, techno and noise\, but is at the same time wrapped in an abstract atmosphere which over time takes on unassuming and always different forms. This performance plays with our expectations and trust as it allows us to follow the sounds that we may find recognizable but also lets us discover the unexpected on our own before picking us up again and taking us deeper into the very structure of sound. \nAlen Sinkauz and Nenad Sinkauz are originally from Pula in Istria and have graduated and post-graduated studies in musical philology and ethnomusicology in Padova\, Italy. As composers and performers over the last 20 years they took part in various musical\, theatre\, contemporary dance\, multidisciplinary\, radiophonic\, sound art and film projects. Their artistic work\, especially when playing live\, is mostly oriented towards exploring unconventional musical forms\, improvised and creative music.\nThey composed the score for the highly acclaimed feature film Zvizdan/The High Sun directed by Dalibor Matanić (The jury prize “Un certain regard” at Cannes Film Festival\, 2015) and for the Croatian-Norvegian film Goran directed by Nevio Marasović (Golden Arena award for the best soundtrack at Pula Film Festival\, 2017). In the past two years they have been responsible for soundtracks to half a dozen Croatian and international films including composing music for short animated movies “Technement” by BrankoFarac and “Kako se kaliočelik / How steel was tempered” by Igor Grubić.\nIn 2002 Sinkauz brothers founded a band East Rodeo which involves an international group of jazz and rock musicians bringing together avant-rock\, electronic\, noise and improvised music and they released three albums featuring internationally acclaimed musicians such as Marc Ribot\, Greg Cohen and Warren Ellis.

Video imagery shot in real time by smartphones installed onto the building’s roof are superimposed with computer generated renditions of the actual planets\, stars\, constellations and other celestial bodies as well as space stations\, “junk”\, and other known objects in Earth’s orbit. \nThe live video feeds on view during the Museo afternoon hours – from early afternoon daylight to evening darkness – facilitate the experience of our movement on Earth\, especially as shown in relation to other planets and star systems: our location in Napoli rotating at approximately 750 mph on a planet orbiting the sun at 67\,000 mph in a solar system circling the galaxy at 483\,000 mph\, etc. \nAlso on view are selections from two related watercolor and ink on paper series and a series of photograms by the artist. \nThe Bruno Studies watercolors are based on the silhouette of the statue of Giordano Bruno that stands in Rome’s Piazza Campo de’ Fiori\, where in 1600 he was burned at the stake for refusing to revoke what were considered heretical views such as insisting that our sun is just one of many and the universe is infinite\, and often incorporate text of his writings in De l’Infinito\, Universo e Mondi (1584). \nThe Nightly Studies – a watercolor\, gansai and sumi ink on paper series – find Liotta making her own chartings of the observable sky at night from various locations around the globe during her research. The artist’s detailed\, multi-layered use of shades of blue along with her minimal and gestural application of black ink on the page draw visual connections between the human and the cosmic scales: splatters of ink form the Milky Way\, a tiny dot of paint a distant galaxy. \nThe series of photograms Articuli made by hand in the artist’s darkroom are inspired by the imagery and texture of the Copernican diagrams (woodcuts) of the Italian philosopher and former Dominican friar Giordano Bruno. Among his ideas were that the sun is a star\, that other stars have similar solar systems to ours\, and that the universe is infinite. Additional info about Bruno’s articuli: 42 iconographic woodcuts accompanied Giordano Bruno’s 1588 printed monograph Articuli centum et sexaginta Adversus Matematicos (One hundred and sixty articles against mathematicians). The diagrams are not strict representations of celestial mechanics but descriptive and imagistic tools for a heliocentric world picture\, which Bruno imagined not as singular but as a multi-dimensional space of infinite possibilities. \nJeanne Liotta makes films\, videos\, including video-projections\, works on paper\, and photographic works with thematics often located at the intersection of art\, science\, natural philosophy\, and ephemerality. Her most known 16mm film of the night skies\, Observando El Cielo\, received numerous awards including the Tiger Award at the Rotterdam International Film Festival\, and was voted among the top films of the decade by The Film Society of Lincoln Center. In 2013 Anthology Film Archives presented The Real World at Last Becomes a Myth\, a complete retrospective of her works in film and video\, and in 2014 she received a commission to work with NOAA climate scientists in Boulder\, CO to create 360-degree media work for Science on a Sphere. Her “one-cut” collages The Tiffany One-Cuts culled from pages of the New York Times were incorporated into installations by artist Nancy Shavers at Derek Eller Gallery (2016) and Padiglione USA/La Biennale di Venezia (2017).\nhttp://www.jeanneliotta.net/ \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Installation view\, Break the sky\, Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Napoli 2018 \nJeanne Liotta \nCourtesy Fondazione Morra URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/jeanne-liotta-break-the-sky/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/INDEPENDENT-FILM-SHOW-18th-Edition-cartolina-LIOTTA_page-0001.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20180621T203000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20180623T203000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20181113T165513Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210305T144113Z UID:4464-1529613000-1529785800@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:INDEPENDENT FILM SHOW 18th Edition DESCRIPTION:June 21st\, 2018\nVigna San Martino\nCorso Vittorio Emanuele 340\, Napoli \nJune 22nd and 23rd\, 2018\nBelvedere Museo Nitsch\nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nINDEPENDENT-FILM-SHOW-18th-Edition-PROGRAM-2018 \nIndependent Film Show 18th edition\, an international show dedicated to experimental film\, coordinated by Raffaella Morra\, organised by E-M ARTS associazione culturale\, increases the sensorial experiences of its guests who for three days can participate at 16mm films screening (many are Italian premiere)\, at a concert by Bernhard Schreiner\, and the expanded cinema performances by Jeanne Liotta\, Canecapovolto\, Bea Haut\, and Helga Fanderl starting June Thursday 21st at the Vigna San Martino\, Friday 22nd and Saturday 23rd 2018 at the Museo Nitsch. \nFrom June 22nd to July 6th Jeanne Liotta’s video-installation In This Immense Space Hidden Things Appear Before Us and works on paper are shown at Museo Nitsch’s roof room (in collaboration with Microscope Gallery New York). \nOn 21st June\, summer solstice offers the chance to perform the first program at the precious Vigna San Martino and grants a selected audience to participate\, only on invitation\, to long projection night and live expanded cinema performances until sunrise. \nJeanne Liotta intersects art\, science and natural philosophy in a comprehensive science project\, following Ralph Waldo Emerson’s theories: projected and modified by the artist\, Affect Theory (2013)\, composed of two films in planetary and satellite position\, and Path of Totality\, realized after the total solar eclipse of August 2017\, transport us within a celestial alignment. \nShaped on a philosophical confraternity model in Catania on 1992\, Canecapovolto experiments with the “cognitive dissonance”\, circuit bending and radio drama\, collages on paper… its identity and its message is found among the grey areas between hearing and vision: the HD video Nembutal (2015) is prelude to NAGNAGNAG performance which uses the circuit bending\, or the modification of musical circuits\, children toys\, etc. and the short-circuit as expressive procedure to suggest chaos! Music and noise suddenly become categories with unstable boundaries. It is a point of no return. Circuit bending is to Music as Found footage is to Cinema. \nFree your perceptions curated by Raffaella Morra\, is a mind journey or a deep study of the film apparatus and their possible representations produced by interaction with the observer\, who participates in an adventure of perception free from preconceptions and classifications. \nThese ten films and videos explore knowledge’s boundaries: Christin Turner’s HD video Vesuvius at Home (2017) reveals a symbiosis between cinema\, memory and the spiral of time\, and Bernhard Schreiner’s Victory to Loss Ratio (2013-14) tries to get images and sounds synchronized in our mind; in Heat Shimmer (1978) Arthur and Corinne Cantrill transform the landscape of central Australia into varying degrees of shimmers; in Sphinx on the Seine (2009) Paul Clipson meditates on a series of brief and enigmatic images from around the world. In My Moon Her World (1995) Vicky Smith combines animation with live action treated – pixellated\, refilmed\, in slow motion\, and in Réminiscences (2001-2020) by Olivier Fouchard the pictures shot at Auvergne during the spring 2001 take on the appearance of dreaming things with unreal colors and the addition of found footage; Anja Dornieden & Juan David González Monroy’s Comfort Stations (2018) is a psychological test found by chance and without known authors; Christopher Becks and Emmanuel Lefrant’s film I don’t think I can see an island (2016) is a symbolically authentic non-Euclidean adventure; Take-Off (2006) is a collaborative project originated from the work-in-progress between Katherine Liberovskaya and the composer Al Margolis who activate a relation between images\, sounds and editing processes; Semiconductor’s Heliocentric (2009) uses time-lapse photography and astronomical tracking to plot the sun’s trajectory through a series of landscapes. It is usually almost impossible to visualize how the earth moves around the sun\, even though we know it is true\, instead we ‘see’ the sun moving around us. \nBea Haut is an artist and film-maker in an expanded form\, multimedia and often reactive to the environment\, her works allude to perception of inter-related moments\, spaces and actions in-between. On Friday\, June 22nd for the program Matters of Being Bea Haut selects eleven films by UK film-makers who try to penetrate the enigmatic film materiality\, evoking an interactive zone between object and subject in which arises an entanglement of aliveness\, existence and event. \nWilliam Raban’s Cripps at Acme (1981) is a documentation of a performance by Steve Cripps\, a wildly misbehaved\, and perhaps genuinely unhinged artist of that time. John Smith’s The Hut (1973) is an experiment with visual rhythms which animates still photographs of a decaying building. Through rhythmic intercutting\, Tanya Syed’s film Chameleon (1990) moves silently towards a point of confrontation with the outside world\, shockingly emphasized by the film’s only sound. Inger-Lise Hansen’s Talking to a Stone (1993) creates a fragile and illusionistic balance between the forces of creation and destruction in time. Bill Leslie’s 9 Objects (2016) is part of a project with a deceptively simple title\, ‘what happens to sculpture when it is filmed and photographed?’ which explores in practice the potential relationships between sculptural objects and different representational media. Two films by Laura Hindmarsh: Self Registration (2015) is the act of self-alignment using hand contact printing and Finding Focus (2016) shot at Lake George in Australia to give solutions to the myths which surround the lake’s sudden fluctuation in volume. In Button Box Blast (2016) Mary Stark films an explosion of a box of buttons in a random pattern of optical lights and sounds. Jenny Baines’s two films\, both double 16mm projection\, document two short performances: Untitled (Insertional) (2014) 2 bolex\, a rope\, two artists and a tree\, and Untitled (# 1 25/25 x 10/4) (2016) run around to a tree repeatedly whilst tied to it. Vicky Smith’s Small Things Moving in Unison (2018) confronts the purely plastic problems that persist in the manually made film\, of registering marks in the same place over a series of frames. \nTo deepen the dynamics of film creation\, in the program Mattering and Uttering Bea Haut reveals her film work by selecting ten b/w films: working with 16mm film in a materialistic and do-it-yourself way allows a responsivity to concurbetween the artist and her materials. This becomes an entanglement of thinking\, being and doing\, activating an agency in both the self and the material. The program starts with Pending (2016)\, a 100ft length of film (30.48-meter) is formed by the audience into a ‘live loop’ before being taken up and played out by the projector\, thus creating an empathy between spectators and artist. \nOn Saturday June 23rd the beautiful sunset from the Belvedere Museo Nitsch is the ideal set for the concert The magnetism of knowing and not knowing by Bernhard Schreiner: a performance in which the sound structures are developed live on the basis of ‘instant composition’ (call it improvisation if you wish)\, using a concert zither\, effect- and loop-pedals\, software (for live-input-processing) and a lot of small parts to interfere with the strings of the zither (mallets\, brushes\, metal springs\, slide\, bow\, etc.). \n“…Once a satisfying self-mixing structure is developed\, it might be left alone for some time (or not)\, possibly allowing myself to step back and listen to the evolving self-mixing transformations. I might get back to further interfere with the setup\, overdub\, etc. or even restart the concert from zero (or not).” (Bernhard Schreiner) \nHelga Fanderl continues to innovate Super 8mm film techniques and since the mid-80s has realized over six hundred films\, each lasting about three minutes\, and edited in-camera. Her films arise from intense observation and honed improvisatory approach that depends on rapid reactions and split-second timing. \nConstellations is a temporary montage of twenty-four films (1992-2016) exemplifying some aspects of Helga Fanderl’s poetic that evoke correspondences and contrasts\, thus experiencing an intense form of microcosm and in the silent flow of the frames we may float in a limbo of mental associations without time and space. \n“…Handling the projector\, changing one or more reels\, focusing and framing the images\, introducing my programs and talking about my filmmaking – all this creates a live event and a unique performance corresponding to the poetics of my filmmaking”.

The festival\, a result of the synergy between the cultural no profit associations Phonurgia and E-M Arts and the Fondazione Morra\, gives attention to the most innovative languages of contemporary sound art focusing\, for this edition\, on the relation amid sound and space. During the six events of the festival\, that occur between November 2017 and June 2018\, some Neapolitan locations\, among the oldest\, hidden and unconventional places\, will be rediscovered and reinterpreted through the sound-works of international artists\, thus becoming a performing scene to establish contact with the local and the international music culture\, between listeners and architectural environments. \nFrom the psycho-acoustics by Florian Hecker to the sound sculpture by Thomas Koner\, from OtomoYoshihide’s detournement of turntables to electroacoustics objects by David Toop\, and to audio environment/performance by Pierre Berthet and Rye Nakajima planned in the mysterious Cimitero delle Fontanelle\, La Digestion second edition takes a course in the contemporary experimentation by exploring the power of sound\, that becomes concrete\, physical and sensitive. Significant for the incisiveness of the festival\, for the willingness to establish solid relations with the city’s cultural life\, is the patronage granted by the Comune di Napoli\, as well as the partnership with the Goethe Institut and with the Pro Helvetia Swiss Foundation for culture. \nAfter the incredible preview by master William Basinski in the reopened Chiesa di San Potito\, the official launch of the second exciting edition is Friday\, November 24th with the powerful electronic textures by swiss musician Francisco Meirino and the futuristic audio-video by italian Kanaka\, set in the suggestive Chiesa San Giuseppe alleScalze in Montesanto district\, thanks to the collaboration of Associazione Le Scalze. \nA video-mapping work and an immersive sound landscape by Kanaka group revive the wonderful architecture of the church\, and to follow Francisco Meirino proposes a powerful and dynamic quadriphonic live set that combines sound impact and incredible richness of detail. \nThe poetry of the swiss composer is\, in fact\, absolutely original: particularly concerned with the malfunctions of electronic equipment\, Meirino operates a special recording and composition work of the sounds generated by these desuete machines\, highlighting the collapse of a world only apparently dominated by technological efficiency. Thanks to its originality and its incredible handling and composition of the most diverse soundtracks\, Francisco Meirino is one of the most important sound artists of the experimental music landscape\, appreciated in festivals all over the world. \nLa Digestion second edition has among its many aims the dedication to offer the public the opportunity to approach a kind of music rarely heard\, and not only through performance evenings but also through meetings devoted to engaged listening and conferences with theorists and specialists of this language. Artists in mini-residence have also the chance to wander among the historic stones of Naples\, in order to familiarize with the Neapolitan structures and\, thus\, create a specific setting for audio performance. Workshops\, labos and radio interviews will also be elements of a one-year work that aims to mark new pathways into city’s cultural life.\nThis innovative and multidisciplinary format would offer unique sound experiences\, plunging into a search for a “concrete music” that\, recognised in international context\, has trouble to establish itself in the city. The invitation is to tune into a music to be heard with body and mind\, a music to be entertained with astonishment\, a music to be digested URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/la-digestion-musica-ascoltata-raramente-ii-edizione-3/ LOCATION:Chiesa San Giuseppe delle Scalze\, Salita Pontecorvo\, 65\, Napoli\, Italia CATEGORIES:Casa Morra,Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/24-11-2017-la-digestion_LOCANDINA-MEIRINO-1.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20170705T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20170722T190000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201117T124340Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201216T190640Z UID:4507-1499281200-1500750000@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Hamza Halloubi - How Far is Far? DESCRIPTION:July 5th  –  July 22nd 2017\nOPENING JULY 5th h. 7:00 p.m.\nSala Conferenze del Museo Hermann Nitsch \nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nCurated by Alessandra Troncone \nThe opening of the solo exhibition How Far is Far? by Hamza Halloubi\, curated by Alessandra Troncone\, will take place at the Hermann Nitsch Museum in Naples at 7.00 pm on Wednesday\, 5th July 2017. The exhibition has been organized in conjunction with a residency by the artist at Casa Morra in Naples and will present a selection of videos for the first time in Italy. \nThe work of Hamza Halloubi (born in Tangier\, 1982\, currently living in Brussels) encompasses both personal and historical narration using video as a fluid medium\, able to condense reality into images and stories that fluctuate between the factual and the poetic. In his works\, highly complex topics such as exile\, the silences of history\, and the relationship between art and politics are addressed from a personal point of view. Their concreteness can be felt\, but never occupies the foreground.  A constant in his work is the feeling that something is missing\, producing an atmosphere of suspension as the artist’s voice guides us through stories where private memories\, historical events\, and existential questions flow together into one narrative. \nThe exhibition has been conceived specifically for the spaces within the Museo Hermann Nitsch and will contain older as well as more recent videos. The entire project is built up around the polarity between static elements and movement\, between horizontality and verticality\, to create one whole and new narrative. The videos will include To Leave (2011)\, a powerful image of a departure filmed in Tangier\, the artist’s hometown\, and Letter to Aura (2012)\, also shot in Morocco; here\, a wall seen from a window is the starting point for a reflection on emigration and limitations placed on free movement. \nHamza Halloubi (Tangier\, 1982) studied at La Cambre in Brussels\, where he currently lives. He took part in a residency programme at the Rijksakademie van beeldendekunsten in Amsterdam (2015-2017). He has also held solo exhibitions at the Museum De Pont in Tilburg\, the c-o-m-p-o-s-i-t-e in Brussels\, KIOSK in Ghent\, and the BOZAR- Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels\, among other venues. He has participated in many group exhibitions\, such as the Marrakech Biennale 5 (2014)\, the Thessaloniki Biennial (2015)\, the Close-Up exhibition at the EYE Filmmuseum in Amsterdam (2016)\, and the exhibition In the Belly of the Whale at the Witte de With in Rotterdam (2016)\, among others.\n  URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/hamza-halloubi-how-far-is-far/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Hamza-Halloubi.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20170622T200000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20170624T200000 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201117T151406Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201216T205706Z UID:4515-1498161600-1498334400@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:INDEPENDENT FILM SHOW 17th Edition DESCRIPTION:June 22nd  – June 24th\, 2017\nSTARTING PROJECTIONS AT 8:00 p.m.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch \nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \nINDEPENDENT FILM SHOW 17th edition\, an international show dedicated to independent experimental cinema\, coordinated by Raffaella Morra\, organised by E-M ARTS associazione culturale\, takes place on June Thursday 22nd\, Friday 23rd and Saturday 24th 2017 at the Museo Nitsch programming the screening of three 16mm films programs and three expanded cinema performances. Since 2001\, the Independent Film Show projects the most progressive film experiences\, acting as a cultural propeller for the development of mentalities sensitive to complex perceptual phenomena\, beyond the rigid visual and auditory rules.\nINDEPENDENT FILM SHOW 17th edition’s characteristics are the inventive technique of photographic impression and shooting\, the handcrafted film manuality amplified by Do It Yourself\, the experimentation of new natural organic development agents\, the frames’ rhythm and\, if essential\, the inclusion of audio tracks. The collision between image and perceptual sensation may appear accidental\, but the film-makers invited at IFS apply a resistance to linear perception\, each orienting their own visual understanding in different directions.\nIn the program Innovative paths in the un-known\, Raffaella Morra has selected seven films combined by a strong attraction for the film emulsion and for the alchemic transformations\, in particular unusual chemical processes that inscribe images on film emulsion. Two films made by pioneers of experimental cinema: Two Pictures is a tactile and textured work of cinematic abstraction by Rose Lowder and Carl E. Brown; In the Shadow of Marcus Mountain by Robert Schaller is shot entirely with a homemade pinhole camera and edited largely in-camera through the use of a rhythmic score.\nAmong the recent film investigations\, that attempt to penetrate the enigmatic film materiality and the different emotional states: Dan Browne’s Waterfilm is a complex relation between sound\, image\, and editing processes connected to issues of memory’s legitimacy; Julie Murray’s ELEMENTs is an exploration of a location visited by incidental shadowy figures\, related one to another through the rhythm of their gestures; in Rhus Typhina by Alexandra Moralesová & Georgy Bagdasarov a plant is the main protagonist and acts as film development agent; Sandy Ding’s River in Castle offers repeated references to magic\, often comparing his films to initiation rituals; Josh Lewis’s Doubt # 2 explores boundaries of manual knowledge\, bodily struggle and persistent enigma of material.\nIn cooperation with La Digestion – rarely heard music festival\, Hangjun Lee’s 16mm films are accompanied by Chulki Hong and Will Guthrie’s four-tone sound improvisation. In The Cracked Share\, audience is overwhelmed by a strange array of chemical distorted images coupled with assaultive flicker lights\, a wave of explosive colours and unknown shapes intersected by Hong and Guthrie’s improvisation noise. Phantom Schoolgirl Army investigates the material conditions of photography (photographic plate\, magnesium) and its “conventions” (visuality of portraits\, functions of flash)\, aesthetically reconstructing the dialectic of stillness and motion embedded in the cinema. \nOn Friday\, June 23rd will be screen Nicolas Rey’s Differently\, Molussia\, adapted from the book Die molussische Katakombe by German philosopher Günther Anders\, written between 1932 and 1936\, a book which the filmmaker never read. Hand processed\, out-of-date film stock in nine chapter-titled segments is separated into reels and randomized during projection. The film recounts stories and allegorical thoughts by political prisoners in an imaginary fascist state called Molussia. The film’s nine sections ruminate on capitalism\, imperialism\, and resistance. \nIn the expanded cinema performance Scarface by Greg Pope the manipulation of 16mm projection\, slide projection\, contact microphones and guitar pick-ups are combined in the architectural space. Improvisation and randomness are also factors in a dynamic process where we witness the destructive treatment of analogue film with a death cult magic lantern show. \nOn Saturday\, June 24th A Bright Darkness includes three films and the expanded cinema performance by Anja Dornieden and Juan David González Monroy\, who go by the moniker Ojoboca. They use film manipulation processes and suggestive techniques to create Horrorism a simulated method of inner and outer transformation. In an interview\, Juan David González Monroy explains: “…Basically\, cinema is a machine that talks to you\, tells you a story. Given the dynamics of the cinema\, the machine is programmed by the filmmakers to personally talk to each individual member of the audience. We started thinking about cinema this way by accident\, but since this is what cinema in essence does\, we thought we would focus on that aspect of it. Of course\, the machine might be insane\, it might be lying\, it might be trying to convince you of different ways to view the world\, or it might just be trying to entertain you by telling you a good story”. \n  \n  URL:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/en/evento/independent-film-show-17th-edition/ LOCATION:Museo Hermann Nitsch\, Vico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli\, 80135\, Italia CATEGORIES:Museo Nitsch ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.fondazionemorra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/locandina-2017.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170405 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170406 DTSTAMP:20260513T022529 CREATED:20201119T114041Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210223T101759Z UID:4510-1491350400-1491436799@www.fondazionemorra.org SUMMARY:Perspectives on Portraits and Place: The films of Adele Friedman DESCRIPTION:April 5th\, 2017\nSTARTING PROJECTIONS AT 7:30 p.m.\nMuseo Hermann Nitsch \nVico Lungo Pontecorvo 29/d\, Napoli \n“For more than three decades\, Chicago filmmaker Adele Friedman has been forging and refining an original vision with her silent portraits in which wide-angle cinematography and obsessive panning spread out the spaces of apartments and gardens\, creating a sensuous panorama of the ordinary.”  Fred Camper \nTonight’s program spans 38 years\, beginning with an early portrait from 1979. Included in the show are portraits and films of place: nature\, gardens\, architecture\, rivers.\nThese films are perspectives\, as seen by the filmmaker and presented to the viewer.\nCompositions of space between people\, objects\, interiors and exteriors\, all within the film frame\, are a critical element of what one is seeing in film. These compositions change constantly with movement\, both of the subjects and by the filmmaker\, allowing for interpretation and reinterpretation.\nThe portrait films are about cultural people and how their lives are informed by their interiors and artistic tastes. They surround themselves with what moves them. People do not leave their culture at the museum or the office; they bring it home and live with it. It is part and parcel of the daily fabric of their lives.\nAlso included in this program is an early dreamscape which explores the structural narrative of dreams and the subconscious.\nFriedman chooses to work in 16mm because of the delicate\, soft quality of light revealed through film\, conveying the layers and nuances of value and color. The films are silent\, urging the viewer to focus entirely on the projected image. \nAdele Friedman received her M.F.A. and her graduate degree in Art History from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her films are distributed by Light Cone in Paris\, and she has exhibited internationally over the past 33 years\, including E-M Arts in Napoli as part of the Fôret exhibition; Scratch Projection in Paris; Oesterreichisches Filmmuseum\, Vienna\, Austria; Munich Stadtmuseum-Filmmuseum\, Germany; Frankfurt Deutsches Filmmuseum Kommunales Kino\, Germany; Arsenal\, Kino der Freunde der Deutschen Kinemathek\, Berlin; Fylkingen\, Turbidus Film\, Stockholm\, Sweden; Innocent Eyes and Lenses Film Festival\, Tokyo\, Japan; Big as Life: An American History of 8mm Film\, The Museum of Modern Art\, New York; The 26th New York International Film Festival; Millennium Film Workshop\, New York; The Onion City Experimental Film and Video Festival\, Chicago; The Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago; among many other exhibitions.

The physical mechanisms of film construction\, such as the different photographic impression techniques\, the chemical transformations of film and the metamorphosis process of light\, remain the investigation fulcrum around which to build your own journey. An experience of disorientation can assault the inexperienced or occasional viewer\, which penetrates in a territory characterized by unexpected. There is no single answer\, nor the illusion of verisimilitude to trust\, instead\, it is necessary to allow a whirlwind of sensations that stimulate an unusual perceptual activity\, imprinted in memory. \nThe concrete materiality of the film strips and the mechanics of projection are firmly in the hands of the film-makers\, that control the minute details of creation and\, with the closure of large companies\, such as Kodak\, the incipit is Do It Yourself\, furthermore appropriating of the production stages. A significant impulse to collaboration and inventive between artisanal film labs has significantly expanded the experimental possibilities of film-makers. Independent Film Show 16th edition is an exploration between the experiences of these laboratories: Explorative Journey program selected by Raffaella Morra is a brief excursus on recent films made at the Etna and the Abominable in France\, the Filmwerkplatts in Rotterdam and Nanolab in Australia. \nKarel Doing\, founder of Studio één Lab in 1990 and currently with Bea Haut Film in Process (in Naples two IFS editions\, with live performances titled Four Eyes\, 2006 and Darkloupe\, 2012)\, selects Cinematica Erratica program\, a celebration of sabotaged film language\, that embrace wrong shots\, techniques and sounds that normally would be seen as inaccurate and faulty. Absurdism is used as a strong antidote against existing codes of conduct\, absence is used to evoke a renewed sense of wonder\, and by colliding the natural with the technological\, borders are blurred. \nHand and Machine presents six recent film works from Australian DIY cine-experimentalists Richard Tuohy and Dianna Barrie\, exploring the primitive apparatus of cinema and the relation between hand and machine. In particular\, they created Chromaflex\, a new photo-chemical technique which allows selectively controlled negative and positive colour and black and white images on the same strip of film. What is more\, the technique allows these selection decisions to be made in full light. \nOn Thursday\, June 23rd (11:00am-03:00pm) and Friday June 24th (hours 03:00-08:00pm)\, the Chromaflex method will be argument of the workshop\, organized in collaboration with ARK-FILM lab TerzoPianoAutogestito (at Palazzo Gravina / registration required). \nIn live expanded cinema performances\, the knowledge of projective apparatus\, the environment\, the improvisation and the chance comprehend in a dynamic process\, triggered by public participation: on Thursday June 23rd Portraits by 70FTP (Andrea Saggiomo)\, on Friday June 24th Palindrome Series and Pattern/Chaos by Karel Doing\, on Saturday June 25th Dot Matrix and Inside the Machine by Richard Tuohy.
