Duo exhibition with Valentino Russo.
The exhibition is loosely inspired from the legacy of the renown Whole Earth Catalog originally published from 1968 to 1971. The catalog became an instant-classic among counterculture. Thanks to its environmental orientation and embodying a do-it-yourself/self-sufficiency mentality, under the slogan “access to tools”, it indexed alternative and esoteric knowledge.
Half a century later, in a world dominated by efficiency, where people and goods travel the globe relentlessly, the catalog assumes the status of an utopian vision. In a moment in which slowing down seems impossible, running with turtles becomes a strategy of resistance.
“Oh darling…” shouts an ungraspable entity, where the works instead of trying to fill the void of the exhibition space, almost amplify it. A series of footprints on the walls, a suspicious backpack and what appears to be an oddly cropped ad from the Dutch national airline KLM, are remnants of a human presence, now absent, always in transit.
