“March 1977, I landed in Bologna, in an unknown city on the brink of civil war. Arranged, decisive stay with bits of memories, snippets, first names, fragments of effervescence: that of my awakening to World, to desire and that of a general rebellion that shook Bologna like a spasm.” Bologna Centrale began as a radio piece for France Culture, broadcast in March 2003, and is a kind of film diary, a retrospective autobiography, a sort of sentimental documentary about the late 1970s in Bologna where Dieutre lived for three years and returned 20 years later. The film also explores the Italy’s political history during the period when it was stricken by terrorism.
The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humorous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.
Three figures in Eastern dress are shown in repose against an exotic landscape, smoking pipes and playing mangala. Inventories of the royal collections from 1739 identify the members of this group as the royal eunuch Matthias and two odalisques.
