“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.
Pera Museum, in collaboration with Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), is one of the main venues for this year’s 15th Istanbul Biennial from 16 September to 12 November 2017.
How can the future be imagined by looking at a collection or an archive? The lasting quality of ceramics allows us to ponder how the future might be remembered through a ceramics collection, since they render conceivable time eternal.
Each memory tells an intimate story; each collection presents us with the reality of containing an intimate story as well. The collection is akin to a whole in which many memories and stories of the artist, the viewer, and the collector are brought together. At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.
