MAMbo is pleased to present, as part of its schedule
of exhibitions for the upcoming year, the TIME CODE
project, curated by Fabiola Naldi e Alessandra Pioselli.
TIME CODE intends to explore, through the determination
of categories of decodification and mise en scène,
one of the elements most strictly connected to the medium
of video: temporality.
TIME CODE will analyze the procedures and devices chosen
by artists to organize different temporal structures
and, in an anthropological perspective, the manner in
which these are perceived and interpreted by the spectator.
The project will be carried out in a series of eight
events featuring the presentation of sixteen videos
of Italian and international artists, chosen and exhibited
according to four categories: Representation, Documentation,
Presentation and Quotation.
In each event of the series, the works of the artists
will be displayed in different spaces of the museum
to create dialogue with the complex architectural structure
of the new Museo d’Arte Moderna di Bologna.
Each session consists of:
A public conference with the artists and curators,
based on the featured content of TIME CODE (6:30pm)
The presentation of two videos (which will be on display
until the following installment).
The videos presented will be interpreted through the
lenses of the four categories cited above, analyzing
the presence (or absence) of: hypertext, paraphrase,
metaphor, iconography, and metalinguistics.
The series will also examine the adoption of procedures
of manipulating visual and tonal elements in the post
production phase including: sampling, re-mixing, use
of feed back and looping as forms of disturbing repetition.
