Workshop: “Inventing what exists” by Iginio De Luca and Luis Do Rosario

“INVENTING WHAT EXISTS”

WORKSHOP AT THE ITALIAN CULTURAL INSTITUTE IN JAKARTA

BY IGINIO DE LUCA AND LUIS DO ROSARIO

 

“Change the point of view and revolutionize an aesthetic and conceptual gaze.”

Starting from the sentence by Serge Daney that signs the title of the workshop and connecting us to the famous text by Arthur Danto ” The Transfiguration of the Commonplace: A Philosophy of Art”, the workshop will revolve around the “Tevere Expo” project, on display at this Institute. It reflects on the possibility of redeeming a daily dramatic dimension, a reality of abandonment and degradation, raising it, sublimating it to a creative and poetic approach.

The idea is also to involve students in setting up an exhibition and make them participate in a site specific installation.

During the three days, walking will be a recurring and familiar attitude, an illuminating gesture that will be linked to this project and to the very act of slowing down time, a specific photography approach. In fact each subject depicted is the result of many walks and slow observations under the river banks. “Walking expands every moment”, in “Walking: One Step At a Time ” by Erling Kagge, tells us about the experience of freedom in which the world becames softer,

DURATION OF THE WORKSHOP: 4 DAYS FOR 3-4 HOURS A DAY, 22, 23, 24 AND 27 AUGUST 2022.
