Daria Martinoni: URBAN VERTIGO

20 Apr 2021 – 27 Jun 2021

MyMicroGallery Virtual is pleased to announce URBAN VERTIGO a 3D solo exhibition by the Swiss photographer Daria Martinoni. Daria Martinoni uses photography to playfully de-construct urban spaces, to spatially re-stage urban contexts, and to play with our perception of space and reality. In simply medical terms, Vertigo can be explained as an irritation of our senses, caused by a conflict of information transmitted from our eyes and inner ear to the brain. Vertigo, however, is not only related to the experience of great height. A range of factors – including movement, speed, and visual stimuli – create vertiginous sensations. Some of us will have experienced such symptoms when, for example, engaged in activities which tend to change or even eliminate our perception of the horizon in relation to our own position in a space. Vertigo is a notoriously ambiguous notion, oscillating between pleasure and anxiety, and inhabiting both our embodied and imagined worlds. Daria Martinoni was inspired by her childhood nightmares - to be falling from great height into empty space, or to be running through endless corridors without gaining any ground - for this project, she exploited the geometry of the urban environment, and she played with perspectives and angles to create a sense of direction and an impression of depth and width. Daria Martinoni experiments with long shutter speeds and several zoom settings or camera positions in one exposure. This technique creates a moment of irritation, but also conveys a sense of calmness in the chaos, and transfers the scene into a transitional world somewhere between reality and dream. Giving a face to emptiness and silence, this is what Daria Martinoni wants to express with her photographic research, a research that is the result of a desire to investigate reality with always curious eyes. Daria Martinoni lives and works in Zurich. This video will be presented in June 2021 in Venice in conjunction with Biennale di Archittettura at Santa Eufemia Gallery.

Respiro

27 Mar 2021 – 30 Apr 2021

March 27th - April 27th, 2021 Curated by Stefania Carrozzini Location: Kunstmatrix Artists: Rosaspina Buscarino, Kentaro Chiba, Cristina Cary, Simonetta Chierici, Denise Cummings, Giovanna Del Magno, Marcello Diotallevi, Gro Folkan, Grazia Gabbini, Buyong Hwang,Susi Lamarca, Inés Mantel, Luke Mitchell, Riitta Nelimarkka, Maurizio Pini, Tiziana Priori, Christopher Pisk, Jacqueline Real, Marcello Sestito, Yuko Shinozaki, Vittorio Sironi Respiro: Music by Maurizio Pini ( all rights reserved) MyMicroGallery è lieta di annunciare ”Respiro”, una mostra a cura di Stefania Carrozzini a cui partecipano ventuno artisti provenienti da diversi paesi: Corea, Germania, Finlandia, Giappone, Italia, Norvegia, Regno Unito, Stati Uniti, Svizzera. La mostra è composta di trenta opere tra pittura, scultura, libri d’artista , allestimento sonoro. Si tratta di un progetto internazionale e di un concetto itinerante che coinvolge artisti dai vari linguaggi espressivi, ma che condividono la stessa sensibilità verso l’immateriale. Il Respiro è l’elemento vitale per eccellenza, sottile connubio tra spirito e materia, entità di un mondo unico e indivisibile, l’alternanza durata fra onda e risacca, tra dentro e fuori. Il Respiro è un fatto corporeo e quindi è dal corpo che partiamo in questa mostra, dal pensiero e dall’azione dall’immaginario degli artisti, che offrono diverse narrazioni visive e testuali di tale attività basica che è di tutti gli esseri umani, del mondo animale e vegetale. La parola 'Respiro', dal latino respirare, è composta di re, che indica ripetizione, e spirare cioè soffiare e quando è stata ideata era una parola dotta, adatta a considerazioni di carattere medico, fisiologico. È poi diventata parte del lessico comune come per tutti i derivati di 'spirare' in italiano: dall'inspirare ed espirare al traspirare, dal sospirare all’ispirare e allo spirito. Apre così a meravigliosi significati figurati tra cui spiccano quelli del sollievo e della pausa. Nell'agitazione il ritmo del respiro si accorcia e genera una mente inquieta, mentre nella pausa il respiro torna a prendersi il suo spazio, ad allargare il torace, ad attutire il caos; parimenti, l'oppressione dell'ansia e dell'angoscia parlano etimologicamente di ansito, di affanno, di una stretta che riconduciamo immediatamente a un peso sul respiro: comprendiamo come sia naturale intendere il respiro ritrovato, come un autentico sollievo. I buddisti ci hanno insegnato ad ascoltarlo, il respiro, a prenderne coscienza, come mezzo per risvegliarsi e mantenere la piena attenzione al fine di guardare con cura, a lungo e in profondità la natura di tutte le cose. La parola sanscrita “Prana” si riferisce all’energia vibrante di ogni manifestazione vitale che ha in sé, in forma microcosmica, l’alternarsi tra giorno e notte, la magica melodia della creazione, il ritmo pulsante del tempo cosmico. L’arte, non è solo coscienza percettiva, ma è il respiro della conoscenza e della bellezza, indispensabile come l’aria per la sopravvivenza della nostra umanità. Tutte le opere d’ampio respiro, che su diversi fronti espressivi e linguistici si rendono maestose e presenti, hanno una voce forte, sono potentemente ispirate e donano un senso di libertà perché abbracciano la vita. Breath is the vital element par excellence, a subtle union between spirit and matter, the entity of a unique and indi¬visible world, the alternation between wave and undertow, between inside and outside. Breathing is a bodily fact and therefore it is from the body that we start in this exhibition: from thought and action, from the imagination of the artists who offer different visual and textual narratives of this basic activity that is proper to all human beings, to the an¬imal and plant world. The word 'Respiro' (Breath), from the Latin respirare, is com¬posed by -re, meaning repetition, and -spirare, meaning to blow. It was formulated as a learned word suitable for med¬ical, physiological considerations. It then became part of the common lexicon as with all the derivatives of 'spirare' in Italian: from inspirare to espirare, from traspirare (to transpire) to sospirare (to sigh) . These words thus open up wonderful figurative meanings among which those of relief and pause stand out. In the turmoil, the rhythm of the breath shortens and generates a restless mind, while in the pause the breath returns to take its time, to widen the chest, to dampen the chaos; likewise, the oppression given by anxiety and anguish speak etymologically of wheezing, of breathlessness, of a tightness that we immediately relate to a weight on the breath: we understand how natural it is to understand the newfound breath as an authentic relief. Buddhists have taught us to listen to the breath, to become aware of it, as a means of awakening and maintaining full attention in order to look carefully, long and deep into the nature of all things. The Sanskrit word "Prana" refers to the vibrant energy of every vital manifestation that has within itself, in microcos¬mic form, the alternation of day and night, the magical melody of creation, the pulsating rhythm of cosmic time. Art is not only perceptive consciousness but the breath of knowledge and beauty, indispensable as air for the survival of our humanity. All of the wide-ranging works, which on different expressive and linguistic fronts are majestic and present, have a strong voice, are powerfully inspired and give a sense of freedom because they embrace life.

Gro Folkan : Before the Eyes Focus

26 Feb 2021 – 26 Mar 2021

Gallery Unlock is pleased to present, from February 26 to March 26, 2021 "Before the Eyes Focus" a virtual solo exhibition by the Norwegian artist Gro Folkan . The exhibition brings together 21 artworks. In "Before the Eyes Focus", the artist investigates the space that lies beyond the vision, where the images not yet formed already possess a body, a physical pregnancy, an uncontaminated nature. A gaze that allows access to the auroral dimension, which lies in the middle, between reality and listening to a world not yet revealed and which corresponds to the intermediate time of focusing. Gro Folkan was born in Oslo, Norway and she lives between Oslo and Tromsoe. She studied Art at the National Art Academy in Oslo. She has had 32 solo exhibitions of her paintings in leading galleries in Norway and abroad and has also taken part in numerous joint exhibitions. Her works have been purchased by the Norwegian National Gallery, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Oslo, the National Bank of Norway, Art collections , national universities, institutions, and national Offices. She has worked for many years to develop a technique suitable for her purpose. She uses metals a lot : gold, silver, brass, copper, aluminum, tin, smoked silver, palladium, platinum. If suitable she treats them chemically for the deeper layers of the artwork to come through and create new colors. She also uses interference colors that change depending on the angle of view. “My pictures – Gro Folkan says - are instruments, like runes, used for thousands of years by Northern peoples to invoke hidden aspects of reality. In our time the runes will not be the same as thousand years ago, but in a different language, and with different types. That is what I am looking for. The real pictures, the images are not the lines and colors on my canvases, but the images coming into being in the mind of the onlooker’. Gallery Unlock is a Mymicrogallery project.

Grammatiche Terrestri

10 Nov 2022 – 08 Dec 2022

MURIELLE ARGOUD, STEPHANIE CHAMBERS FRANCES CLARKE, BONNIE EISEN, GRAZIA GABBINI, AKSHITA GANDHI, LATANA, MAURIZIO PINI, KAREN SCHORY, MARCELLO SESTITO, VINCENZO TORCELLO MyMicroGallery Virtual è lieta di presentare la mostra collettiva “Grammatiche Terrestri” a cui partecipano undici artisti: Murielle Argoud (FR), Stephanie Chambers( US) Frances Clarke (UK), Bonnie Eisen, (US), Grazia Gabbini (Italy) Akshita Gandhi (India) Latana (US/Singapore) Maurizio Pini (Italy) Karen Schory(US) Marcello Sestito (Italy) Vincenzo Torcello (Italy). In mostra opere fotografiche, collages, pittura e installazione che scandiscono un percorso di mappe narrative in cui ogni artista si relaziona con il tema della Terra muovendosi tra scienza ed enigma, algoritmo e spontaneità. Le foto aeree e le immagini procurate attraverso le sonde spaziali, ci presentano la superficie terrestre e le impronte umane che la connotano come una realtà oggettiva, che esiste e vive al di fuori dell’individuo. Questa è la grammatica razionalista , che definisce la geografia convenzionale e che vuole essere una parte fondamentale delle conoscenze su cui è basata la nostra vita. C'è però un altro modo di rappresentare la superficie terrestre, che è quello dell’arte in cui la sacralità dei luoghi, fisici e psichici, è considerata come parte della nostra esperienza profonda e della nostra percezione del mondo. Questa è la geografia umanistica, che pone l'individuo nelle sue condizioni esistenziali, al centro della rappresentazione, e considera i luoghi nei termini in cui entrano a far parte della sfera emozionale e spirituale. La mostra mette a confronto diversi modi espressivi per territori emotivamente percepiti approdando ad affrontare temi fondamentali, dalla città alla rete urbana, dal paesaggio al concetto di confine, all’esperienza di esseri umani abitanti del Pianeta Terra. Così come ogni grammatica sottintende etimologicamente la téchne, ossia "arte (o tecnica) della scrittura” , la grammatica terrestre assunta dalla comunicazione creativa va oltre la visione ordinaria delle cose, ha bisogno di essere nutrita dallo scambio tra entità dello stesso ciclo organico che si riconoscono come parte del tutto. Attraverso tale comprensione è possibile leggere il mondo che ci circonda come un libro densissimo di segni a volte incomprensibili, mai però casuali. Tutti gli elementi della natura comunicano tra loro e niente è separato, solo a noi esseri umani le cose appaiono divise, in realtà sono tutte concatenate come parti di un unico corpo. Abbiamo segnato la superficie terrestre con confini spaziali marcati che hanno prodotto gravi disuguaglianze fa nazioni regioni e classi ed etnie, spolpato e colonizzato territori sottolineando le differenze piuttosto che i valori che ci possono unire. La grammatica terrestre, opera creativa dell’uomo, mira a colmare la distanza tra cultura e natura, poiché è impossibile pensare alle due cose come entità separate. Gli artisti, come architetti del paesaggio dell’anima, intessono reti fisiche e virtuali, trascendendo i confini del visibile. C’è dunque una grammatica, una legge , una regola, che struttura il mondo fisico (e non fisico) che ci circonda, così come c’è una sintassi, una comunicazione impressa dall’essere umano che rinnova il presente con il suo operare, creando sempre nuovi palinsesti. La grammatica terrestre è la lingua della natura-cultura con i suoi codici tutti perfettamente interconnessi che compongono lo spazio geografico, biologico e psichico. Per espandere il pensiero ed evolverci dovremmo fare nostro il regale messaggio del maestro Joseph Beuys: “l’uomo e la natura con l’animo riunito costruiranno un nuovo mondo”. (S. C.) La mostra sarà visibile dal 16 novembre all’8 dicembre 2022 su app. Per informazioni: T. +39 338 4305675 stefaniacarrozzini@gmail.com Dal 16 Novembre all’8 Dicembre 2022 MyMicroGallery Via Giovanni Boccaccio 24 20123 Milano www.mymicrogallery.com Opening Reception: mercoledì 16 novembre 18.30 – 20.30 MyMicroGallery is pleased to present the international group exhibition "Grammatiche Terrestri" in which eleven artists participate: Murielle Argoud (FR), Stephanie Chambers (US) Frances Clarke (UK), Bonnie Eisen, (US), Grazia Gabbini (Italy) Akshita Gandhi ( India) Latana (US / Singapore) Maurizio Pini (Italy) Karen Schory (US) Marcello Sestito (Italy) Vincenzo Torcello (Italy). On display are: photography, collages, paintings and installations that mark a path of narrative maps in which each artist relates to the theme of the Earth, moving between science and enigma, algorithm and spontaneity. Aerial photographs and images taken from space probes show us the Earth’s surface and the human footprint that characterises it, as an objective reality existing and living outside the individual. This is a rationalist grammar, defining conventional geography and which purports to be a fundamental part of the knowledge on which our life is based. There is, however, another way of representing the Earth’s surface: that of art, in which the sacredness of places, both physical and non-physical, is considered to be part of our profound experience and our perception of the world. This is a human grammar, which places the individual within his or her existential condition, at the centre of representation, and regards place in terms that belong to the language of emotions and the spirit. The exhibition compares various different means of expression and “grammars”, addressing fundamental issues, from the city to urban networks, to the landscape, to the concept of border, to the experience of being a human being living on Planet Earth. All the elements of nature communicate with each other and nothing is separate; it is only to us human beings that things appear divided, in reality they are all linked together as parts of a single body. Just as every grammar etymologically implies the téchne, that is “art (or technique) of writing”, the terrestrial grammar used in creative communication goes beyond the ordinary way of seeing things. It needs to be nourished by the interchange of entities of the same organic cycle that recognise each other as part of the whole. Understanding things in this way, it is possible to regard the world surrounding us as a very dense book of signs which are sometimes incomprehensible, but never random. All the elements of nature intercommunicate and nothing is separate. We have marked the earth's surface with spatial boundaries, physical demarcations that have produced serious inequalities between nations, regions and classes and ethnic groups, stripped and colonized territories, emphasising the differences rather than the values that can unite us. Terrestrial grammar, the creative work of human beings, aims to bridge the gap between culture and nature, since it is impossible to think of the two as separate entities. Artists, as architects of the landscape of the soul, weave physical and virtual networks, transcending the boundaries of the visible. There is therefore a grammar, a law, a rule, which structures the physical (and non-physical) world that surrounds us, just as there is a syntax, a means of communication which is made by human beings . Terrestrial grammar is the intrinsic language of the perfectly interconnected codes, of which geography, biology, the psychological and the spiritual are all composed. To expand our thinking and evolve, we should make our own the royal message of master Joseph Beuys: “Human beings and nature with a united soul will build a new world.” (S.C.)
