Sensible à l’historicité des lieux et des savoir-faire, Équipe Créative s’engage auprès de structures locales, d’artistes, d’artisans et de créateurs. En ce sens, elle s’attache à valoriser la technicité de personnes dont les métiers s’inscrivent dans des territoires et des temporalités propres.

 

Pour toute demande de collaboration, d'initiatives mettant à l'honneur les formes marginales d'expressions artistiques et les savoir-faire traditionnels, pour toute demande d'adhésion :

J’ADORE VENISE – ON DISAPPEARING BODIES 

Video art
8’20
Italy
2024

SYNOPSIS

An investigation into the complex relationship between Venice’s body and its users, focusing on the phenomenon of disappearing bodies resulting from both anthropogenic environmental degradation and the pervasive influence of surveillance capitalism. J’adore Venise—on disappearing bodies inquires into the (in)visible infrastructure of Venice’s new surveillance system Smart Control Room reflecting on the challenges of the Smart Cities 2.0.
The Italian pop song J’adore Venise punctuates this investigative research that encompasses both a profound affection for and a critical evaluation of Venice: A paradoxical declaration of love.

What happens when tourism becomes the main narrator: When the tourist, capitalist-driven narrative infiltrates local economies and becomes the main place-making tool? How can we reformulate the extractive narrative of surveillance capitalism aiming to give agency back to local citizens, users and narratives?

ABOUT DIRECTOR

Stefano Dealessandri is an Italian, digitally contaminated artist based in Germany. He studied Kommunikationsdesign at the HAW Hamburg majoring in New Media by Prof. Aram Bartholl and visual communication and architecture at the BezalelAcademy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem.

His practice revolves around the investigation of the environment(s) he is surrounded by, their materiality and inherent glitches aka catalyst for questioning our normative understanding of the visual and verbal spaces we as users, agents and viewers inhabit.

Since 2019 he is member of the curatorial team at Frappant Galerie in Hamburg (DE), where in 2020 he cofounded the online exhibition space Der Vierte Raum—a dynamic platform for conceptual, time based and performative exhibition formats that happen outside the realm of the white cube. The online space is meant to function as an extension of the Hamburg project space Frappant Galerie to create new contextual meaning.
