In every exhibition project, Bizhan Bassiri is careful to present both the outcome of his most recent creative work and a selection of emblematic pieces capable of articulating principles, rules, and constants that recall the poetic foundations of his aesthetic tension.<\/p>\n

As with other significant occasions, the selection of Bassiri’s works for the exhibition at the Museo Correr does not fail to engage in dialogue with the host space<\/strong>, taking into account environmental aspects, especially when they possess their own particular aesthetic or historical qualities.<\/p>\n

Within this perspective lies the exhibition design of Principe. Il nottambulo del Pensiero Magmatico<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The figure of the Prince, a phantasmal iconography, witness and alter ego of the artist, welcomes visitors at two of the four thresholds granting access to the exhibition space. Through ninety images portraying artists chosen by Bassiri, from the masters of the fifteenth century to those of the twenty-first, he constructs an ideal kind of genealogical tree, to which he feels he belongs for many and varied reasons.<\/p>\n

With the intention of creating a \u201cpicture gallery\u201d that surrounds the visitor and meets their gaze<\/strong>, Bassiri conceived a suspended, stepped arrangement of the works, developing from the lowest parts of the walls up to their maximum height. While the bronze Meteorite<\/em> evokes the emblematic \u201cverticality\u201d of art, rising from the floor to its apex (270 cm), the Fratino<\/em> and the Serpents<\/em> resting upon it are instead entrusted with making perceptible the \u201chorizontality\u201d of the encounter with the reality of things and the pause of contemplation.<\/p>\n

The exhibition layout, despite the overall structural solemnity of the installation, offers a non-rigid mode of viewing, conceived as a sensation of fluid vibration that envelops Venice and opens itself to an encounter with the visitor, in full respect of the protection and conservation of the works.<\/p>\n

The exhibition can be visited according to the museum\u2019s opening hours<\/a> and access conditions<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
