Enrico David “Né Altra, Né Questa” the Labyrinth Challenge Venice Biennale International Art Exhibition
“Né Altra, Né Questa”, the challenge to the labyrinth, “La Sfida al Labirinto” is the theme of the exhibition of the Italian Pavilion at the Venice Art Biennale 2019.
The artists Enrico David, Chiara Fumai and Liliana Moro are exhibited there.
La Sfida al Labirinto is an essay by the writer Italo Calvino, written in 1962.
The author proposes a cultural work open to all possible languages and who feels co-responsible for building a world in which all are all the traditional points of reference will have been lost.
In this quest and to visualize the entangled forms of contemporary reality, Italo Calvino refers to the concept of the labyrinth, an apparent tangle of lines and trends that, in fact, are the result of construction following rigorous construction rules.
The exhibition of the Italian Pavilion at the 2019 Art Biennale stages Calvino’s essay by creating a tour that precisely refers to the theme of the labyrinth.
In a setting of white partitions, walkways without exits, paths that intersect without apparent rules with angles, widths and lengths as diverse as they are varied, the visitor to the exhibition is indeed disoriented!
In fact, impossible to follow a well-marked path to visit the Pavilion.
We turn left, right, and find ourselves where we were previously without knowing if we did not miss a room or work.
Enrico David’s works are exciting.
The works that we photographed for you are in the room called “Tutto il resto spegnere II” (you can switch off everything else).
An exhibition space with sculptures representing characters with double faces or multiple faces such as Janus, twins, or quadruplets.
