Noise

Venice Biennale Collateral Events
May 27, 2013 11:04PM

One hundred years since the publication of The Art of Noise— Luigi Russolo’s futurist manifesto of 1913 — a collateral exhibition at the 55th Venice Biennale reflects upon noise as a necessary condition and integral part of communication. 

From the visual translations of acoustic material by Carsten Nicolai to the reproduced portraits by Anne-James Chaton, from the computer viruses of Joseph Nechvatal to the sound installations of Roberto Pugliese and the distortions by Pascal Dombis, all the artists in the exhibition explore the aesthetics of noise, called at once “a stench in the ear, undomesticated music, and the chief product and authenticating sign of civilization.”

Ex Magazzini di San Cassian, Santa Croce 2254 (Calle della Regina, Campo San Cassian)

June 1st – October 20th 10 am – 6 pm, closed on Mondays

Organization: De Arte Associazione
