Once upon a time, there were the art globetrotters. Their agenda was full of must-go destinations, the most coveted places where the rituals of contemporary creativity were celebrated.
Pirelli HangarBicocca opened a retrospective on Chen Zhen’s works (Shanghai, 1955 - Paris, 2000). The show gathers a wide selection of installations from the 1990s until his death. Chen Zhen focused on the relationship between spirituality and the modern capitalist culture for a long time.
Mara Fabbro and Alberto Pasqual try to raise people about the man-environment relationship using plastic. The former Ospedale dei Battuti hosts the “È per sempre”. The exhibition opens with the installation La fine del pesce consisting of a labyrinth made of lots of plastic bags in which suffocation and hope of rebirth meet. The second and third floors of the building host two solo shows dedicated to the two authors.
Agnes Pelton’s bright, abstract, and almost transcendental images are on display at the Whitney Museum. Her choice to avoid the distractions of big-city life (she lived in Water Mill, Long Island, from 1921 to 1932, and, then, in Cathedral City, a small community near Palm Springs, California) did not help her become famous. However, this probably allowed her to experience the spiritual reality she conveys in her works.
For Andrew Warhola Jr., aka Andy Warhol, food was a real passion.
On February 22, 1987, Andy Warhol, one of the most influential artists on the contemporary scene, left us at the age of 58.
Dear Friends, let's take heart: a few days left on this annus horribilis. We tried to react to adversities with the foundation of AW ArtMag. We wish a sincere thanks to all who take part to transform this crazy editorial project to a success for the critics and amazing unexpected sales.
And now, let's aim to 2021: it might be the annus mirabilis, why not?
my best wishes
