- Greffes

Curated by Pier Paolo Pancotto

The collaboration among artists is an experience with often surprising results comparable to those produced in nature by an implant, an emblematic meeting point between science and experimentation, a fact and an imponderability. Greffes (Grafts) is the spokesman of this phenomenon, always alive even if little known. On this occasion, different authors for generation, culture and language, after the exhibition in Rome (Académie de France, Villa Medici, 2017) and in Cluj Napoca (Lateral Art Space, 2018), meet in Venice as original, sometimes unexpected, witnesses of creative dialogue that, for a long time, puts them in tune. They thus give rise to Greffes, the result of their mutual esteem and professional and emotional brotherhood, in a game of intellectual and visual references that is the basis of today’s exhibition project. The works on show, born from the collaboration among the various authors and conceived for the occasion, are the testimony of this.
