Description
Rethink Everything is the result of an exhibition conceived shortly before the pandemic started, and which was resignified in the context of isolation that began in March 2020. It proposes to return to a set of works made before the crisis that can be read in code of the present; works which interrogate man´s relationship with nature, the radical differences in the distribution of wealth, the existence of inequalities, the meaning of domesticity, isolation, loneliness, forms of memory and feminism as a practice and as a theory that installed these questions in advanced.
The works gathered in this book are accompanied by Andrea Giunta’s sharp analysis, who highlights that images of art are archives of experiences: when we approach them from new contexts, from different questions, their latent meanings are agitated. Additionally, the juxtaposition of the images, their closeness in the space, creates a contact zone; a new iridescence is produced in what we see. The closeness provokes unexpected shines of the image.
If an art exhibit is an experience that implicates all of our senses, Rethink Everything replicates this possibility. In this beautiful and innovative book, whose design is at the same level as the intensity of the works it contains, the reader will also have the occasion to find the voices of the participating artists. It is, then, a multiple experience that combines an analysis about contemporary art, works of artists who are representative of their tendencies, and the reflections they make about their job and about the world we share.
