Francesco Fonassi / Margherita Moscardini

13 December 2012 - 10 February 2013
curated by Michele D’Aurizio

From 13 December 2012 to 10 February 2013, the Project Room 2 of the MACRO – Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Roma will host an exhibition of works by Francesco Fonassi and Margherita Moscardini, winners of the 3rd edition of 6ARTISTA. The exhibition is curated by Michele D’Aurizio, curator-in-residence at the Pastificio Cerere Foundation for 2012.

6ARTISTA – an educational program founded by the Civita Association and the Pastificio Cerere Foundation with the support of Allianz, to foster the professional growth of artists under 30 living in Italy – has come to represent an increasingly important opportunity for the winners, who are offered a high-level formational experience: both artists, in fact, completed two residencies over the course of 2012, in Rome at the Pastificio Cerere Foundation, and in Paris at the Cité Internationale des Arts, thanks to the collaboration of the Incontri Internazionali d’Arte.

Francesco Fonassi presents Kollaps, Aufstieg, a video installation conceived as a reflection on the human voice and its effects in space/time.

Margherita Moscardini, on the other hand, presents 1XUnknown, an ongoing project composed of a series of volumes, conceived as so many “kits,” that collect videos of monoliths filmed in long, fixed takes.
