Description

Rethinking Everything is the result of an exhibition conceived shortly before the pandemic began and which was given new meaning in the context of the isolation that began in March 2020. It proposes returning to a set of works made before the crisis that can be read in the key of the present; works that question the relationship of man with nature, the radical differences in the distribution of wealth, the existence of inequalities, the meaning of the domestic, isolation, loneliness, the forms of memory and feminism as a practice and as a theory that anticipated all these questions.

The works gathered in this book are accompanied by Andrea Giunta's insightful analysis, which highlights that art images are archives of experiences: when we approach them from new contexts, from different questions, their latent meanings are stirred. Likewise, the juxtaposition of images, their proximity in space, creates a zone of contact; a new iridescence arises in what we see. Proximity provokes unexpected flashes of brilliance in the image.

If an art exhibition is an experience that engages all our senses, Rethinking Everything replicates that possibility. In this beautiful and innovative book, whose design matches the intensity of the works it contains, the reader will also have the opportunity to encounter the voices of the participating artists. It is, therefore, a multifaceted experience that combines an analysis of contemporary art, works by artists representative of its trends, and their reflections on their work and the world we share.
