DIALOGHI FRA ARTE E SCIENZA 6 Interpretazioni libere
UN PROGETTO DI UN’IDEA DI MARE DIALOGHI FRA ARTE E SCIENZA 6 Interpretazioni libere TI www.bellatieditore.com The idea The idea is blue. A colour that throughout the history of art has had enormous significance and given many a sleepless night to both artists and philosophers: from creators of the Byzantine mosaic, to Antonello from Messina, from Picasso to Klein, from Plato to Kant, Usseri to Wittgenstein. A colour that is a veritable metaphor evident to us through the blue sky and sea. And it’s notably the sea and all its tones that occupy this particular exhibition, a theme which brings together the work of a range of scholars committed to the investigation of seas and oceans, problems and secrets, disasters and promises. Because we are born in water and it attracts us, but we understand little of what it is that this compelling marvel - the sea itself – represents. And even though we are regularly reminded that for decades we have been polluting and destroying it, ordinary people continue to regard it in a picture postcard sense, sent back casually from a holiday resort. Whereas the sea is so much more, and indeed represents an undiscovered continent. And this exhibition is an attempt to communicate to the general public a rather different vision of the sea. Through raising consciousness and knowledge, but also via wonder and potential. Because after all dreamers are forever straining to find that elusive island on which, one fine day, they might land. And with luck they’d like to discover it both luxuriant and sundrenched. Fabio Trincardi and Anna Caterina Bellati THE ARTISTS Stefano Bombardieri (Italy) sculptor Monica Marioni (Italy) painter and performer Ugo Riva (Italy) sculptor Marialuisa Tadei (Italy) painter and performer Fulvia Zambon (USA) painter Dania Zanotto (Italy) sculptress Un’idea di mare (3) Research themes ISMAR conducts research in polar, oceanic and Mediterranean regions, focusing on the following themes the evolution of oceans, the influence of climate change, submarine habitats and ecology, and the increasing pollution of coastal and deepsea environments, natural and anthropogenic factors impacting economically and socially on coastal systems from pre-history to the industrial epoch, and fisheries science. This is one of the main institutional interests of ISMAR, and is aimed at managing and understanding fishery-related problems. This is a multidisciplinary science involving oceanography, marine biology, ecology, population dynamics. WHALES BY STEFANO BOMBARDIERI An exhibition focusing on the sea in order to remind a Public of differing ages and cultures of its enormous importance within our daily lives, and contrast its age-old presence within the context of man’s short history; and where better to start perhaps than with that most magical and legendary inhabitant of the deep waters, which has featured over many an era within literature - the whale. Stefano Bombardieri has chosen the courtyard of the Caserma Carnoldi in which to mount his enormous fibreglass installation, composed of three huge whales caught and hung upside Un’idea di mare (4) down. Almost as if crucified on a thousand year-old Golgotha where the Human Race has sacrificed each and every breed of animal to his own sole advantage. The whales created by the sculptor from Brescia sum up all the rare qualities that over the centuries we have attributed to them. They appear monsters to battle with, personifying our fears of all things huge and unknown, recounting stories and tales etched into the collective memory. From those of a biblical nature, to that of Jonah or Pinocchio: from tales of Melville and the embattled Captain Ahab to those within the Physiologius, regarded as the first major book dedicated to the Natural World. But they also demonstrate the way in which over the years an aspect, a particular fringe of humanity has had such an anthropic impact on the planet that the survival of almost all living things has been endangered. dall’alto from the top: Esercizi di tecnica giapponese 2009 vetroresina, ferro, corda fiberglass, iron, rope Gaia e la Balena 2003 vetroresina, terracotta fiberglass, terracotta Un’idea di mare (5) The oceanography ISMAR investigates the structure and dynamics of the ocean and how it interacts with the biological and chemical processes leading to eutrophication and hypoxia/anoxia. A key goal is understanding the interaction of the ocean with the atmosphere and the seafloor, across its upper and lower boundaries. The research is carried out by combining observational and model-based approaches. Ocean observations come from research cruises, fixed stations and remote sensing. Fantastic sea cruises by MONICA MARIONI The young painter and performer from Vicenza explores feelings and emotions of the individual composing them painstakingly in photo sets in which they take on an new life within an almost dreamlike scenario. For the exhibition ‘An Idea of the Sea’ Monica Marioni is presenting an installation on the ground and two photographic collages - Lambda printed on Dibond - which reconstruct the idea of a ‘water world’ within which female figures like nymphs glide effortlessly and inquisitively in the midst of objects, animals and unidentified minerals. Marioni’s probing introduces the idea of a voyage through the mind all along the bottom of the sea where you might encounter forests of algae and coral woodland.

The team also studies active tectonic structures and related geo-hazards within the Mediterranean region as well as submarine volcanoes and hydrothermal processes. The sedimentology team investigates coastal and abyssal environments to determine the role of alongshore, cascading and contour currents, as well as storms, turbidity currents and sediment failure, in shaping the architecture of continental margins. The gods the sea by UGO RIVA There was a time when the gods had control of the Universe. Nothing was allowed to happen that they, the all-powerful, had not decreed. And men could only stand by and watch in terror the ensuing catastrophes. Tsunami and other overwhelming events could wipe out whole empires and cities in an instant. For some years now Ugo Riva has been sculpting Un’idea di mare (8) figures plucked from mythology and history, epic tales and legends. His headless angels and other hieratic figures resurrect the splendour of a time-honoured art dating back to that of the most ancient religions. In the courtyard of the Caserma Carnoldi the impassive gods created for the exhibition are returning the sea and its very physical nature back to a distant age, when the caprice of fortune coupled with the great courage of ancient heroes plotted the fate of Man himself. The very basis of the sculpture, produced using boxes containing seashells, discoveries, wreckage in terracotta which the sea has transformed into a depository in the form of collective memory. And the bronze angel positioned at the entrance warns of believing that the age of the rulers is a thing of the past. They are still observing and commenting on us even now. dall’alto from the top: Come imperturbabili dei 2010 bronzo bronze Angelo / Polena 2010 bronzo bronze Un’idea di mare (9) Ecosystems and bio-geochemistry ISMAR has a long tradition of focusing on the comprehensive study of biodiversity of marine systems from transitional to deep-sea habitats. Particular attention is devoted to the study of phenology and the structure and functioning of plankton and benthic communities in relation to the environment, the climate and human impact. Special emphasis is laid on the bio-geochemical cycling of key elements in the water column, especially those associated with global warming and climate change (e.g. carbon storage). The gardens of the sea by MARIALUISA TADEI The painter and performer from Rimini has reconstructed a sea garden inhabited by magnificently coloured crustaceans and moluscs which in order to resist genetic mutation within the ecosystem are encrusted in a type of glittering mosaic produced in Murano and have also fortified their framework with fibreglass or wherever necessary with bronze. Some have taken refuge in transparent boxes where they swim in a protective oil, a type of amniotic fluid where they rebuild their lives and families. Marialuisa Tadei has, as ever, created fascinatingly soft and almost intangible scenarios, from gauze, feathers, lights and painted glass. Under the colonnade of the Caserma Carnoldi she’s constructed an aerial installation which offers a beguiling vision of the seabed. Un’idea di mare (10) dall’alto from the top: Intuizioni marine 2010 bronzo, plexiglass olio bronze, plexiglas, oil Polipo e Aculeus 2010 vetroresina, mosaico fiberglass, mosaic Un’idea di mare (11) alien species ISMAR is also concerned with climate and human-driven ecosystem variability, with attention also paid to the issue of alien species. ISMAR research activities include the evaluation of primary production in the ocean and the examination of plankton and microbial dynamics. Special emphasis is laid on the bio-geochemical cycling of key elements in the water column. Baby Carriages and save domino by FULVIA ZAMBON The American painter takes up the challenge within this particular The American painter takes up the challenge within this particular exhibition and adopts two themes she holds most dear, Save Domino and Baby carriages, employed here to afford some insight into the sea. It’s in this way that one of her feminine creatures, usually crying out against social injustice or the extreme boredom of our disenchanted world, this time tackles the problem of the pollution and the destruction of the oceans; whilst the distressing Baby carriages into which the artist generally places distorted babies deprived of arms or legs, or indeed the disturbing suggestion of missing babies not capable of being brought into the world, in ‘An Idea of the Sea’ the prams will contain coral and seashells, algae and flowers from the seabed. Hanging at the entrance to the Caserma Carnoldi, two large paintings will suggest to visitors that we are not talking solely about the sea. We are confronting the absurd situation where the Human Race quite wrongly believes that it is master of the world. Un’idea di mare (12) dall’alto from the top: Sidecar to Superga 2006 olio su tela oil on canvas Save Domino - Raising Cranes 2010 olio su tela oil on canvas Save Domino - Iwona 2 2009 olio su tela oil on canvas Un’idea di mare (13) The aquaculture Aquaculture and mariculture represent another important topic for ISMAR. Designed to supplement the increasing exploitation of wild fisheries, they involvecultivating freshwater and saltwater organisms such as finfish, molluscs and crustaceans under controlled conditions. The sea’s shamanic clothing by DANIA ZANOTTO Dania Zanotti’s shamatic garments saturated in things of a ‘profanely sacred’ nature piece together the history of mankind through their obsession with perpetuity. For this particular exhibition the performer from Treviso weaves material in sea-inspired colours making use of resins, glues, strands of wool, iron, copper, more seashells, broken piece of glass, stones, pebbles: objects all discovered along the beach; the end result is a bulky yet magical garment. It’s aiming to suggest a habitat unknown to man, whose knowledge of the sea is limited to the superficial and who knows little of the structure of its very life and challenges, the colours and sounds of an alien existence made up of subterranean lands and deserts. Dangling and waving in the porch of the Caserma Carnoldi, shimmering in the shadow in their lightness - so painstakingly stitched together by the artist – are all the treasures uncovered along the shoreline.challenges, the colours and sounds of an alien existence made up of subterranean lands and deserts.

She was born near Treviso in 1972. Having graduated in statistics she then decided to abandon her career in senior management to dedicate herself to art. In 2004 she was discovered by the international curator Mrs. Antonina Zaru, who runs the Capricorno Gallery and has been the collaborator behind the success of important artists like Frangi, Pignatelli, Nam June Paik. Last year Marioni took part in Detounement Venise 2009, collateral event of 53 Biennale d'Arte, with the installation Ego. During 2010 13 of her artworks are on show at Molino Stucky Hilton Venice Hotel.
