Talk & Drink I

In collaborazione con Accademia Unidee e ArtEz -University of the Arts (NL), Talk & Drink è una serie di presentazioni e conversazioni gratuite con artisti, curatori e studiosi, in compagnia di un bicchiere di vino.

Accademia Unidee accoglie a Cittadellare-Fondazione Pistoletto un gruppo di studenti d’arte di BEAR, il programma di Belle Arti della ArtEZ University of the Arts di Arnhem (NL). Durante il periodo di residenza, Accademia Unidee organizza una serie di conferenze informali aperte sia agli artisti in residenza che al pubblico in generale. È un’opportunità per gli studenti di esplorare temi di ricerca artistica e di entrare in dialogo diretto con professionisti contemporanei. Ma anche un modo per il pubblico di capire meglio cosa fanno i singoli artisti, il loro lavoro e la loro identità.

Gli eventi di Talk & Drink saranno tenuti in lingua inglese.

Episodio 1:
For the first Talk & Drink of this year Accademia Unidee and Spazio Hydro welcome the painter and multidisciplinary artist Alice Visentin.

Alice Visentin practice is grounded in an understanding of reality as a mutable dimension, constantly transformed by the interactions between bodies and words, dreams and murmurs carried by the wind. Through her work she explores the generative capacity of imagination and the possibility of accessing other levels of sensing and experiencing according to an intuitive understanding of things which appears possible only thanks to the encounter with the other.

Her work has been exhibited in various institutions and galleries including Lateral Roma (Rome), Almanac Project (Turin), Italian Cultural Institute of Paris (Paris), Tile Project Space (Milan), Castello di Rivoli (Turin), CRC Foundation (Cuneo), Museo MACTE (Termoli), Palazzo delle Esposizioni (Rome) and Cité internationale des arts (Paris).
Visentin has won a fellowship in Visual Arts at the American Academy in Rome for the year 2023.

What’s Talk & Drink?
Accademia Unidee welcomes in Cittadellare-Fondazione Pistoletto a group of art students from BEAR, the Fine Arts program from ArtEZ University of the Arts, Arnhem (NL). During their residency period, Accademia Unidee organizes a set of informal talks open to both artists in residence and the general public.
Talk & Drink is a series of presentations and free conversations with artists, curators, and scholars, in the company of a glass of wine. It’s an opportunity for the students to explore topics of artistic research and enter in direct dialogue with contemporary practitioners. But also a way for the public to better understand what individual artists do, their work, and their identities.
