islands never found

until June 13th 2010 :

group show at Palazzo Ducale, Genova, Italy :
“Isole Mai Trovate | Islands Never Found”
Leading, internationally renowned contemporary artists interpret their very own islands never found through a series of extraordinary works – some never before exhibited. Installations, videos, photographs, sculptures, drawings and paintings take the visitor on a journey, where each island – a metaphor for life and constant exploration – raises questions and doubts about the very meaning of life.
The artists taking part in this project have embarked on a journey through uncharted waters, on a never-ending voyage, continually haunted by the possibility that the destination might in fact be a non-place,a utopia, a simple territory of desire – and therefore beyond reach.

curators : Lorand Heygi, Katarina Koskina
