TALK WITH ME
A group of very young artists, all recently graduated at IUAV (Istituto Universitario di Architettura di Venezia), go around the lagoon city in the spaces that host the exhibitions and collateral events of the Biennale. They meet as many of the artists as possible that participated in the Biennale through interviews and want to testify their presence live, intended not only as producers of the works on display, but also as authors of a poetic thought expressed with the word. RAM-radioartemobile promotes these loose encounters, hand to hand with artists of different generations and countries, under the gesture of the verbal meeting and cultural exchange. A further step in communication behind an art system that, rather, moves under the performative gesture of the public event. Instead, “Talk With Me” represents the attempt to create a space of cultural intimacy that permits artists to speak and listen to each other, in a dimension that excludes competition and includes a Socratic cadence
