The new installation by Monica Bonvicini, specifically conceived for OGR on the occasion of Artissima 2019, continues her investigation into the interrelationships between architecture, power and gender issues, the right to space, dynamics of control and surveillance.
Bonvicini has started exhibiting her works internationally in the 1990s, with solo and group exhibitions in many of the most important artistic institutions and receiving important awards, including the Leone d’Oro at the Venice Biennale. Bonvicini’s works are dry and direct but imbued with multiple historical, political and social references.
Her works are always critically linked to the places in which they are exposed and are often interested in the ambiguity of language, problematizing the role of the spectator, and the limits, possibilities and contradictions linked to the idea of freedom.

Architecture, and Modernism in particular, has always been a source of inspiration for Brazilian photographer Mauro Restiffe. In his career the artist has traveled and captured the œuvre of well known architects around the world, from Philip Johnson to Oscar Niemeyer.
In his photos Restiffe reveals the unexpected combinations between architecture and landscape, indoors and outdoors, focusing on unobserved details and traces of human presence: architecture serves as stage for history, may it be public or private. Restiffe’s images are often embedded with historical value and present intimate perspectives on a Country’s history, such is the case of his well known series Empossamento (2003) and Oscar (2012). For his show at OGR Restiffe has taken his survey to Italy, researching the projects of Carlo Mollino, Piero Portaluppi, Franco Albini and Carlo Scarpa among others.
