Van zondag 15 april tot 15 juli 2012 zal in het Palazzo Grassi in Venetië een solotentoonstelling gaan van de Zwitserse beeldhouwer Urs Fischer onder de titel MADAME FISSCHER. Let op, hoe lekker apart: madame en Fisscher met 2x ‘s’ [hier]
Er zullen 30 werken van hem vanaf eind ’90-iger jaren te zien zijn.
In een voorbeschouwing in The Wallstreet Journal (ja, ja, kunst is geld) is te lezen:
“Upstairs, on the piano nobile, where preparations are further along, there is a faint air of tension among the curators and assistants as they assemble the exhibits. Caroline Bourgeois, Palazzo Grassi's curator for this exhibition, is looking on anxiously as a group of handlers piece together "Spinoza Rhapsody," a huge, swooping length of what looks rather like a section of intestines (darmen). Each piece, which will be suspended from the ceiling on invisible threads, is being laboriously slotted together and propped up on wooden supports, according to a detailed plan, over which the handlers are constantly arguing. They will do this for the next two days.” [Hier]
Het gaat over dit ‘kunstwerk’ waarover ik op 23 augustus 2008 het blog had: "Spinoza Rhapsody" van Urs Fischer.
