FORUM MARCO BRUZZONE

When

Opening
19:00, 10. June 2010

Each month our residency guests will present their own work, a chosen theme, a current interest or present their residency project. Our June resident guest is artist Marco Bruzzone, from Italy, but based in Berlin, Germany.

Bruzzone will talk about previous projects, what he will do in Bergen during June and also show a surprise in this presentation.

He describes his works as interdisciplinary, and much of his art is invisible or not shown in public at all. His practice consists of discussions, curating, collaborating, cooking and teaching, which does not make for consistency and prescribed logic, easy statements or heroism.

During his residency he will create a new set of sculptures based on the place and new relationships, and do research for possible future invitations to artists to participate in his exhibition making practice.
