MICHELE DI MENNA
Society Actually Happening Art presents:
A Rise and Fall performed by Hands
17.07. – 08.08.2009, Opening 17.07.2009 at 8 pm
presented by Künstlerhaus Stuttgart and Hermes und der Pfau
at White Heat – Temporary Art Space
Lange Straße / Ecke Hospitalstraße, 70174 Stuttgart
“Where everything is crumbling, the way of the unknown remains”
The finishing part (from the last performance I made, finishing what I started)
From the point of unformed ambiguity
symmetry is solidified
a syncretical build up
beginning again
given a hand
getting the job done
a performance
framed
within frames
held together in mutual formation
with colours of gravitation
the first stays invisible and outlines all movements
the second
purple corona fragmented undulating instability
third
a prismatic ladder rising and becoming bound
fourth
to completing a rhythmic repetition, a vignette where
forms manifest and conclude
(Michele Di Menna)
