DELLORO ARTE CONTEMPORANEA - BERLIN OPENING
Saturday
26th February - h. 19:00
Karl Liebknecht Straße 5
Delloro Contemporary Art is pleased to announce the opening of its new venue in Berlin, in the pedestrian area behind the Museum Island within the modern City Quartier DomAquarèe.
The main gallery, an open space of 250 sq meters, is placed beside an entirely visible project space of 70 sq meters. This will allow to present site-specific projects in parallel with the ongoing exhibition.
At the opening, Carlo Bernardini, who already had several collaborations with Delloro Contemporary Art, will present Vacuum, his latest installation in which the prospective plans of the gallery are re-designed using luminous optic fibers.
At the same time, the project space will host the installation Filament of the Hungarian artist Bálint Bolygó, an interaction of video projections and mechanical processes connected to the creation of images and lights.
Galerie Delloro Contemporary Art ist erfreut die Eröffnung ihrer neuen Filiale in Berlin, im Dom Aquaree, unweit der Museums Insel bekannt zu geben.
Neben der Hauptgalerie, einem offenem Raum von 250 Quadratmetern, gibt es einen von allen Seiten einsehbaren Projektraum von 70 qm, der für raumbezogene Installationen, die parallel zu den laufenden Ausstellungen stattfinden, zur Verfügung steht.
Carlo Bernardini, der bereits mehrfach mit Delloro Arte Contemporanea zusammengearbeitet hat, wird mit seiner neuesten Installation "Vacuum", die mittels optischer Leuchtfasern den Grundriss des Raumes neu definiert, die neuen Galerieräume einweihen.
Parallel dazu zeigt der ungarische Künstler Balint Bolygo im Projektrau seine Installation "Filament" - eine Interaktion mit Videoprojektionen und mechanischen Prozessen, die sich auf die Erzeugung von Bildern und Licht bezieht.
Delloro Arte Contemporanea è lieta di annunciare l'apertura della sua nuova sede di Berlino, nell'area pedonale alle spalle dell'Isola dei Musei nel moderno City Quartier DomAquarèe.
La galleria principale, un open space di 250 mq, sarà affiancata da un project space di 70 mq interamente a vista, che permetterà di presentare di volta in volta progetti site-specific paralleli alla mostra in corso.
Per l'inaugurazione Carlo Bernardini, artista già legato alla galleria da numerose collaborazioni, presenterà la sua ultima installazione dal titolo Vacuum, ridisegnando i piani prospettici della galleria attraverso le fibre ottiche luminose.
Il project space ospiterà invece l’installazione Filament dell’artista ungherese Balint Bolygo, un’interazione tra proiezioni video e processi meccanici legati alla produzione di immagini e luci.

CARLO BERNARDINI was born in Viterbo (Italy) in 1966, since 1996 he has been planning and working on big optical fibre installations, stainless steel and optical fibre sculptures-installations. He is a three time winner of the Overseas Grantee award of the Pollock Krasner Foundation in New York receiving grants in 2000, in 2005 and in 2010, in 2002 wins the Targetti Art Light Collection White Sculpture award. Among his most important international exhibitions it is worth mentioning the great exhibition in 2004 at Museo Paço Imperial in Rio De Janeiro and in 2007 and the presentation of the installation Event Horizon at the Swing Space in New York. In 2008 he also presents a gigantic environmental installation in the Umbracle of the Ciudad De Las Artes y de Las Ciencias in Valencia, placing his light geometries inside a dialogue with the renowned architectural work of Santiago Calatrava. In 2010 he presented his fiber optic light installations in Amsterdam, The Hague, and in Berlin, for the Art Light Domaquaree. He was also invited to exhibit in the renowed Arnaldo Pomodoro Foundation in Milan, and in Tourin for Luci d'Artista, the most important outdoor art exhibition in Italy. |
BÁLINT BOLYGÓ works across sculpture and design, combining artistic imagination, invention, science, mechanics, engineering and various installation techniques to create processes that reveal natural phenomena. Practical solutions to physical, structural and nature’s challenges of the everyday environment -friction, weight, tension, compression, sound, movements and light - are the very elements that give an idiosyncratic aesthetic to his innovative works. Bolygó is continuously involved with various institutions - London’s Kinetica Museum, the Architecture Association, Bishopsgate Institute, the Royal Institution and the International Kepes Society dedicated to light art - to name but a few as well exhibiting wildly nationally and internationally. His inter-disciplinary interests and activities lead him to work on several commissions, including the recently completed project ‘Aurora’, a permanent moving light sculpture for a newly opened five-star Town Hall Hotel in East London. |
