PUBLIC ENNEMY
from January 12 to february 16, 2013

with Mat COLLISHAW, Zhang DALI, Mounir FATMI, Eric HUSSENOT, MALEONN, Joanna MALINOWSKA, Luc MATTENBERGER, Jean-Michel PANCIN, Jackie SUMELL, and VHILS (Alexandre FARTO)

Curator Barbara Polla wonders “What do you imprison in a gallery? Most of the time we put what we can’t see. Display what we can’t show elsewhere. Sometimes it is the world, life, street that is shown. Here, it is prison itself. Who is the public enemy? Is it the one who deserve the death sentence; the one we are often at a loss to know what to do with. Who is the public enemy, in France, in Norway, in United-States? Why do we imprison private enemies, even friends, birds? What’s the meaning for a prison, if there is a meaning at all?”

The Magda Danysz gallery invites Barbara Polla as a co-curator to the « Public Enemy» exhibition, a group show aiming at understanding who is ' the public enemy ' today through the questions of destruction, confinement or act of vandalism.

BOTTO E BRUNO
SOLO SHOW
From February 23 to March 30, 2013

Gianfranco BOTTO and Roberta BRUNO were born in Turin in 1963 and 1966 respectively. Their work deals with the urban environment, focusing especially on the suburbs and abandoned industrial areas. BOTTO E BRUNO prove their talent by the diversity of their work including, photography, drawing, collage, video, and music and their excellent achievements.

For the upcoming exhibition, Gallery Magda Danysz gives an overwhelming amount of support to this artistic duo. Upon entering the gallery the audience is automatically confronted with the environment of the artists whereby the external world dissolves.
