Vettor Pisani

Galerie Mario Iannelli, Berlin

A long-lasting show produced throughout fourty years by artist. Since his first exhibition in 1970 'Masculine, Feminine and Androgynous: Incest and Cannibalism in Marcel Duchamp', Pisani constructs scenes of an ideal memory theatre combining knowledge, gender and history. The exhibition presents a set of recent works crossing several tecniques, from installation to sculpture, from collage to digital assemblage, including also a series of works on paper inspired by the video performance 'Tentativo di volo' executed by Gino de Dominicis in 1969.


comunicato stampa

A long-lasting show produced throughout fourty years by an illusionist, visionary, trickster, liar, mercurial artist. Since his first exhibition in 1970 “Masculine, Feminine and Androgynous: Incest and Cannibalism in Marcel Duchamp” Vettor Pisani constructs scenes of an ideal memory theatre combining knowledge, gender and history in an illuminating making, a dowsing blob, a fractal geometry, a museum of global culture, a museum of the nothingness as a kaleidoscope of rubble and debris completely arranged with mocking, dissonant, irreverent energies in bizarre and personal contexts vibrating as an ironic undermining of tradition.

In the Rome of Fellini, Pasolini and Ferreri, Vettor Pisani, together with Gino de Dominicis and Carmelo Bene, shares a common interest in regard to the invisibile and the supernatural. In 1972 he participates in Documenta V where he exhibits “lo Scorrevole”.

Struck by Duchamp’s work, as the major themes in his work show, Androgyny, Virginity, Bachelor Machines, Pisani forces an unusual path in the labyrinth of art museums where he wisely chooses and upsets with arrogance and irony the most secret icons of that world associating himself with partners of the past: Duchamp, Klein, Beuys and then Bellmer, Bocklin, Khnopff.

The frozen work of the loved artists becomes an assimilated language able to get unlikely directions, an acrobatic rewriting of its own history, generating impossibile dreams floating in between ripetition and clonation. The artist builds a bright night in a dull night, a dream-sea in order to trap the adverse gods, a coin of the soul, linking the self to the other, moving from uniformity to multiplicity blasting the key of recognition.

The con-fusion of self with the other is such inherent that often he neglects biographies and bibliographies, inventing, from time to time, far-fetched stories and romances. So the line giving the exhibition’s title “Mein Herz ist ein dunkler Abgrund” means Vettor Pisani speaking in the shoes of Oedipus… “The nature is the wild beast of God. My mind is an immense and tragic place. My heart is a dark abyss”.

The exhibition presents a unique and harmonic set of recent works crossing several tecniques, from installation to sculpture, from collage to digital assemblage, including also a series of works on paper inspired by the video performance “Tentativo di volo” executed by Gino de Dominicis in 1969.
