Painting Beside Itself. A filmic collection composed of a series of daily moments. The artist divides the everyday into the most important theme of painting: the Landscape, the Nature, the Portrait and the Fiction.
Window Display Show #5
Pierfabrizio Paradiso's "Painting Beside Itself" will take place on the Windows fo D21 Kunstraum.
Pierfabrizio Paradiso's works are based on participatory projects, performances and
installation. Art represents for him a key for our human environment, which could be
used and handled by everyone. In "Painting beside itself" Paradiso divides the
Everyday into the most important Theme of Painting: the Landscape, the Nature, the
Portrait and the Fiction.
The filmic collection is composed from a series of daily moments in different urban
environments, italian small towns as well as big cities like Milan, Rotterdam and
Berlin.
Every time Pierfabrizio Paradiso is looking for an image, he tries to reset his
usual way of looking. He translates in this case the value, the grammar and the
composition of Painting into a tale of the Everyday within a research about the
motion picture, or real images in motion. He concentrates on Details and he tries to
shift the emphases.
This video archive is related with 2 quotes by Georges Perec and Martin
Kippenberger, printed on two different PVC-Banners and hanged in another window of
D21. The quotes reflect two different positions about the daily life, they express
at once a sort of banality and a revaluation of the Everyday and the Art.
So the question related to the practices in contemporary art with the dailies takes
a new meaning: What defines the everyday? And, are we able today to accept it, as it
is?
