72 opere in una location unica.<\/h3>\n

Curato per il settimo anno consecutivo da Gianni Jetzer<\/strong>, il settore presenter\u00e0 una vasta gamma di progetti, dai pezzi del passato alle opere create appositamente per Art Basel. Parteciperanno artisti famosi ed\u00a0emergenti, tra cui: Matthew Barney, Yto Barrada, Daniel Buren, Horia Damian, Camille Henrot, Jenny Holzer, Mark Leckey, Lee Ufan, Inge Mahn, Lygia Pape, Jon Rafman, Michael Rakowitz, Nedko Solakov, Martine Syms, Barth\u00e9l\u00e9my Toguo e Yu Hong<\/strong>.
\nArt Basel, il cui Lead Partner \u00e8 UBS, ha luogo a Basel dal 14 giugno al 17 giugno 2018. Unlimited \u00e8 la piattaforma di Art Basel<\/strong> per progetti di grandi dimensioni, che offre alle gallerie l’opportunit\u00e0 di mostrare installazioni, sculture monumentali, proiezioni video, pitture murali, serie fotografiche e performance artistiche che trascendono il tradizionale stand dell’arte.
\nPer Unlimited nel 2007, Daniel Buren ha trasformato le scale mobili che conducono al piano superiore del padiglione 1 in una scultura cinetica intitolata “Passage de la Couleur, 26 secondes et 14 centi\u00e8mes”. L’opera \u00e8 stata acquistata dall’ente fiera Basel e oggi \u00e8 parte integrante della sala espositiva. Con Unlimited quest’anno che si svolge al piano superiore del padiglione 1, i lavori di Buren del 2007 faranno parte dell’area di ingresso per l’edizione di quest’anno. Rispondendo a questo lavoro precedente, Unlimited si aprir\u00e0 con “Una cosa tira l’altra” di Buren, una passerella aerea decorata con strisce simili a quelle che sono state usate sulla scala mobile nel 2007. L’ampia piattaforma composta da ponteggi creer\u00e0 nuovi modi per navigare nello spazio, consentendo ai visitatori di vedere le opere circostanti da punti di vista unici e inaspettati.<\/p>\n

Altre opere da non perdere salienti includono le strisce di tessuto di Polly Apfelbaum<\/strong> che si combinano per formare un dipinto dai colori vivaci; L’enclave tropicale di Rashid Johnson<\/strong> contiene vari elementi inaspettati, dalle sculture realizzate con burro di karit\u00e8 ai ritratti video; Il monumentale dipinto di Katherine Bernhardt<\/strong> con uccelli tropicali, robot affettuosi e mozziconi di sigarette, che al tempo stesso redige e riassume la cultura moderna e l’artista stessa; un’installazione multimediale interattiva di Nedko Solakov<\/strong> comprendente nove divani nelle forme dei nove caratteri cinesi che costituiscono la frase “Mi manca il socialismo, forse”; e il dipinto su grande scala di Yu Hong<\/strong> raffigurante una famosa fiaba cinese ampiamente citata sia nella storia dell’arte moderna cinese che nelle narrative comuniste cinesi.<\/p>\n

Unlimited: Presenting 72 premier works in a unique setting.<\/h3>\n

This year’s edition of Unlimited will consist of 72 large-scale projects, presented by galleries participating in the fair. Curated for the seventh consecutive year by Gianni Jetzer, Curator-at-Large at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington D.C., the sector will feature a wide range of presentations, from seminal pieces from the past to work created especially for Art Basel. Renowned as well as emerging artists will participate, including: Matthew Barney, Yto Barrada, Daniel Buren, Horia Damian, Camille Henrot, Jenny Holzer, Mark Leckey, Lee Ufan, Inge Mahn, Lygia Pape, Jon Rafman, Michael Rakowitz, Nedko Solakov, Martine Syms, Barth\u00e9l\u00e9my Toguo and Yu Hong. Art Basel, whose Lead Partner is UBS, takes place at Messe Basel from June 14 to June 17, 2018. Unlimited, Art Basel’s unique platform for large-scale projects, provides galleries with the opportunity to showcase installations, monumental sculptures, video projections, wall paintings, photographic series and performance art that transcend the traditional art-fair stand. For Unlimited in 2007, Daniel Buren transformed the escalators leading to the upper floor of Hall 1 into a kinetic sculpture titled ‘Passage de la Couleur, 26 secondes et 14 centi\u00e8mes’. The work was bought by Messe Schweiz and\u00a0today forms an integral part of the exhibition hall. With Unlimited this year taking place on the upper floor of Hall 1, Buren’s work from 2007 will form part of the entrance area for this year’s edition. Responding to this earlier work, Unlimited will open with Buren’s ‘Una cosa tira l\u2019altra’, an aerial walkway decorated with stripes similar to those that have been used on the escalator in 2007. The extensive platform made up of scaffolding will create new ways to navigate the space, allowing visitors to view the surrounding works from unique and unexpected points of view.<\/p>\n

Further highlights include Polly Apfelbaum’s<\/strong> strips of textile that are combined to form a colorfully woven painting; Rashid Johnson’s<\/strong> tropical enclave containing various unexpected elements from sculptures made with shea butter to video portraits; Katherine Bernhardt\u2019s<\/strong> monumental painting with tropical birds, cuddly robots and cigarette stubs, which at once editorializes and summarizes modern culture and the artist herself; an interactive multimedia installation by Nedko Solakov<\/strong> comprising nine sofas in the shapes of the nine Chinese characters constituting the phrase \u2018I miss Socialism, maybe\u2019; and Yu Hong’s<\/strong> large-scale painting depicting a famous Chinese fable widely cited in both modern Chinese art history and Chinese Communist narratives. The work focuses on how the Socialist narrative still perseveres in Chinese society and explores the ways its ideology corresponds to the visual legacy of Soviet Socialist Realist heritage.<\/p>\n
