Descripción de la Exposición

Ludovica Carbotta (*1982) realises her first solo exhibition in Switzerland at the Art Museum Graubünden. The Italian artist gets her inspiration from the collection of the museum that displays works of the Giacometti-dynasty to create a new group of sculptures, The Telamones, which refer to the idea of family. All families are composed of different personalities. The shapes that Ludovica Carbotta gives her sculptures are equally varied. In the process she endows every sculpture with its own age by developing different scenarios and interpretations for the related sculptures. If we apply the notion of age to an imaginary sculpture, it is fairly easy to imagine an old one. But what does a sculpture that corresponds to a young person or a child look like? Ludovica Carbotta allows herself to be guided by her own memory and creates sculptures that communicate with each other by means of signs and ornaments. As though the artist was giving time a physical form, the present, the future and the past stand next to each other in the exhibition as members of the same family. When Ludovica Carbotta refers to the quotation by Jorge Luis Borges “Mirrors and copulation are abominable because they increase the number of humans” she questions the concept of family as a desirable form of relationship, examines its role in society and places it in association with aspects such as identity or self-determination. As part of the exhibition on the 9th of May an action will take place in the natural surroundings of the Art Museum Graubünden, breaking up the architectural framing of the institutional presentation. Like a lost past, a member of the Telamon family has disappeared in the woods. The actress Annina Sedlácek together with Ludovica Carbotta, will lead a search party to find the lost individual and bring it back to the family circle. The Telamones have not overcome the loss of their past. Its disappearance has left them deeply scarred. While Stine Telamon comes to terms with this and looks calmly into the future, Felice Telamon is almost overwhelmed by his grief. He is aware of his fragile nature and avoids dealing with the past. Fausta Telamon feels responsible and tries to straighten him up regularly. Despite her congenital illness, which makes it impossible for her to walk upright, she is at peace with herself. Every night she dreams of being able to fly. She has inherited her bravery from Faustotsuaf Telamon. He owes his will to live to an old memory that constantly reminds him that there is something to preserve that lasts beyond transience
