Grazia Toderi - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Grazia Toderi's artworks bring into focus the ties between cosmic spectacle and earthly existence. Opera houses, stadiums, cities, television memories, stars and planets all are transformed into pulsating worlds of light. Within these luminous works, everyday life takes on a visionary quality. In her videos, the dome of the sky becomes a lens that puts infinity into focus, making it a direct protagonist that appears between the wings of theaters or in cities seen from above. The rotation of images on their axis is another motif of the spectacle staged by Grazia Toderi. Thus the narrative shifts to unlimited spaces, not subject to gravitational forces. The reflected light that shines on her figures highlights, instead, they mysterious ability of the eye to record even what is outside of its visual field. This book is the result of a complex project completed through the initiative of Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa of Venice, for the reopening of Gran Teatro La Fenice after the fire that destroyed it in 1996.
