LateRooms.com - Check Out Expanded Video at Rome's MAXXI
Released on: May 18, 2011, 7:59 am The MAXXI gallery in Rome is showcasing the work of several artists as part of its cross-media Expanded Video project. Running until June 5th 2011, the initiative aims to blur the line between listening and seeing, turning them into "analogous and equivalent episodes". Masbedo, Jacob TV, Martha Colburn and People Like Us are the artists taking part in the event. Among the pieces due to be shown are a study of relationships between men and women, a stop-motion piece about killing dictators from history and a series of familiar scenes from movies that have had their linear narrative removed. In a statement, the organisers said: "The works of the selected artists, in which the diverse idioms fuse and integrate perfectly, are linked by a shared emancipation from the ties and conventions of the individual media." Admission to the MAXXI costs €11 (£9.65), although there are concessions. The arts space is open from 11:00 to 19:00 local time daily, except for Thursday and Saturday when it closes at 22:00. The gallery is closed on Monday. A number of live performances have also been planned.
