Laura Vinci at Nara Roesler gallery
After her last solo exhibition at Nara Roesler Gallery, in 2007, Laura Vinci has participated in several national and international important events: in 2007, she participated in the exhibition Mono#Cromático, at Mario Sequeira Gallery, in Portugal; in 2008, she showed the installation Lux, at Capela do Morumbi, and participated in the exhibition Intempéries - O Fim do Tempo, at OCA; in 2009, she participated in the 10th International Cuenca Biennial, in Ecuador, and in the After Utopia – Museo Pecci, in Prato, Italy; in 2010, she took part in Riciclarti 2010 Cantiere Arte Ambientali, in Pádua, besides creating two installations for the Carpe Diem Arte e Pesquisa in Lisbon. Simultaneously, she did the scenery for the play Só, in 2009, and for the play O idiota, which received the prize for best staging from APCA [[State of São Paulo Art Critics Association]] and is one of the nominees for best scenery at the 2011 Shell Prize.
Laura Vinci returns to Nara Roesler Gallery with an exhibition that includes two installations and a set of seven metal engravings.
In the new space at the gallery’s entrance a site specific will by shown. It will be composed of three pendulums in stretched brass and a wall drawing. In another space, protected by a metal curtain, a slightly elevated marble floor occupies the gallery’s main salon. From a low relief built in the floor itself a haze will appear; it will be produced by a steam release system. The transformations and the time that goes by, which are seen through the fluid and subtle steam variations, propose a game that encourages contemplation and concentration. The white-colored room divided by the metal curtain contributes to the setting.
Between these two works, at the center of the gallery, seven 120 x 80 cm-large metal engravings from the series Desenhos de Caderno will be shown. They have few copies, seven each, and will be exhibited in its entirety for the first time.
Laura Vinci exhibition at Galeria Nara Roesler ends on 12th November 2011.
