Dear Shaded Viewers,
MUSEUM OF UNNATURAL HISTORY , Room XIII Fish and Amphibia
Sept. 25 / Nov. 11, 2008 Paolo Tonin Contemporary Art Gallery, Turin
Opening: Thursday 25 Sept., 7 p.m.
A myriad fish, mutant creatures with their silvery, many-coloured glint, that literally invade the main hall.
In their joint composition, they give shape to a big luminous being giving off the sounds of the drowned planet.
Imaginary, yet not impossible, species inviting one to dive into the captivating atmosphere of another possible world.
Artist Dario Ghibaudo, who has been working since 1993 on the notion of genetic contamination between different living species, presents the latest inclusion in his MUSEUM OF UNNATURAL HISTORY, a vast project that has now reached Room XIII.
materials: polyurethane resin, silver, leaves, seeds.
