Io Solo Ho Occhi Per Te
visioni anatomiche di barbara vistarini

Installazioni inedite prendono vita negli spazi di LINEA fino al 15 giugno 2013. É il primo di una serie di "Eventi nell'Evento" che ci accompagneranno fino all'inaugurazione di The New Florence Biennale

Protagonista del mondo dell'arte, affezionata al design, un passato importante nella moda. Se c'è un fil rouge che guida la vita di Barbara Vistarini si chiama creatività. Dopo la preview dell'installazione "BUSH", che sarà esposta alla Biennale di Venezia, nei locali di LINEA Spazio Arte Contemporanea (via delle Porte Nuove, 10 – Firenze) continua fino al 15 giugno 2013 la personale intitolata "I.S.H.O.P.T.". Guarda le foto
Si tratta del primo di una serie di "Events in the Event" che ci porterà fino al taglio del nastro della Nuova Florence Biennale 2013 (30 novembre-8 dicembre 2013).

"I.S.H.O.P.T.", acronimo di "Io Solo Ho Occhi Per Te", è un lavoro sul tempo modulato, reinterpretando materiale fotografico trovato in un vecchio archivio di famiglia. Il racconto di storie familiari si muove dietro un obiettivo macro, creando un loop fotografico che insinua nel fruitore con continuo rimando a ricordi infinitamente frammentati e reiterati.

Io Solo Ho Occhi Per Te
ANATOMICAL VISIONS OF BARBARA VISTARINI

Her installations come to life in Spazio LINEA until June 15th The first of a series of "Events in the Event" that leads the way towards the New Florence Biennale

Leading figure in the art world, passionate about design and an important past in fashion. If there is a common thread in Barbara Vistarini's life, it's creativity.

Look the photos
This exhibition is the first of a series of "Events in the Event" as an indicator to the New Florence Biennale.

Past and present merge in these works, such as Barbara's site-specific installations, the project titled "I.S.H.O.P.T.", acronym of "Io Solo Ho Occhi Per Te" (I only have eyes for you), is a series of works on modulated time, reinterpreting photographic material found in an old family archive. The story telling of a family that moves behind a macro lens, creating a photographic loop that moves with the viewer with a continuous reminder of memories infinitely fragmented and reiterated.

È NATA THE NEW FLORENCE BIENNALE

Con l'edizione 2013 la manifestazione inaugura un nuovo ciclo

Il 2013 rappresenta la più grande sfida per The New Florence Biennale: rinnovarsi completamente mantenendo la propria identità.
Per prepararsi a questa sfida The New Florence Biennale si dota di un nuovo logo, elaborato dal graphic designer Alessandro Mannocchi con la supervisione del nuovo Direttore Artistico Rolando Bellini e del Brand Identity Engineer Francois Zille.

Stessi colori, arancio e nero, ma look decisamente più contemporaneo per il nuovo logo, che preannuncia l'orientamento ai giovani della Nuova Florence Biennale. Quest'anno, infatti, l'obiettivo è puntato sugli artisti under 30. Non a caso il simbolo scelto rappresenta una porta su Palazzo Vecchio, a simboleggiare l'apertura che Firenze vuole dare ai nuovi alfieri dell'arte, ma anche il profondo legame stabilito con la città e la sua storia.

THE NEW FLORENCE BIENNALE IS BORN

With the 2013 Edition the Biennale inaugurates a new cycle

This year, 2013 represents the biggest challenge of The New Florence Biennale: to renew itself and maintain its own identity. In preparation of this challenge, The New Florence Biennale is equipped with a new logo, developed by the graphic designer Alessandro Mannocchi under the supervision of the new Artistic Director, Rolando Bellini and Brand Identity Engineer, François Zille. Same colors, black and orange, yet with an upgraded contemporary look, this new logo announces the youth-oriented approach of The New Florence Biennale. In fact, this year has a special focus directed towards artists Under 30. It is no coincidence that the selected icon represents a door on Palazzo Vecchio, a welcoming symbol that conveys the openness of the City of Florence to the new bearers of art, as well as representative of the close relationship with the city and its legacy.

FRANÇOIS ZILLE : BRAND IDENTITY ENGINEER DI THE NEW FLORENCE BIENNALE

Troubadour of Communication, Poet & Gelotologist Clown ...Since 1967

Visual Anthropologist & Language Engineer
Hermeneutist & Psycho-Philosopher
Décor Designer & Décor Therapist
Socio-Analyst & Senior Strategist
Brand Identity Engineer & Digital Era Allpervading Communication Director

Francois Zille is the proud son of a miner-cook-pastry chef from Friuli and a seasonal rice winnower from Ferrara. Since childhood he was constrained to the cult of language, of dialectics and excellence in order to survive as the son of Italian immigrants in postwar France. Meaning that he had to daily auto-shape a solid and mutant identity. Thanks to God, he was encouraged in this by design and creative Italic vein. And by his innate vocation to irreverence and rebellion, enriched by a very early encounter with San Francesco, Voltaire, François Rabelais, Antoine de Saint Exupéry and Frédéric Dard. The acquired expertise of Visual Anthropologist is a happy consequence of the polio contracted at age eleven and a half, since he was forced to imagine and visualize the food on the walls of his room in Hôpital de la Croix Rousse in Lyon (1958-1959).
The objective of this propitious rite was to exorcise the frustrations of his taste buds deprived of direct contact with the food because, for many months, he was fed only with a nasal gastric tube. Since then, FZ tends to express the strong hermeneutic and psycho-philosophical tension that characterizes him by the use of a logo-iconic language original and surprising, unique in the academic-professional-artistic realm. And his "Vignettes Psycho-Philosophiques" have shown in the field to have a high empathic impact, neo-cognitive and didactic-formative. François Zille began his professional career in 1963 as a Liftier at the Grand Hotel Continental in Via Manzoni in Milan, at the time renowned hotel of the stars of the Teatro alla Scala. Where he had the good fortune to meet and dialogue with mythical people such as Jean Villard, founder of TNP Théâtre National Populaire de Paris and of legendary Avignon Theatre Festival, Giorgio De Chirico, the co-father of the metaphysical movement, theatre actor Tino Buazzelli, and the great film star and intellectual Gian Maria Volonté. Entered by chance in advertising in 1967, shortly after Pia De Fazio and Bob Elliott hired him as their junior copywriter to work "in Agency" (CPV Kenyon & Eckart Rome 1969, Alitalia's New Logo & Refounding Campaign "Dimensions '70").
