Continua lo storico rapporto tra Lia Rumma e i grandi protagonisti dell’Arte Concettuale<\/strong>.
\nDopo David Lamelas, la\u00a0Galleria Lia Rumma di Milano<\/strong>\u00a0\u00e8 lieta di annunciare per l\u2019apertura della sua nuova stagione espositiva la mostra di\u00a0Victor Burgin<\/strong>, dal titolo\u00a0The Ideal City<\/strong><\/em>, che inaugurer\u00e0 gioved\u00ec\u00a025 settembre 2014<\/strong>.
\nVictor Burgin (Sheffield, England, 1941), che aveva gi\u00e0 tenuto la sua prima personale italiana nel 1972 proprio negli spazi della Galleria Lia Rumma di Napoli, presenta in questa mostra il lavoro inedito\u00a0The Ideal City<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0e due lavori storici,\u00a0H\u00f4tel Lat\u00f4ne<\/em>\u00a0(1982) e\u00a0Solito Posto<\/em>\u00a0(2008).
\nArtista e al contempo autore di saggi fondamentali sulla fotografia e sulla teoria dell\u2019arte, Burgin a partire dalla fine degli anni sessanta ha sviluppato la sua ricerca muovendosi costantemente tra pratica artistica e riflessione teorica. Questo \u201cterzo spazio\u201d (H. Bhabha, 1991), ovvero il luogo e l\u2019esito di questa oscillazione, \u00e8 divenuto il fondamento volutamente ambiguo\/mobile della sua opera che si \u00e8 dislocata di volta in volta nelle pagine di un libro o nello spazio di una galleria, richiedendo allo spettatore molto pi\u00f9 di un semplice atto percettivo.
\nIn questa prospettiva la fotografia, scelta come medium privilegiato, ha avuto molteplici valenze: \u00e8 stata un forte agente di corrosione dell\u2019autonomia modernista, ed inoltre ha consentito di riconfigurare un legame con il reale e di uscire dalle logiche analitiche di molte pratiche concettuali.
\nMa che si sia trattato dell\u2019appropriazione o del\u00a0detournement<\/em>\u00a0delle immagini pubblicitarie dei suoi primi lavori, o della rappresentazione dei ruoli sessuali nella storia dell\u2019arte e nei media, il lavoro di Burgin influenzato anche dagli studi di semiotica, cinema e psicoanalisi, ha indagato e decodificato la natura dell\u2019immagine nel definire i termini dominanti della rappresentazione.
\nPi\u00f9 di recente, Burgin ha indirizzato il suo discorso \u201cverbo-visuale\u201d verso l\u2019architettura e lo spazio psichico, ovvero sulla forza, sul potere che l\u2019architettura detiene nel modellare il mondo e il nostro immaginario inconscio.
\nInvitato da\u00a0Lia Rumma<\/strong>\u00a0a realizzare un lavoro specifico per Milano, Burgin ha progettato\u00a0The Ideal City<\/em>, La Citt\u00e0 Ideale, dove il titolo \u00e8 un esplicito riferimento al dipinto rinascimentale conservato al Museo di Urbino, simbolo di quell\u2019ideale urbano regolato da rigore geometrico e organizzazione prospettica, ma dove il suggestivo percorso delle associazioni generate da quell\u2019immagine conducono fino alle raffinate ed estranianti sequenze del film di Michelangelo Antonioni\u00a0La notte<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Victor Burgin<\/strong>\u00a0(Sheffield, England, 1941) \u00e8 uno dei pi\u00f9 eminenti artisti accademici del nostro tempo.\u00a0 Studia pittura al Royal College of Art di Londra (1962-65) e Filosofia a Yale (M.F.A., 1967). Attualmente \u00e8 Professore Emerito di \u201cHistory of Consciousness\u201d presso l\u2019Universit\u00e0 della California, Santa Cruz ed Emerito \u201cMillard Chair of Fine Art\u201d al Goldsmiths College, University of London.\u00a0 E\u2019 presente in importanti istituzioni quali The Metropolitan Museum and the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Corcoran Gallery, Washington DC; Museum of Contemporary Art e LA County Museum of Art, Los Angeles; The Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; The Tate Gallery, Tate Modern, e il Victoria and Albert Museum, di Londra; Centre Georges Pompidou, Parigi.\u00a0 \u00c8 autore di numerosi volumi che hanno notevolmente segnato il dibattito critico non solo americano. Ne ricordiamo alcuni:\u00a0Thinking Photography<\/em>\u00a0(1982),\u00a0Between<\/em>\u00a0(1986),\u00a0The End of Art Theory: Criticism and Postmodernity<\/em>\u00a0(1986),\u00a0In\/Different Spaces: Place and Memory in Visual Culture, Shadowed<\/em>\u00a0(1996);\u00a0The Remembered Film<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>(Reaktion, 2004);\u00a0Situational Aesthetics<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>(Leuven University Press, 2009);\u00a0Parallel Texts: interviews and interventions about art<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>(Reaktion, 2011). Gli ultimi esiti della sua ricerca artistica e teorica possono essere sintetizzati nel titolo del suo saggio: The Location of Virtual Experience,\u2019 in Annette Khun (ed.),\u00a0Little Madnesses: essays on D.W.Winnicott<\/em>\u00a0(I.B.Tauris, 2013).<\/p>\n

Continuing its historic relations with the great protagonists of\u00a0Conceptual Art<\/strong>, after David Lamelas, Galleria Lia Rumma in Milan is pleased to announce the opening of its new exhibition season withThe Ideal City<\/em><\/strong>, a solo show by\u00a0Victor Burgin<\/strong>, which will open on Thursday\u00a025 September 2014<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Victor Burgin (Sheffield, England, 1941), whose first solo show in Italy was in the spaces of Galleria Lia Rumma in Naples in 1972, is now showing a new creation,\u00a0The Ideal City<\/strong><\/em>, and two historical works,\u00a0H\u00f4tel Lat\u00f4ne<\/em>\u00a0(1982) and\u00a0Solito Posto<\/em>\u00a0(2008).
\nAn artist and the author of seminal essays on photography and on the theory of art, since the late sixties Burgin has been developing his artistic research, constantly moving between practice and theoretical reflections. This \u201cthird space\u201d (H. Bhabha, 1991), which is the place and outcome of this alternation, has become the deliberately ambiguous, ever-shifting foundation of his work. On each occasion it may appear in the pages of a book or in a gallery space, and it is much more than a simple act of perception by the viewer.
\nFrom this perspective, his preferred medium, photography, has acquired various meanings: it has powerfully corroded modernist autonomy, and has also made it possible to recreate a link with the real world and to abandon the analytical logic of many conceptual practices.
\nBut whether as a form of appropriation or the\u00a0hijacking<\/em>\u00a0of advertising images in his early works, or even the representation of sexual roles in the history of art and in the media, Burgin\u2019s work has also been influenced by his studies of semiotics, cinema and psychoanalysis. He has investigated and decoded \u201cthe agency of the image\u201d in defining the predominant terms of representation.
\nMore recently, Burgin has directed his verbal-visual discourse towards architecture and the space of the psyche, which is to say the power and impact of architecture in shaping the world and our unconscious imagination.
\nInvited by\u00a0Lia Rumma<\/strong>\u00a0to create a work especially for Milan, Burgin has designed\u00a0The Ideal City<\/em>, in which the title is an explicit reference to the Renaissance painting now in the Ducal Palace in Urbino. It is a symbol of the ideal city governed by geometric discipline and perspective, but also where the fascinating mental associations generated by the image lead all the way to the elegant but alienating sequences in Michelangelo Antonioni\u2019s film,\u00a0La Notte<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Victor Burgin<\/strong>\u00a0(Sheffield, England, 1941) is one of the most eminent academic artists of our age.\u00a0He studied painting at the Royal College of Art in London (1962-65) and Philosophy at Yale (MFA, 1967). He is currently Emeritus Professor of “History of Consciousness” at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and Emeritus Millard Chair of Fine Art at Goldsmiths College, University of London.

These include\u00a0Thinking Photography<\/em>\u00a0(1982),\u00a0Between<\/em>\u00a0(1986),\u00a0The End of Art Theory: Criticism and Postmodernity<\/em>\u00a0(1986),\u00a0In\/Different Spaces: Place and Memory in Visual Culture, Shadowed<\/em>\u00a0(1996);\u00a0<\/em>The Remembered Film<\/em>\u00a0<\/em>(Reaktion, 2004);\u00a0Situational Aesthetics<\/em>\u00a0(Leuven University Press, 2009);\u00a0Parallel Texts: interviews and interventions about art<\/em>\u00a0(Reaktion, 2011), The latest outcome of his artistic and theoretical research is summed up in the title of his essay: \u201cThe Location of Virtual Experience\u201d, in Annette Khun (ed.),\u00a0<\/em>Little Madnesses: Essays on D.W. Winnicott<\/em>, (I.B.Tauris, 2013).<\/p>\n
