The
exhibition is the third phase of a research that all through the year 2014 has
focused on the concept of "phantom as a metaphor of art", in which
art itself becomes a representation and a metaphor, besides being an instrument
to explore the world.
The
exhibition, meant as a homage to Luís Buñuel's film making of surreal
subversion of codes, presents – in an
empty white space – pictorial and graphic works, video and audio installations,
photos, theatre performances, moving from the Asinara prison to the social and
environmental changes in Palestine, from self-questioning about identity and
freedom to reflections about the disruption of illusions and hopes in the
second half of the 20th century, along with the recording of children's voices
imitating wolf's howling. Yet, the light touch of irony which has always
connotated Museo Teo in its approach to art and to the real world is never
missing.
