MASSIMO is thrilled to present “Zanzare”, Andrea Artemisio‘s first solo show, from 14th of October to 30th of October at Via Degli Scipioni 7 in Milan. For the occasion, an unreleased short film, whose title matches the event, offers glimpses of the everyday life of a fictitious cemetery, where an unexpected event disturbs the daily routine.
“The only sound I remember is that of mosquitoes. I was a child and my father used to take me to visit my mother’s grave. Of those afternoons, this is all that has remained in my memory.”
The movie, evoking familiar feelings, brings together characters and atmospheres typical of Artemisio’s work, characterized by a never-ending search for what is immediate and spontaneous. The lack of sound and grey tones recalls and emphasizes the idea of suspension.
