Ep.2: open-end. Marlene Dumas à Venise
En février et mars 2022, les peintures de Marlene Dumas arrivent enfin à Venise. Le hall bardé de colonnes du Palazzo Grassi est rempli des grandes caisses renfermant les œuvres, en provenance de musées et de collections privées du monde entier. Commence alors la préparation d’"open-end", la première grande exposition monographique de Dumas en Italie. La commissaire d’exposition nous raconte la genèse de cet événement, tandis que le responsable du montage est chargé d’accueillir les œuvres et de les organiser. Entre-temps, Marlene Dumas arrive à Venise pour suivre de près les travaux. Son œuvre est nourrie de ses lectures passionnées de poésies et de romans et par son culte des images. Parmi la centaine d’œuvres exposées, des portraits de Charles Baudelaire, de Pasolini et de Marilyn Monroe…
Avec la participation de Marlene Dumas, Caroline Bourgeois, Marco Ferraris, Donatien Grau, Elisabeth Lebovici.
From The Podcast
Una specie di tenerezza
Marlene Dumas tra parole e immagini. In occasione della grande mostra "open-end" presentata da Palazzo Grassi a Venezia fino all’8 gennaio 2023, Una specie di tenerezza, podcast in due episodi, racconta la vita e l’opera dell’artista Marlene Dumas. Il podcast -scritto in italiano e adattato in inglese e francese- ripercorre il cammino di Dumas sullo sfondo di due contesti storici e geografici: il Sudafrica dell’apartheid, dove Dumas trascorre l’infanzia e la giovinezza; il particolare universo di Amsterdam, dove Dumas si trasferisce a ventitré anni e dove tuttora vive. L’inizio degli anni 80 e il brusio crescente dei media costituiscono l’atmosfera in cui Dumas lavora, traendo ispirazione da fotogrammi di un film e da foto trovate sulla pagina di un quotidiano o di una rivista pornografica. Prostituzione, colpa, innocenza, violenza e tenerezza sono i temi delle sue opere. Del mondo di Dumas fanno parte persone comuni, così come volti noti della storia recente, da Pasolini a Marilyn Monroe. È questa la vibrante materia pittorica che a partire da marzo invaderà le sale e i corridoi di Palazzo Grassi.Marlene Dumas between words and images. On the occasion of the great "open-end" exhibition at Palazzo Grassi in Venice, open to visitors until January 8, 2023, "A sort of Tenderness" tells the story and describes the work of the artist Marlene Dumas. The two-episode podcast – written in Italian and adapted in English and French – traces Dumas's life path as it intertwined with two different historical and geographical contexts: the Apartheid and South Africa, where Dumas spent her childhood and youth, the unique universe of Amsterdam, the city where Dumas moved at the age of 23 and where she still lives. The beginning of the 80s and the buzz media industry made up the atmosphere where she worked, drawing inspiration from movies still frames, and pictures found in newspapers or erotic magazines. Prostitution, guilt, innocence, violence and tenderness are the themes ff her works. The world of Dumas includes ordinary people, as well as well-known faces from recent history, from Pasolini to Marilyn Monroe. From March this is the pictorial wave that will cross the corridors and halls of Palazzo Grassi.Join Podchaser to...
