The Premio Lorenzo Bonaldi per l'Arte –
EnterPrize, now in its 6th year, is the only one of its kind: its aim
is to search out talented curators under the age of 30 and to mount the
winner's proposed exhibition.
This award was presented for the
first time in 2003 by the GAMeC with the support of the Bonaldi
family as a result of the family's wish to commemorate Lorenzo
Bonaldi's passion for art and collecting. Its purpose is to draw attention
to the importance of the curator in the international art field and to
encourage and support the talent of a young curator at an extremely dynamic
moment of his or her professional career. The idea behind this prize was to
create not a competitive situation, but an opportunity for professional
growth and comparison. This is why, in 2005, the idea arose to accompany
the awards ceremony with a biennial convention, Qui. Enter Atlas –
International Symposium of Emerging Curators.
The
Log-O-Rithmic exhibition is the outcome of the winning project of
the Swiss freelance curator Fredi Fischli, chosen at GAMeC in
November 2011 by an international panel. It takes the ephemeral
work The Log-O-Rithmic Slide Rule by the architects Trix
and Robert Haussmann as a starting point. As a playful device based on
a bureaucratic principle, it offers a combinatory potential that creates
infinite varieties of imaginative architecture, language and
images. Seven contemporary artists have been invited to activate
the experimental device and reprocess it for their own specific purpose.
With the support of: Istituto Svizzero di Roma
