Marialuisa Capurso, current artist in residence of the Radio Art Residency Weimar is invited for two events in Weimar: the first Radiogespräch of the semester at the Experimental Radio (November 16th) and a panel discussion at ACC Galerie (November 17th).
How can a medium like radio be a safe space where memories and voices become a strong shared experience of a collective awareness? Having as a starting point the first Rubedo composition for generations.fm, Marialuisa Capurso has been collecting and composing voices of women. These voices form a choir of confessions, with which the artist tries to engage in an intense way.
During the Radiogespräch Marialuisa will present past and current works as well as her artistic approach. For her, the artistic strategy Rubedoaims to enlarge the spectrum of listening, by allowing intimacy. During Rubedo the focus is on the process and not on the destination. Marialuisa researches about these intimate processes during her three-month residency in Weimar. After the presentation an open studio discussion moderated by Prof. Nathalie Singer will take place.
Radiogespräche is a series of talks by the Experimental Radio at the Faculty of Art and Design of the Bauhaus University Weimar.
