In collaboration with Celeste
4th May, 2024 4:30 PM – 9:00 PM
Celeste is pleased to present the new event HOW I MET YOUR LAUNDRY: Twelve Performative Interludes and a Party, curated by Maurizio Coccia, starting at 4:30 PM on Saturday, May 4, at the Gammarana laundry-exhibition space in Teramo.
How I Met Your Laundry takes its name from a popular TV series and features a fast-paced succession of short performances, each lasting a maximum of 15 minutes, presented by students from the Academy of Fine Arts of L’Aquila: Mara Albani, Margherita Callà, Francesca Chiola, Sara Dias, Satya Forte, Sabrina Iezzi, Davide Mariani, Andrea Marinucci in collaboration with Lorenzo Mazzaufo, Francesca Perniola, Susanna Sforza, and Luigi Vetuschi.
Within this performative marathon, two talks will be held, led by philosopher Daniele Poccia and art critic Amalia Temperini, respectively.
The event will conclude with a party featuring music by BAu in the nearby playground.
The project stems from the collaboration between the Academy of Fine Arts of L’Aquila and Celeste, aiming to strengthen the cooperation between various active participants in contemporary art in Abruzzo. It highlights the connections between art and reality, concept and execution, potential and outcome, with undeniable methodological and practical impacts on the artistic careers of the involved students.
