Program:
May 26th, 2010 - The Infinite Library (Haris Epaminonda & Daniel Gustav Kramer)
The Infinite Library is an ongoing project by Daniel Gustav Cramer and Haris Epaminonda.
It is primarily an expanding archive of books, each created out of pages of one or more found books and bound anew. The Infinite Library is not a library in the sense we know it but rather a space in which endless possibilities can emerge. As an index it recalls the Library of Babel by Borges. The books that the two artists compose constitute volumes that result out of different combinations and juxtapositions of existing books which, after taken apart, are later joined together to create new volumes. The books now stand autonomously not as narrative structures constructed by the text flow but by an associative system of imagery and intuitive conceptions. Maybe it has always been the case that one inscribed into an already existing, everlasting text; into a story, a narration that always reinvents itself, continues boundlessly by reconnecting with other elements.

May 27t, 2010 - Jacopo Milani, Four days will quickly steep themselves in night
with the collaboration of: Meris Angioletti, Giacomo Benelli, Francesca Boenzi, Alice Cannava, Rosie Cooper, Giovanni de Francesco, Pietro Gaglianò, Timothy Hull, Kinkaleri, Maria Pecchioli, Claudia Squitieri, Karol Radziszewski, Valentina Sansone, The Grossi Maglioni Magic Duo.
The work presented at the Reading Room by Jacopo Miliani is an investigation about the representative processes, which interplays and confronts two different methodologies: Images and theatrical text.
The contributions of different professionals of arts and theatre have been collected and they will be presented inside a display created by the artist, offering a freely expanded, but also specific, vision on the proposed topic.
