scheduled Allora Vero Cezary Bodzianowski a cura di Pierre Bal-Blanc

The show

Fondazione Morra Greco is pleased to announce the new solo exhibition of Polish artist Cezary Bodzianowski , Quando Vero , curated by Pierre Bal-Blanc . The exhibition will be hosted from 11 May to 27 July 2024 and will involve all floors of Palazzo Caracciolo in Avellino, headquarters of the Foundation in the heart of the historic center of Naples. The exhibition is an exploration of the audiovisual works of the visionary Polish artist, now in his second exhibition at the Foundation after Casio Pay between 2010 and 2011. Between existing works and new productions conceived for this project, the works on display guide the public in an alienating and provocative experience, following the spectacle of the artist's quips and jokes, of his deviations from reality.


The title of the artist's solo exhibition, Then Vero Cezary Bodzianowski curated by Pierre Bal-Blanc , can be interpreted not only as a simple line of titles and credits, but also as a sentence that seems incomplete, requiring an exclamation or a question mark to be grammatically correct.
The exhibition intends to highlight this duality in the perception of reality right from the title. The invisible gap, frozen time or the suspension of places are the characteristics preferred by the artist's works. The invitation addressed to the public is to physically embody along the path of the rooms of Palazzo Caracciolo in Avellino the experience provoked by the works of Cezary Bodzianowski, to follow the spectacle of these parabases or these deviations from reality.
This kinetic movement implemented by the visitor is synchronized or asynchronous with the skilful editing of the video footage of Cezary Bodzianowski's gestures documented by his partner Monika Chojnicka, who is also the first witness of the antics that the artist performs in daily life, here in Naples or elsewhere.
“Parabase” and “lazzi”: it is precisely a particular vocabulary that we must refer to on the occasion of this Neapolitan exhibition by Cezary Bodzianowski, a terminology that associates the artist's practice with that of Pulcinella (Neapolitan anti-hero present in the frescoes of toilet of Princess Caracciolo) rather than that of a “dada” – a term that has historically become more commonly used to describe any deviation from convention. Cezary Bodzianowski's exhibition shows a deeper genealogy, one that connects us through his works to satyrs, silenians and puffins.
