Catalogue of Doris Maninger’s solo exhibition<\/p>\n

for a provisional anthology of elevated desires
\n<\/strong>Curated by Veronica He, Pia Lauro<\/p>\n

STUDIO STEFANIA MISCETTI, Rome
\n21.10.21 \u2013 08.01.22<\/p>\n

On display forty Mongolfiere, made with recycled materials, objet trouv\u00e9 and natural elements, each dedicated to a desire. The project was born in the spring of 2020 when, in response to the isolation imposed by the pandemic, the artist asked friends, family and colleagues to express a desire to be shaped, leaving all of them free to follow the flow of their thoughts and aspirations. This freedom gave birth to a choral discourse, made up of a set of desires all different from each other but united by the same strength and determination.<\/p>\n

The anthology composed by Doris Maninger is, as the title itself explains, a provisional collection \u2013 because it is potentially in the making \u2013 of desires ironically defined as “elevated”, an allusion to both their nobility and their suspension in space.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Mongolfiere series, the series of drawings is also on display, in which the artist returns to work on desires to give life to two-dimensional works where artistic intuition finds its maximum synthesis and abstraction. To complete the exhibition, voice overs that transform every single desire into a soundtrack. This part of the project was developed in collaboration with Maurizio Alampi, who composed a short arrangement with each desire, providing an admittedly partial poetic reading among the many possible ones.<\/p>\n

For a provisional anthology of elevated desires it is therefore a collection of forms of desire, in which the coexistence of languages, and a composition methodology based on the circularity and the chorality of thought give life to an anthology that we could define as proximity, as story of the substance of the human relationship.<\/p>\n
