Special Project
LANDMARKS ( 2020 – in progress ) by Judith Annoni and Giuseppe Mongiello For her project "Appuntamento", on 20.02.20 Judith Annoni meets Giuseppe Mongiello at the Casa degli Artisti, in Milan. Interrupted due to the first lockdown, Appuntamento is a work of relational art to be returned to the Open Class of The Momentary Now Performance School, in May of the same year. The episode of Appuntamento takes place in a non-place, on the floor of Casa degli Artisti. During the encounter, laid on an Indian canvas¹, discover emerging the transitional characteristics of the canvas that houses them: an accessory creator of other spaces, a temporary dwelling but also a garment, scarf, headgear. Landmarks was born from the interruption of Appuntamento, where the bodies on canvas of the two authors, framing each other with new dynamics, become the device for reflecting on and resignifying domestic confinement during the health crisis. In an untitled beginning, Landmarks was a collection of questions on the unprecedented processes related to bodies, space and landscape, a con-frontation, in exceptional circumstances, on the frontier: a place that allows for confrontation, the sacred emptiness of looking out. The body will always be there, where am I? Is the body an encounter between the self and the world or their separation? Once chosen as a title, Landmarks became the materialisation of questions, conceptual slides research references: invisible points that it is their very presence that signals, chooses and reveals. Amplified the principles of abstraction of our spaces and relations without proximity, the Landmarks go to find, where geography is redefined, an ideal dimension without rules, resting on the earth of perception and the inconsistency of a sky, represented by the canvas. 1 Cotton canvas with gold border, called Vesthi or Dothi in Tamil Nadu, south India; cm.188x1
