Ships in a Crate
multi pannel of 12 polaroids (unique editions) created during the filming of the RESURRECTION video installation (2005); a site-specific project for the Carrara marble quarries where Michelangelo personally extracted the pieces of stone from the mountain for the Pietà. As Michelangelo's slaves struggle to escape from the block of marble that locks them, the double video tries to free itself from the bands of the image. RESURRECTION has been exhibited at 11th MIART Milan International Modern and Contemporary Art Fair (Italy) and at Elettroshock – The Video in Italy from the 70's till today (1973-2006), Central Accademy of Fine Arts and CAFA Art Museum, Beijing (China), together with videos by Alighiero Boetti, Michelangelo Antonioni, Giulio Paolini and others. Each Polaroid measures 10 cm x 10 cm (3.9 inches x 3.9 inches) and is signed on the back. The 12 Polaroids are framed in a box with black frame, white passepartout and glass. Final measures 32,5 cm x 32,5 cm h 2,5 cm. We suggest to install the 12 Polaroids as a rectangle 4 x 3 but feel free to use your immagination in a particular composition :-)

Elastic Group of Artistic Research is an Italian/Spanish group of artists established in 1999 by Alexandro Ladaga and Silvia Manteiga. Their work is characterized by strong conceptual aspects that evolve from a deep analysis of the world around them. What stands out in their approach is their use and commentary in relation to technology which has been key to the evolution of their work. They have developed critical interpretations in relation to modernity and to its multiple aspects. As Duchamp stated: “Art makes the public,” so one can see in their work an extreme attention towards the reciprocity of the rapport between the artistic product and the spectator, in which the viewer often becomes thoroughly involved in an interactive relationship in which the video installation transforms the spectator into an integral part of the work of art. Elastic Group of Artistic Research is internationally recognized for his work in video/installation/public art and conceptual/abstract painting. Recently they have transformed their research from the immaterial image of video to the physicality of matter in the new series of abstract paintings "Tensioni Elastiche” (Elastic Tensions) in which they develop matter in the sense of Aristoteles. The ELASTIC Group are both artists and theorists and they have written a book on the rapport between public art and new technologies: “Moving Layers: Contextual video in art & architecture” (2014) and they are authors also of “127kBdiarte, pensare l'arte in rete” (2015). Their work has been exhibited in solo and group shows in the United States, Europe and Asia and is part of numerous private, public, and corporate collections. They have partecipated in numerous biennials as La Biennale di Venezia, Bienal de La Habana, Biennial of Media Art Rijeka, Istambul Web Biennial, Quadriennale di Roma, Biennale di Video fotografia di Alessandria, Biennale Adriatica di Arti Nuove, San Benedetto del Tronto, Biennale di Urban Design di Bologna. They have been awarded with residencies at The World Institute for Advanced Phenomenological Research and Learning, Columbia University, New York, University for Humanist Studies, Utrecht, Holland, The Royal Spanish Accademy at Rome, Casa de Velàzquez, Madrid, Exposicion Universal de Sevilla, Art & Science, Vardo Foundation, Stockholm-Gotland,Sweden, The Kitchen, New York, Fine Art Accademy of Carrara, Museum Quartier, Vienna, Teatro Nacional San Joao, Oporto.
