KEEP UP WITH 

MAESTRO RIELLO

PLAN B Foundation has just host Antonio Riello for a new site-specific Art Project. POSTCARD FROM A FUTURE CULT is a photographic project focused on a series of postcards
IMG-20240906-WA0011jpg

Plan B is in Greece, near Perachora village, looking the Korinthian Gulf. The view from Plan B dominates magnificent landscapes: the wild northern coast of Peloponneso. The project plays a sort of (artistic) game mixing the traditional photographic clichè of Greek seaside with the sloppy and buggy attitude of Italian tourists when they are and feel “al mare in Grecia”.

Taking a picture of a landscape for a tourist means to nick it and to bring it back to home as a sort of holiday trophy. At least in several selcted contests. So I started to imagine these pictures like a sort of trophies where somebody (the semi-adventourous visitor) is portrayed inside a framework. But with a reverse logic: the main carachter is actually a bunch of eponymous local views, on the other side the visitor becomes just a sort of (tragic or funny, depends) background.

The use of an exhausted tyre as a framework underscores the contrast between the everyday life in these places and the abusive imagination of visitors who are always committed to find (even sometime to discover) ancient ruins and extraordinary natural beauties. At the end of the day not the usual geometrically decorated classical frame but a dented tyre standing as a metaphor of the prosaic existences of the dwellers of these lands. The presence of a stunning Classical temple actually does not deprive local people of the opportunities offered by Modernity.

Anthropological postcards where the case study is the mind and the habits of the explorer-anthropologist itself (and related prejudices).
