B in Venice

In Venice, British artist Hugo Tillman will show elements of his Inheritance project entitled “The Other Night” inspired by French philosopher Maurice Blanchot’s essay “The Gaze of Orpheus”. Tillman will present a selection of his black photos which represent the dark place of inspiration during the artistic process, and a video entitled “Longan” (translated loosely in English as “under the bed”), an abstraction of a greater work that he made in collaboration with Javanese Dalan Slamet Gundono while in Indonesia.

The artist's only major new solo show in 2013, it will be presented across two locations: the Zitelle complex, home of Zuecca Project Space, and the church of Sant'Antonin.
