Haris Epaminonda

In conjunction with Artweek 2024, Museo del Novecento presents "VOL. XXXI: Futurism Drama", a site-specific project by Cypriot artist Haris Epaminonda. The exhibition, organized by the Henraux Foundation and curated by Edoardo Bonaspetti, opens up a dialogue in the Gallery of Futurism between the expressions of the avant-garde, the sculpture of Medardo Rosso and the artist’s own work. Epaminonda, winner of the first edition of the Henraux Foundation’s Sculpture Commission, creates layered installations that see planes and poetic visions intersect, her painstaking formal refinement co-existing with the dimensions of the unfinished. In a time that seems to us to be increasingly divisive and uncertain, the artist’s compositions remind us not only of the importance of the connection between different cultural traditions and forms of thinking, but also of the value and the qualities that possible new worlds can take on.
