Aerolectics - Belinda Kazeem-Kamiński
Opening: 15.03.2025, 6 pm
Duration: 16.03 - 09.06.2025
Artist: Belinda Kazeem-Kamiński
Curators: Lucrezia Cippitelli, Simone Frangi
The solo exhibition Aerolectics presents Belinda Kazeem-Kamiński's works for the first time in Italy. In the context of the three-year program The Invention of Europe, the artist and author sheds light on a rarely considered chapter of South Tyrolean history: the missionary system. Based on the material metaphor of the Insubric Line, a juncture formed by the meeting of the African and European plates, Kazeem-Kamiński explores the intertwining of history and the present, particularly in relation to the African context.
Inspired by the story of Asue*, a young African girl who involuntarily arrived at the Ursuline convent in Bruneck/Brunico in January 1855 due to the missionary system, Kazeem-Kamiński unfolds a polyphonic and multimedia narrative.

Rundgang & Einweihung der Installation
Der Transport der Ausstellung von Südtirol nach Venedig erfolgte auf ungewöhnliche Weise – in einem „artcontainer“, den die Künstlerin Wil-ma Kammerer eigens im Auftrag des Unternehmens Niederstätter gestaltet hat. Das Werk mit dem Titel I WISH YOU… besteht aus gestapelten, schwarzen Containern mit weißen Wolkenmotiven und Punkten, Symbole für den Wandel vom Unbestimmten zum Konkreten. Diese poetische Bildsprache wird auch zum Leitmotiv der gesamten Kommunikation rund um die Ausstellung. Im Rahmen des Projektes artcontainer arbeitet die Niederstätter AG mit zeitgenössischen Künstler*innen an der Realisierung von Kunstprojekten für modulare Gebäude, sowohl für den öffentlichen als auch für den privaten Gebrauch. Die Installation I WISH YOU… von Wil-ma Kammerer wird während der gesamten Laufzeit der Architekturbiennale Venedig 2025 auf dem Areal des Spazio Thetis im Arsenale zu sehen sein.
