Mousse Magazine: Marinella Senatore “The School of Narrative Dance and Other Surprising Things” at MOSTYN, Llandudno
http://moussemagazine.it/marinella-senatore-mostyn-2016/
MOSTYN, Wales UK proudly presents the first solo exhibition in a British institution by Marinella Senatore.
The exhibition presents a selection of the artist’s work from 2009 to today, in a renewed form of installation which will enable visitor participation and active engagement. A special focus is dedicated to The School of Narrative Dance, an ongoing, touring project founded by the artist in 2013 which has received wide acclaim from the public in over ten countries around the world.
For the first time we present, in its original idea, RE:VERB—a multi-layered work consisting of seven videos intended for television broadcast, made with the people of Llandudno during the artist’s residency in North Wales in 2015. This work was commissioned by CALL, and made possible by the collaborative initiative and financial support of the Arts Council Wales Ideas:People:Places grant and Mostyn Estates Ltd.
This is the first solo exhibition of the artist in a British institution and is designed and developed as a panoramic look at her most recent production, and in particular on the increased attention by Senatore towards the involvement of communities. It exemplifies the powerful idea of rethinking places responsible for culture in a more dynamic way. At the same time promoting the active inclusion of the public in the creation and in the use of the artwork, it empowers the individual in relation to social structures and community-gathering systems.

Y O U at MOSTYN, Llandudno – Exhibition review in MOUSSE Magazine

As the inaugural exhibition of MOSTYN’s new programme of exhibitions, “Y O U” addresses, and dialogues with, the time in which it takes place. It brings together works by five international artists that invite or require your involvement, aiming to create close relationships with you, the audience.
“Y O U” engages you in ways that you may not be accustomed to in relation to your experience of artworks and exhibitions to date. As it responds to you, and is subject to perpetual change and re-order in accordance to your activity, it challenges conventional codes of behaviour in the context of a gallery space.
While the exhibition considers the art historical background of the relationship between artwork and viewer, and its growing status over time, it asks, how do these works engage and forge relationships with audiences in distinctively different ways from any other works of art? How is the role of the viewer elevated and placed into the centre uniquely? Through exhibiting artworks that engender such questions,”Y O U” hopes to build an alliance between you, the artwork and MOSTYN itself.
In addition to the artworks on view is a display by the School of Psychology, Bangor University comprising cultural artifacts, documents and other items showing the connection between physical objects and our cognition. In so doing, the intention is to place the artworks by the participating artists in a broader cultural and contextual field, and enlarge upon our engagement with, and perception of, objects in general.
This exhibition is accompanied by a solo presentation of the work of Keith Arnatt and is the first set of exhibitions of MOSTYN’s new programme, curated by Adam Carr, Visual Arts Programme Curator at MOSTYN, Llandudno (North Wales, UK).
