Description
Edited by Alessandro Rabottini and Leonardo Bigazzi, with Bianca Stoppani, this book provides an overview of artist Ali Cherri’s output over the past three years, teasing out both new strands for interpretation and formal links between his films, videos, sculptures, drawings, and installations. Originated by Fondazione In Between Art Film on the occasion of Dreamless Night—a comprehensive solo exhibition first staged at GAMeC in Bergamo, and currently at Frac Bretagne in Rennes—the book showcases a number of newly commissioned essays that reflect upon Cherri’s most recent exhibition projects. Starting with the documenting of Dreamless Night, the book also covers Humble and quiet and soothing as mud, the 2023 exhibition at Swiss Institute in New York; the artist’s participation in the Venice Biennale in 2022; and If you prick us, do we not bleed?, the exhibition held at the National Gallery in London following his residency at the museum in 2021.
