Carnevalma+Adoquines by Italian artist Laura Cionci is an articulated discourse that investigates the dynamics of the body and its wide possibilities of communication and interferences within public space. Outdoor performances and video and photographic instalments will converge in order to create a different access to the dense con-text we are living in. Opening up new strategies of presentation and of representation of the body. As a non – codified physicality.
This international exhibition has been created by Italian musician Salvatore Rossano who has brought for the first time in Australia the MURGA‘s cultural phenomenon, a musical genre dating back to the Spanish chirigota which evolved to become one of the richest traditions of Montevideo’s Carnival, in Uruguay.
Dr Salvatore Rossano, researcher at Monash University, holds a degree in ethnomusicology from the University of Bologna, a Master in Spanish and Latin American Music from the University of Valladolid.
