{"product_id":"16789-rosa-barba","title":"Rosa Barba","description":"The artist Rosa Barba (born 1972 in Agrigento) has made an international name for herself with her filmic works. She interrogates industrial cinema for various forms of staging, such as gesture, genre, and information, detaching them from their original context and re-shaping and re-presenting them. According to Ian White, this creates \"the effect of questioning and reshaping truth and fiction, myth and reality, metaphor and material to a dizzying degree that ultimately expands into a conceptual practice...\"\u003cbr\u003eA publication in the spirit of the artist cannot be purely documentary. Thus, extensive essays by renowned authors contribute not only expert knowledge but also personal experience. Most importantly, the selection of film stills, working sketches, and images comes from Barba herself, creating, in a sense, a work of art in its own right.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eExhibitions: Museo di arte moderna e contemporanea di Trento e Rovereto May 27–August 28, 2011 | Fondazione Galleria Civica – Centro di Ricerca sulla Contemporaneità di Trento May 28–September 28, 2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eROSA BARBA (born 1972, Agrigento, Italy) is a highly acclaimed artist working with film.
