AFTER DUCHAMP Installation
by Leonardo Pierro

Inspired by the art of the Neo Dada movements, Arte Povera and Fluxus, these works respond to the deliberate attempt to transcend the work: a detournement that changes its direction of meaning, subtracting the work's practical function to arrive at something different, a poetic, symbolic, alienating function compared to the function assigned to it. The result of this operation may appear obvious and banal, but this does not mean it is senseless, because it is the result of continuous and innovative research into artistic practice. In these difficult times, I often find myself reflecting on the intellectual climate that marked the latest avant-gardes, of the spirit of the time, that enormous cultural and aesthetic legacy to the postmodern world; for example the experimental music and operational method of J. Cage, the art of J. Baldessari, that indeterminacy that accompanied investigates the onset of a new abstract and polysemic sensibility, the 'medialism' of Maciunas. This research evolves in the balance between determination and indeterminacy, the one that best serves the end, which is the same, is chosen in every circumstance (so, conversely, both can equally fail).
