🡒 Designed specifically for the spaces on the third floor of the Castle, the exhibition project collects some of the most significant film works created by Anri Sala in recent years in an innovative organic path, taking inspiration from musical compositions, including Ravel, Ravel, Take Over, and If and Only if. As components of an unusual orchestra, the three works on display at the Castle have been remodeled by the artist using augmented reality as a tool, in order to offer visitors an immersive experience of high emotional and synaesthetic impact. According to the artist’s project, the projections will wind along a special wall across the rooms of the venue. The exhibition will take the form of a “parade”, with a flow of moving images and multiple narratives. More than a presentation of three intertwined film works, the exhibition as a whole can be interpreted as a device capable of transforming the projections into a single and gigantic moving sculpture. This catalog delves into AS YOU GO, the original project conceived by Sala for Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art in the form of an exhibition that is also a single new work, extended over time and space and capable of engaging viewers in an unprecedented perceptual experience. For this volume, I wanted to follow what the artist’s intent was. I tried to represent the “parade” of the works on display through a series of photos that follow one after the other between the various pages, creating a visual continuity between them. In addition to the succession of images, I tried to give rhythmicity to the text by aligning the columns at the bottom and making them end up at different heights, pursuing the aim of representing the sound waves as if they were viewed through an equalizer. This project was carried out in collaboration with Leftloft.
