Workshop Vittorio Brodman & Mathis Altman

Workshop Vittorio Brodman & Mathis Altman

 

The POOL workshop focuses on interdisciplinary practices and involves a wide variety of mediums. Its core is rooted in the ideas of sculpture and painting, as seen in the work of Mathis Altmann and Vittorio Brodmann. The two artists explore techniques for embedding narrative structures, highlighting representational elements while investigating how abstraction can lead to distortion, the grotesque, and the fantastical.

The workshop draws attention to our immediate surroundings, carefully examined and used as source material. It encourages including a broad range of ideas, materials, observations, physical objects, and ephemeral elements found nearby.
The framework revolves around the concept of the model, both as a playful way to explore scale and as a method of setting a scene. The ECAL design workshop amenities are utilized alongside input from art historical examples spanning the 20th century to the present.
The POOL workshop concludes with a presentation at Sebeillon Space on the final day.

Alessandra Ghiazza – Paysages absents - Absent landscapes

by Alessandra Ghiazza

In the empty spaces I find pieces of dreams fields and water, of the forgotten green. A stratification of memories that leads to reveal experiences in natural landscapes, real but also places suspended between memory and the dreamlike, creating through geometric and repetitive shapes a space of contemplation on places, to find them again; postcards of a fragile and continuously changing landscape.

Camila Polania – Instructions of Rematriation

by Camila Polania

Some say the body arrives first, and the soul takes longer. This installation begins with that delay, in the tension between presence and absence. Instructions of Rematriation is a video installation projected onto a wind-moved fabric, a surface that never fully settles. In front, white Rimax chairs evoke everyday spaces of waiting across Latin America: porches, patios, sidewalks. The work follows the passing of a single day, tracing the slow return to the body after displacement. Through video, writing, textile, and sound, the installation holds a kind of return, not geopolitical, but personal and ancestral: a political and spiritual reconnection with what was once left behind.

Giorgio Cassano – ZONA DI SACRIFICIO

by Giorgio Cassano

ZONA DI SACRIFICIO is a film study that fuses documentary, ethnography, and poetic montage around the Fiume Tara—Taranto’s revered “miracle river.” Through a tapestry of memories, legends, visions, and personal testimonies, the film explores how this sacred source has sustained local identity and resilience, even as the encroachment of the ILVA steelworks has turned the surrounding landscape into a literal “sacrifice zone.” It is both a visual elegy to a once-pure watercourse and a poignant reflection on environmental violence, tracing the uneasy coexistence of spiritual reverence and industrial devastation in a community striving to reclaim its voice.
