Karmachina returns to the LUMINALE festival in Frankfurt

After the highly successful 2018 edition with their Changing Times video-mapping project recounting the outstanding story of the Alte Oper theatre, Karmachina participates in the 2020 edition of the Biennial for Light Art and Urban Design with a new installation specifically designed to travel inside a railcar of an old city tram.

Instead of passengers, the 1956 vehicle operated by the historic Verkehrsgesellschaft Frankfurt (VGF) company, will transport the Karmachina multimedia installation across the neighbourhoods of Frankfurt. A “mobile installation” radiating out of the tram windows and visible from the streets, A Journey around Painters and Light celebrates the diverse journeys into light such as those undertaken by many nineteenth- and twentieth-century painters in their artistic, personal, and collective researches.

The installation stems from the 2020 LUMINALE concept – Digital Romantic – an invitation to explore interactions and conjunctions between these two seemingly antithetical categories.

Looking for Mona Lisa: Monna Lisa who? in Pavia

Karmachina presents “Monna Lisa Who?” from 24 November to 29 March 2020 in Pavia as part of the exhibition entitled “LOOKING FOR MONNA LISA. Misteri e ironie attorno alla più celebre icona pop”.

The “Monna Lisa who?” narrative environment reinterprets the space of the church of Santa Maria Gualtieri in a quest for the identity of the world’s most famous portrait. An immersive narration where the image of the Louvre Gioconda, other versions of the Monna Lisa, Leonardo’s drawings, and the animated and digitally elaborated pictorial works, with the sounds and the narration paired with the setup designed by Studio Dune, find a perfect balance with the vertical structure, the symmetry and the soft quality of the lines of the exhibition venue, accompanying the viewer on an immersive experience.

Tríptiko, the multimedia concert inspired by the works of Bosch in the Prado Museum

Every year the Princess of Asturias Foundation convenes the Princess of Asturias Awards, that are presented during a solemn ceremony held in Oviedo (Spain), the capital city of the Principality of Asturias. This year the award for the Communication and Humanities category will be conferred to the Prado Museum, the most important cultural institution in Spain and one of the most important art galleries in the world, which has recently celebrated the 200th anniversary of its foundation.

Every year the Awards ceremony, presided over by Their Majesties The King and Queen of Spain, is accompanied by a series of events organised by the Foundation to present prize winning institutions and personalities of the current edition to the wider public.

Following the success of Belleza y locura, the film-narration by Rino Stefano Tagliafierro, co-founder of Karmachina, and produced by El País Semanal to celebrate the Prado Museum’s 200th anniversary, the Princess of Asturias Foundation decided to entrust Karmachina with the creation and realisation of a multimedia concert dedicated to a selection of masterpieces held by the museum in Madrid. The works of the painter Hieronymus Bosch were chosen for their exceptional visionary strength, a never-ending source of inspiration for a highly evocative audio-visual project, with music by Fernweh.

Tríptiko. A vision inspired by Hieronymus Bosch
10 October 8.30pm – 11 October 8pm – 12 October 9.30pm
Fábrica de Armas de La Vega, Oviedo – Asturias (Spain)
Registrations start from 7th October, 12am

Karmachina’s Journey across Italy at 74th Sagra Musicale Umbra

Viaggio in Italia. Ethnomusic Video Mapping draws inspiration from the research of Alan Lomax, the American ethnomusicologist who with his colleague Diego Carpitella, in the 1950s travelled across Italy to discover and document the country’s noble oral musical tradition. The performance is intended as an “audio-visual homage” to the extraordinary variety of themes of traditional music in Italy, a country that is one of Europe’s most important areas of ethnomusicology, in terms of extension and variety.

VIAGGIO IN ITALIA. ETHNOMUSIC VIDEO MAPPING
Un viaggio nelle polifonie dell’Italia sacra e profana

curated by KARMACHINA
followed by the concert by BASIANI (Tbilisi) – The State Ensemble of Georgian Folk Song
