ArtOnTime

VENICE – 30TH OF JUNE 2017. EBERHARD & CO., WHICH HAS ALWAYS BEEN ACTIVE VERY BROADLY ACROSS THE ARTS, HAS ALSO BEEN A LONG-TERM SUPPORTER OF PROJECTS THAT ENHANCE EXCELLENCE AND SAVOIR-FAIRE. ON THE 30TH OF JUNE, IN VENICE, THE MAISON PRESENTED THE SECOND STAGE OF THE ARTONTIME PROJECT. ARTONTIME IS AN AWARD, AN EXHIBITION AND A CROWDFUNDING INITIATIVE; IT WAS BEGUN WITH THE AIM OF INVESTIGATING AND PROMOTING RESEARCH WITHIN THE LANGUAGE OF PERFORMANCE WHICH, IN RECENT YEARS, HAS BROKEN THROUGH AS ONE OF THE AREAS OF GREATEST INNOVATION AND EXPERIMENTATION WITHIN CONTEMPORARY ART.

AGAINST THE SPLENDID SETTING OF PALAZZO TREVISAN, HOME TO BOTH THE SWISS CONSULATE AND SWISS FOUNDATION FOR CULTURE PRO HELVETIA, THE PERFORMANCES CONNECTED WITH THE PROJECT HAPPENED THROUGH THE CROWDFUNDING OF ARTRAISING.ORG.

ARTONTIME EXPLORES THE DIMENSION AND DEEPENS THE CONCEPT OF TIME THROUGH PERFORMANCE ART, UNDERSTOOD AS A RESOURCE AS WELL AS ARTISTIC REFLECTION. IN MARCH, IN MILAN, DURING THE MIA PHOTO FAIR, AN INTERNATIONAL CONTEMPORARY ART FESTIVAL DEDICATED TO PHOTOGRAPHY, THE PROJECT WAS FIRST PRESENTED AND THE CROWDFUNDING LAUNCHED FOR THE FUNDING OF FOUR PERFORMERS WHO SUBSEQUENTLY CONCEIVED THEIR WORK AND PRESENTED THEM IN VENICE, AGAINST THE BEAUTIFUL BACKGROUND OF PALAZZO TREVISAN DEGLI ULIVI.

THE ARTISTS WHO RESPONDED TO THE CALL, JULIA KRAHN, LUIGI PRESICCE, GIORDANO RUSH AND INVERNOMUTO, OFFERED THEIR PERFORMANCES, WITHIN AN EVENT RESERVED FOR THE CROWDFUNDING DONORS. ON THE 2^ND OF DECEMBER, ROME’S MAXXI WILL PLAY HOST TO A NEW STAGE PERFORMANCE, DURING THE FINAL EVENT OF ROMAEUROPA FESTIVAL. ON THIS OCCASION, EBERHARD & CO. WILL ASSIGN TO THE BEST EXHIBITION THE “EBERHARD & CO. PRIZE FOR PERFORMING ART”.
