The meeting point will be at Fiorentini at 15:15 then we will move to Piazza Venezia and then to the Gallery where Ali Assaf will talk about his video art installation.
Born in 1950 in Bassora (Iraq), Ali Assaf lives in Rome from 1974. He has been showing his work
from the end of the seventies in Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. Artist and organizer of
cultural events, his work concentrates such contemporary problems as: identity, immigration, exile,
and reflecting upon the role of the artist.
For this occasion, Assaf will show for the first time in Rome “Narciso”, which was shown at the
Venice Biennial in 2011.

Just to remind you my exhibition if you are in Rome
Press

Galleria Monty&Company
Via
Madonna dei Monti, 69, 00184 Roma
Side By Side
Irmela Heimbacher is pleased to invite you to the opening of the exhibition
of Ali Assaf and Serafino Amato on the 19th of March at 6pm.
This
will be the first of a series of four exhibitions, entitled SideBy Side, in
which the works of two artists from different background and nationality will dialogue together.
Ali Assaf - Serafino Amato,
19 March - 4 April 2014
Myriam Laplante - Georgina Spengler,
11 - 29 april 2014
Peter Flaccus - Giuseppe Amalfi,
6 - 16 May 2014
William Pettit - Jochem Schoneveld,
20 - 30 may 2014
“they
know, they choose […] each other, to knit together their languages which
resonate in different forms, languages which become related.”
Serafino
Amato, who has coordinated the series of shows, writes:”...the world of cinema,
of art...” thats how they call them, as if they were separate worlds. Maybe in some cases they really are
worlds that turn inscrutably. In fact,
“the finance world” is such a case.
It conditions us while remaining like a comet ready to crash.
The
world of art...and I think of a planet with few inhabitants, orbiting in the
realm of the human for some, in reality for others, in the metaphysical for
others still. An artist in his
lifetime meets and recognizes few others like him and he remembers each one,
and if his memory is good he remembers their appearances and their
restlessness. This group of
persons, us, we recognize each other for what we are, whether we deal with the
human, the real, or travel on the abstract or metaphysical.
Myriam
L, Georgina S, Peter F, Jochem S, William P, Ali A, Serafino A, Giuseppe A,
inhabit territories where only a feeling of diaspora makes it possible to
create new existential plots, this being the only bitter possibility to meet
between artists...still.
Born
in 1950 in Bassora (Iraq), Ali Assaf
lives in Rome from 1974. He has
been showing his work from the end of the seventies in Europe, North Africa and
the Middle East. Artist and
organizer of cultural events, his work concentrates such contemporary problems
as: identity, immigration, exile,
and
reflecting upon the role of the artist.
For
this occasion, Assaf will show for the first time in Rome “Narciso”, which was
shown at the Venice Biennial in 2011.
Born
in 1958, Serafino Amato developed in
the field of experimental theater in the eighties and then went on to dedicate
himself exclusively to photography.
He has shown in Italy and abroad.
Since 2000 he has also begun working with video. In 2008 he published with Lorenzo
Pavolini, “Ecatombe – i girini
della storia” and in 2012 “Fogli dei giorni – leafing through the days”. In side by Side he is presenting the
video: “Annibale e Amilcare il
disegno delle linee”... videotrailer for an unpublished manuscript.

1.What is the difference between video and film?

2.What is the documentary format?
-Documentary format is a traditional format that documentaries follow in film studies.
3.What is the documentary style?
-Documentary style is the style that artists use within a documentary which tends to relay real-time events. "It focuses and isolates a piece of reality."
4.How can a documentary be considered video art?
-The artist chooses to manipulate the video with sound, splicing, and text but must keep to the authenticity of the overall video. "The artist must use pre-existing audiovisual material or they must be directly involved in the situation."
