Artericambi is pleased to present the new exhibition space on the occasion of the solo show of the artists Curandi Katz and the Space Project of Marco Secondin. Renewal and continuity are the watchwords that accompany the change of location of the Veronese gallery which has made itself known in Italy and abroad also for the monumental installations that its premises had been able to host.
Today Artericambi welcomes a new challenge by entering the heart of city life to recontextualize the artistic research that has always distinguished it. And this is precisely the spirit that characterizes it, which animated the projects of the past and which will revive the ancient Cavadini square in an encounter between tradition and experimentation.
A continuity of the same process of renewal that has made Artericambi an institution by now known for the quality of the proposed works and for the personality of the artists it has accompanied over time, encouraging their evolutions to allow themselves to be changed.
If the solid network of aficionados, collaborators and friends constitutes the basis of a development that has been supported on enthusiasm and sincere relationships, today the inauguration of the new space emphasizes the desire to give continuity to this same evolutionary process, proposing the works of original and promising young people such as Curandi Katz and Marco Secondin.

BIO
Curandi Katz (Valentina Curandi e Nathaniel Katz) is an Italian / American artistic duo based in Italy. Their work uses the language of performance to explore the ethics of human relations, testing different media in search of the “survival” of artistic interventions.

Marco Secondin born in 1986, Venice. Live and work in Milan. He chooses the Brera Academy of Fine Arts to deepen his studies, following the painting course of Alberto Garutti. Through his videos with a playful aspect but with a structuralist logic, he is appreciated for the material use of the medium. It is in fact selected by Gianni Caravaggio for a mainly sculptural exhibition Academy Awards: The intimacy of the image as a place in common, Viafarini Docva; and in 2013 he won the first prize for the Officine Green Festival. Among the other group shows we remember Coordinate Ellipticals, curated by Bruno Muzzolini. Marco Secondin, researches the material potential of everyday life by questioning the autonomy of form.
