Andrew Rutt<br />

Nato a Londra nel 1965, si è laureato in Fine Art presso il Centr<strong>al</strong><br />

St. Martins e il Goldsmiths College. D<strong>al</strong> 2000 lavora dividendosi<br />

tra Roma e Londra. Le sue opere comprendono video, foto e<br />

inst<strong>al</strong>lazioni. Tra le mostre piu note si ricordano: Exotic Dancers<br />

(1999, solo show, VTO G<strong>al</strong>lery, Londra); Underwood Audio II (2002,<br />

group show, Underwood/Saatchi G<strong>al</strong>lery, Londra); Everything Must<br />

Go (2006, group show, VTO G<strong>al</strong>lery, Londra); A Book in the Back<br />

of Your Head (2007, solo show G<strong>al</strong>leria Navona 42, Roma) oltre a<br />

diverse partecipazioni a mostre collettive presso la G<strong>al</strong>leria S<strong>al</strong>a 1<br />

di Roma. Nella piu recente mostra Nuda verita tenutasi nel 2010<br />

presso la Biblioteca Angelica di Roma, Andew Rutt ha fotografato<br />

i dipendenti della stessa Biblioteca nudi, a contatto con i libri, nel<br />

loro quotidiano ambiente di lavoro. Il modo di lavorare dell’artista<br />

prevede spesso momenti di partecipazione, di interazione con <strong>al</strong>tri<br />

soggetti prima, durante o dopo la re<strong>al</strong>izzazione dell’opera stessa.<br />

Secondo Andrew Rutt “l’artista non e colui che fa cose interessanti,<br />

ma che fa succedere cose interessanti.“<br />

Avelino S<strong>al</strong>a<br />

Nato a Gijón nel 1972, dopo la laurea in Storia della Critica d’Arte<br />

Contemporanea e visiva presso l’Università di Brighton (Gran<br />

Bretagna), Avelino S<strong>al</strong>a fonda la rivista Sublime arte + cultura<br />

contemporanea e co-dirige il gruppo curatori<strong>al</strong>e Commission.<br />

In par<strong>al</strong>lelo porta avanti la sua ricerca artistica soffermandosi<br />

sulle contraddizioni inerenti il ruolo dell’artista nella società<br />

contemporanea. Il suo lavoro l’ha portato ad essere uno degli<br />

artisti più importanti del panorama odierno, interrogando la re<strong>al</strong>tà<br />

historic centre of Prato: Second Escape, curated by Pier Luigi Tazzi.<br />

The artist’s most recent solo shows include: Robert Pettena – Nobel<br />

Explosion & anti-hail rockets, curated by Marina Sorbello, UQBAR,<br />

Berlin; Jungle Bar, text by Gabi Scardi, Sponda, Contemporary<br />

Art G<strong>al</strong>lery - Fabio Tiboni, Bologna; and in 2011 Zabriskie Point<br />

Reloaded, curated by Emily Barsi, Rhizomatic Project Space,<br />

Amsterdam, NL.<br />

Born in London in 1965, he studied Fine Art and Critic<strong>al</strong> Theory at<br />

Centr<strong>al</strong> St. Martins and Goldsmiths College in London. Since 2000<br />

he works between Rome and London. His works incorporate videos,<br />

sculptures, photographs and inst<strong>al</strong>lations. Selected exhibitions<br />

include: Exotic Dancers (1999, VTO G<strong>al</strong>lery, London); Underwood<br />

Audio II (2002, Underwood G<strong>al</strong>lery, London); Everything Must Go<br />

(2006, VTO G<strong>al</strong>lery , London); A Book in the Back of Your Head<br />

(2007 G<strong>al</strong>lery Navona 42, Rome) as well as sever<strong>al</strong> participations<br />

in group exhibitions at G<strong>al</strong>leries in London and Rome. In his recent<br />

exhibition ‘Naked Truth’ (2010) at the 17 Century Biblioteca Angelica<br />

in Rome, the oldest public library in It<strong>al</strong>y, he included photographs<br />

of the employees of the library nude, in contact with books from<br />

their daily working environment. This relation<strong>al</strong> approach to art has<br />

<strong>al</strong>ways been a constant.<br />

According to Andrew Rutt “the artist is not only someone who makes<br />

interesting things, but who <strong>al</strong>so makes interesting things happen.“<br />

Born in Gijón in 1972, S<strong>al</strong>a is the editor-in-chief of the periodic<strong>al</strong><br />

“Sublime arte + cultura contemporanea”, and co-director of the<br />

curatori<strong>al</strong> group Commission. For his work he is considered one<br />

of the most important artists in the current art scene, questioning<br />

cultur<strong>al</strong> and soci<strong>al</strong> re<strong>al</strong>ity from a late romantic perspective. His<br />

work has been shown in various nation<strong>al</strong> and internation<strong>al</strong> group<br />

exhibitions such as the Virgil de Voldere g<strong>al</strong>lery, New York (Hostil<br />

2009), Museo Nacion<strong>al</strong> Centro de Arte Reina Sofia (Reencontres
