The “Uncombed, Unforeseen, Unconstrained” exhibition is a collateral event of the 59. Venice Biennale International Art Exhibition, open at the Benedetto Marcello Conservatory of Music through November 27, 2022.
London-based nonprofit contemporary art gallery Parasol presents the exhibition of eleven international contemporary artists. Featured artists are: Darren Almond, Rana Begum with Hyetal, Oliver Beer, Julian Charrière, Si On, David Claerbout, Bharti Kher, Arghavan Khosravi, Teresa Margolles, Martin Puryear, and Rayyane Tabet.
Through their different practices, the artists explore the common theme of entropy as a symbol of our current global situation, the measure of disorder, randomness and unpredictability within a system. In art, the concept of entropy is explored by artists through artworks that look at our daily lives and the universal negativity of the modern world, such as environmental pollution, global warming, racism, political activism, health hazards, uncontrolled globalization, unregulated digitalization, excess and waste, widespread greed, a rampant thirst for power and the disproportionate accumulation of wealth. Issues largely due to the activities of the Earth’s own inhabitants, which are seriously threatening life on the planet and jeopardizing even a minimal need for world peace and harmony.
