Dal  20 gennaio 2014, la Delfina Foundation di Londra ha riaperto la nuova sede in zona di Buckingham Palace.

UN MODO DI CONCEPIRE L’ARTE CHE DOVREMMO REALIZZARE ANCHE IN ITALIA, MA SIAMO MILLE MIGLIA LONTANI…

Una sede totalmente rinnovata; grazie agli interventi dell’inglese Studio Octopi e dell’egiziano Shahira Fahmy Architects.

-10 mesi di ampliamento e adattamento per una spesa di 1,4 milioni di sterline.

-Avendo raddoppiato i suoi spazi, la fondazione DELFINA può ospitare sino a otto artisti e curatori contemporaneamente; diventerà il principale centro residenziale per artisti  in città. 

La quasi ottuagenaria Delfina Entrecanales ha costruito l’ organizzazione basandosi  su “ospitalità” e “convivialità”.

-Partita nel 1988 a Stratford, nell’East London, oggi dimostra come un buon lavoro possa trovare i giusti finanziamenti; se le leggi non intralciano (come spesso avviene in Italia).

Più di 25 anni di attività hanno reso ben  500, ospitalità per artisti.

Tra i tanti: Maurizio Cattelan, Martin Creed, Wael Shawky, Ala Younis e Tacita Dean.

-Entrecanales ha  ricevuto riconoscimenti importanti come il CBE (Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) nel 2012 e il Business Awards dal Principe Carlo nel 2013.

-Con il nuovo spazio, la Delfina Foundation amplia  il suo programma di attività con la mostra The Politics of Food, da qui nasce un momento di ricerca basato sulle politiche, economie ed etiche legate al cibo attraverso i lavori di ventidue artisti.

-Il tutto sarà ulteriormente ampliato con progetti e persone provenienti da tutto il mondo.

Dal Manifesto della Cucina Futurista di Marinetti, al ristorante concettuale di Gordon Matta-Clark  gli artisti hanno usato anche il cibo per le loro opere.

Tra i partecipanti:

-Abbas Akhavan, con una fontana fatta di piatti, pentole e padelle per esplorare l’ospitalità; Zineb Sedira, con fotografie in grande scala e sculture di zucchero per raccontare del razzismo, delle migrazioni e della globalizzazione; Tadasu Takamine, riflette sulle conseguenze del nucleare a Fukushima; Asunción Molinos, presenta un’opera che nasce dal progetto per un ristorante “pop-up” ; Senam Okudzeto con Portes-Oranges, sculture in metallo utilizzate dai fruttivendoli ghaniani per esporre la frutta.

Il programma include eventi come conferenze-pranzo e cene di discussione, performance sul tema della cucina e del cibo, proiezioni di film e food fights (“combattimenti di cibo”), gare di cucina alla presenza di artisti con successivi dibattiti.

Un indirizzo che, se andate a Londra e amate l’arte, dovete segnarvi in agenda.
