Gespräche Über Persönliche Themen

Raffaella Cortese is proud to present a double solo show by Miroslaw Balka and Roni Horn, which will occupy simultaneously the gallery spaces in Via Stradella 1 and Via Stradella 7. This is a new chapter in the series of two-solo artist shows that the gallery has begun to experiment with last season, showing Daria Martin with Anna Halprin and Michael Fliri with Asta Gröting.

The German title for the show is a hard translator’s game. The idea is that of a “dialogue between privately situated topics”. This evokes the themes of identity and of memory which both artists have consistently investigated in giving birth each to a hard-hitting, essential body of work, able, at once, to generate intense and penetrating poetry.
