The Kunstverein am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz is pleased to invite you to the opening ofMarco Siciliano: circa, the first institutional solo presentation of the Italian artist in Germany.
Conceived as an off-program intervention between two exhibitions, circaunfolds during a moment of institutional suspension. The project occupies a space that remains physically untouched, unlit, and formally undecided. Rather than offering answers, the intervention addresses the public through questions, activating perception and bodily awareness.
Taking the threshold as both subject and condition, Siciliano’s ephemeral, site-specific installations explore states of uncertainty in which time loosens its grip and architecture becomes temporarily soft. In this interstitial moment, neither exhibition nor void, the Kunstverein appears less as a container of meaning than as a site of latency. Light functions as the exhibition’s guiding thread, articulating moments of appearance and disappearance. Introduced by watermarked pages referencing texts by Ocean Vuong, Ettore Sottsass, and Paul B. Preciado, the works reflect on transition, and the emergence of meaning within suspended states - as something held: circa.
Curated by Susanne Prinz and Chiara Valci Mazzara.
