Palazzo Grassi—Pinault Collection, Venezia launches its fall public programme featuring names such as Bintou Dembélé, Jason Moran and Éliane Radigue and dedicated to the current exhibitions Julie Mehretu: Ensemble at Palazzo Grassi and “Pierre Huyghe: Liminal at Punta della Dogana in Venice.

On Friday, September 27 and Saturday, September 28, Palazzo Grassi presents En mode marron, the new performance by choreographer and artist Bintou Dembélé who, after a long period in which she devoted herself exclusively to choreography and curating, will be returning to dancing with an original in-situ performance, specifically conceived for the museum’s space, in dialogue with the exhibition Ensemble of the Ethiopian American artist Julie Mehretu.
Since 2010, Bintou Dembélé has developed her artistic research around the philosophy and the dance of Maroons, after having received the blessing of the Bushnengue community in French Guiana. Through dance, music and her voice, which she brings together in a circular and helical sequence, Bintou Dembélé celebrates the heroic figure of the migrant and the enslaved, escape as a means of survival and refuge as a space for the creation and reinvention of new societies.

This fall’s public programme also includes, on Thursday, October 24, a concert by the prominent jazz pianist and composer Jason Moran, who will deliver a solo piano improvisation to the public of Palazzo Grassi, drawing his inspiration from the works of Julie Mehretu. In 2017, Moran and Mehretu shared a workspace inside a former church in Harlem, New York, where the jazz musician created a musical suite conceived as an investigation into sound abstraction, which seeks to make the piano something more than just a musical instrument.

On Tuesday, November 19, at Punta della Dogana, a live listening session of Éliane Radigue’s work Kyema (1988, 61:07 minutes) will offer an immersive experience to the public inside the Cube, the iconic room that hosts Pierre Huyghe’s new work Camata. Kyema, the first part of Trilogie de la Mort by electronic music pioneer and composer Éliane Radigue, is widely considered one of her masterpieces and refers to the intermediate state of consciousness (Birth, Dream, Contemplation—Meditation, Death, Bright light, Crossing and Return).

On Wednesday, November 20, the Teatrino di Palazzo Grassi will host a public talk with Pierre Huyghe in conversation with Anne Stenne, curator of the artist’s solo exhibition on view at Punta della Dogana, among other guests. The conversation will explore the themes of metaphysical aspects of imagination, concrete fictions and formation of subjectivities.

The public programme also features screenings of works by Tacita Dean, a selection of films from The International Festival of Films on Art (FIFA), screenings dedicated to exploring the experiences and feelings of foreigners everywhere, including films by Tim Burton, Charlie Chaplin, Sofia Coppola, David Lynch, Agnès Varda, as well as workshops and listening sessions.
