I mentioned that “Structurally recyclable, basically disposable” has been to Geneva for what it will probably be its last show.
Here are a couple of photographs showing the exhibition and the venue.

This is the wall outside of the university, in case the photograph is not clear enough.

Uni Mail, université de Genève

Even though it wasn’t quite a piece of cake to get this exhibition up, I eventually prevailed and this is how the panels (grilles) were put together to channel people through the two installations.

UniMail6

UniMail2

UniMail3

Since the exhibition did not go on for a long time, I spent the entire week in Geneva and one of my favorite spots was the first floor, which allowed me to work, read and keep an eye on the exhibition all at the same time.

UniMail4

UniMail5

So the project is now officially over and I plan on writing a longer summary of my impressions in the following days.
By the way, you can now access all the exhibitions’ archives from one page.

The photos from Geneva are still in their undeveloped film form and the films are still in my bag. I intend to bring them to the lab today, if my current dizziness allows it.
Besides, here are some photographs of Naples, from June, when I went back there to get back my exhibition.

I’ll spare you the]]> As you have probably noticed from the change in the graphic on the side bar –> and the poster on the general project page, next up for the traveling exhibition is the city of Geneva.
I’ll spare you the “going back to the roots” inner dialogue, as I have studied and worked in Geneva, and I’ll go directly to the practical information about the exhibition.

I will personally be there during the seven days of the show, from the 12th to the 19th in the hall of the University of Geneva, Uni-Mail building.
The building is closed on Sundays, it’s open Mondays to Fridays from 7h30 to 23h00 and from 7h30 to 17h30 on Saturdays.
The vernissage will be held on Saturday the 12th, from 16h00 to 18h00. The fixed hours are due to the special nature of the building: being a university, we only have limited margin of maneuver.
Also, please note that the on the last day, Saturday the 19th, the exhibition will only be visible until 10 am as I have to catch a train in the early afternoon.

Notwithstanding the technicalities, I am very excited to bring the photographs to Geneva, to hear and see some feedback and most of all, to meet the visitors. Drinks and snacks will be available the night of the vernissage, so don’t miss the opportunity.

While the exhibition is Naples carries on, I am working for the next one, which will be held in Geneva from the 12th to the 19th of June. In the meantime, however, other videos of the vernissage are surfacing and, piece by piece, I am posting them on here.
This one is from the last five minutes of the vernissage (audio in Italian – subtitles/translation coming soon):

The journalist who shot the videos, Francesca Ferrara, also wrote an article on the project: “Internet, Politica, Informazione, Giornalismo e Precariato #6 – “Structurally recyclable, basically disposable – Il lavoro in Europa ai tempi dello stage, la mostra di Elisabetta Lombardo che racconta il precariato”

The exhibition, as you know, is currently in Naples and the great thing about this is the way in which the space has been organized. “Structurally recyclable, basically disposable” is a special exhibition in that it is a traveling one and being composed of two installations, it is not always easy to adapt the space to the work that is being shown.
What we have achieved in the bookstore Archeologiattiva is very special, I think.
Basically, the pictures hang from the ceiling, which adds a 3D-like quality to the entire show. As you walk inside the bookstore under the first installation, the cut portraits hang above you.

General view

On the left side hangs the second part of the exhibition, the one with the full portraits and the texts.

Installation 2

All in all, this has been a great experience on how to use the space for the exhibition.
Once again, thank you all for coming, for the great debate the night of the vernissage, and for your response, which leads me to think that even though this project has been a long and solitary work, it has been worth it.
I remind you, the exhibition is in Naples until the 31st of May.

It’s been a long and full week here in Italy. I am currently writing from a beautiful library downtown Turin to give you some updates on the exhibition that is to see in Naples until the 31st in the bookstore Archeologiattiva, and on the vernissage that was held on the 10th of May.

The vernissage has been a great event, especially due to the presence of Raffaella R. Ferré, who read from her latest work, a short story published in the collection “Qui si chiama fatica” and of two representatives of the group “Coordinamento giornalisti precari Campania” who talked about their work, namely Ciro Pellegrino and Guiseppe Manzo. By the way, if you are in Naples you HAVE to go to their next meeting, which will be held this Friday in the Ubik bookstore downtown Naples. They will present the latest result of a long research about those shameful “short” and expensive courses that will make you into a journalist in a flash.

Anyway, within the already great media coverage, here is a small preview of the vernissage, specifically the intervention of the aforementioned group.

More videos will come soon.

Also, here is the interview I gave to Radio Popolare on the 11th of May, for those who could not tune in at the time (the interview starts at 3:01 of the recording).

Last Friday, as you know, was the day of the opening of the exhibition in Hamburg. Thanks to CampusGrün, who invited me to show my work at the university and to their members who helped out a lot with the installation, I am now proudly showing off the result of a hard day’s work.

As usual, the exhibition is composed of a two-parts installation. The first part, that you see below, is directly placed at the entrance of the building and we realized quickly that it had been a good decision because a lot of people showed their interest right away.

Part 1

Part 1 view

Mounting this time was a little bit of a challenge, but we made it.

Close up 2

Close up

The second part is mounted in the main hall just around the corner, where students normally sit down to study, discuss or drink a coffee.

It's a big hall

Posters

Passerby

The vernissage was held that same day. I don’t have the photos of the people who came because we ended up sitting around a table and talking about the project etcetera.

Part 2 of the exhibition

They made it possible

My apologies, this photo took itself.

I could not resist, this photo had to be taken

Don’t forget that the exhibition is open until the 30th! More information here.
