Sara Angelucci - provenance unknown

Ausstellungskatalog

Zusammenfassung: "Provenance Unknown" brings together two new bodies of work by Toronto artist Sara Angelucci, "The Anonymous Chorus" and "Aviary," both inspired by found, anonymous (unattributed) photographic portraits that the artist purchased on eBay. These works represent a distinct shift in the artist's practice. Here, Angelucci moves away from exploring the familiar to interrogating the anonymous; from investigating her own identity (and family lineage) to tracing the history of others. Throughout her eccentric inquiry into the "live-ness" of the photographic portrait, she performs as well the role of amateur historian, only to very different ends. In these works, she mixes analogue sources and digital techniques and combines artistic genres through collaboration with composers, singers, and ornithologists. "The Anonymous Chorus" and "Aviary" open a temporally suspended space between past and present, where the subjects of these lost portraits may come to life, once again--in a transformed state of being."--(Provided.)
