Shadows Must Dance is an exhibition project conceived specifically for Ca’ Pesaro by Bernardi Roig, one of the most important exponents of the current Spanish art scene. From June 5th to November 8th.

Fifteen of his works – mainly sculptures, but also installations, drawings and videos – made in the last fifteen years are related to the museum’s spaces and masterpieces, creating an active dialogue between images of the past and the present that generates a weave of new meanings and a new emotional dynamic. The sense of the exhibition is making shadows dance again.

The exhibition is a co-production of the Fondazione Musei Civici of Venice and the IVAM- Institut Valencià d'Art Modern - with the support of the Galleria Cardi of Milan, and curated by Consuelo Ciscar and Silvio Fuso, with Maurizio Caldirola and Daniele Sorrentino.

It is being presented in conjunction with the 53rd Venice Biennale and will move to Valencia in November. The IVAM catalogue contains rich, on-site photographic documentation and essays by Consuelo Ciscar, Silvio Fuso, Fernando Castro, Guy Gilsoul, Demetrio Paparoni, Daniele Sorrentino and George Stolsz.

Opening act: Friday June 5th with video, music, drink e finger food
