Marinella Senatore

Blind people marching to the beat, illiterate people com- posing music, retirees, skaters, choirs, activists: they all are guests of Marinella Senatore. In her collaborative works, the Italian artist combines strategies of politi- cal protest movements with artistic forms of expression. Different media such as performance, sculpture, textile, photo, collage, drawing and video become a language of their own, a means of negotiating questions of eman- cipation. This catalogue accompanies the artist's larg- est exhibition to date at the Museum VILLA STUCK and the Generali Foundation Collection at the Museum der Moderne Salzburg: international authors discuss ques- tions about the tension between the individual and the collective, longings and belonging, sociopolitical exclu- sion and alternative forms of society, as well as the trans- formative potential of art.
