Pinksummer Contemporary Art www.pinksummer.com Pinksummer represents the following artists: Alis / Filliol, The Icelandic Love Corporation, M. Castillo Deball, P. Dejanoff, M. Dion, S. Vitone.

Pinksummer is active in Genova since 2000, presenting the work of international and Italian artists through gallery exhibition projects but also organizing a variety of site specific events, involving different public and private institutions, aiming for contributing to the development of the local cultural environment. Galegati, Gruppo A12, K. Jeong-A, G. Ben- Ner, Jorge Peris, T. Putrih, J. Queiroz, T. Saraceno, B. Sarcevic, S. Silva, G. Starr, C. Viel, L. Outside the gallery, pinksummer made happen among the others, Vanessa Beecroft!s performance VB 48, held at Palazzo Ducale (Genova) in 2001 on the occasion of G8 meeting and Pink Rabbit made up in Artesina (CN) by Gelitin in 2004. Together with the local Municipality, a sound performance by Carsten Nicolai and a lecture programme (Ceal Floyer, Georgina Starr, Carsten Nicolai) were organized in Genova. For the 53th Venice Biennale, the gallery produced together with Ivonne Lambert (Paris), the work presented there by Koo Jeong-A and supported the realization of Tomas Saraceno!s installation by finding two Italian sponsors. Pinksummer exhibitions invitation cards are artist projects themselves. Artists are asked to choose for the card an image, from history of art or from any other source, that in their opinion best represents the work they present at pinksummer. Pinksummer produces editions, conceived exclusively for the gallery in the same format and limited number, that are available at starting price of 50,00 Euro. Recently, pinksummer promoted a petition to let the political local institution open a call for a professional curator in charge for the programme of the civic contemporary art Museum, that has always been directed by a public employee not specifically knowledgeable about contemporary art.

Opening: October 8, 8:30 PM
Sala Morone, Convento di San Bernardino
Piazza S. Francesco d'Assisi 4, Verona

"I think what interests me now is precisely that violence is not exceptional. Of course there is
spectacular violence—war, murder, massacre—but there is also this much quieter violence that is
constantly around us and that we hardly recognize anymore. It is institutional, economic, political,
psychological. It becomes part of how society functions."

Pinksummer is pleased to announce the presentation of Cesare Viel’s book on 10 September 2026, h7 pm, Pinksummer.

Si può tremare per una frase (One Can Tremble at a Phrase) is a book edited by the artist himself, bringing together the performance texts of Cesare Viel, written over more than thirty years of artistic practice. Thirty texts, selected and arranged chronologically, conceived to be performed by the artist, either alone or together with other performers, through a range of different approaches: lecture performances, video, audio interventions, environmental installations, and relational devices.
An opportunity to explore the role of writing in Viel’s practice: a fundamental aspect of his work, whose full complexity has not always been fully grasped. The writings collected here can also be read in their pure textual dimension: as fragmentary narratives, stories, dialogues, and monologues. Between expressiveness, subjectivity, and thought in action.
The hybrid identity of these texts—and, more broadly, of the conceptual dimension of Viel’s entire oeuvre—is evident from the outset of his artistic research in the late 1980s. Around recurring themes: the word, the voice, the body, gender identity, the relationship with space, the social context, and personal and collective memory.
An archive of living traces that are activated on the page as well as in the mind of the reader. Attention and dispersal, strength and fragility, presence and latency are among the currents running through this magmatic, embodied, undisciplined methodology, which is at the same time consistently coherent and rigorous.

Pinksummer is pleased to announce the participation of Invernomuto in the Biennale de Lyon (19.09.26 - 13.12.26) with "Paraflu”, co-directed with Michela de Mattei.

"Paraflu" traverses the mountain landscapes of Northern Italy to follow the return of the wolf. It examines this predator as an archetypal symbol of conflict, marvel, and transformation, while also questioning the complexities of coexistence between humans and wildlife. Suspended between investigative narrative and abstract representation, the film shifts across multiple perspectives: the wolf, the shepherd, the hunter, the magician, and the spectator. Set in a territory where collective fears and cultural dynamics clash with those of nature, the film’s title harks back to a real event: an act of revenge against a pack of wolves, poisoned with Paraflu, a common antifreeze. Shot on 16mm film, "Paraflu" combines real footage with AI-generated scenes and voiceovers trained on the voices of Italian illusionist Mago Silvan and ecofeminist Val Plumwood. Deliberately misleading, the work invites spectators to confront their own role.

"By definition, white light contains the whole spectrum of frequencies in it—so more of less, all colors. The definition of white noise has been also created in relation to this—because with white noise, too, you basically have all the frequencies inside. And if you look at it, it is also a very beautiful metaphor—how a white light, which we tend to consider the purest and simplest form, is actually a maximum you can filter any color out of, because that color is already inside of it. And the same goes for white noise: any kind of music piece, any kind of noise, or sound, is already inside of it. White is like a huge piece of marble: you can create any kind of sculpture with it—and the same goes for the matter surrounding us. So, even though white always feels so pure and empty to us, it is actually the complete opposite. White is the absolute maximum."
