Yet, it neither aims to be a mere illustration or adaptation of this philosophical enquiry, nor does it wish to be developed into an exhibition about the history of childhood. Rather, it takes on the challenge to follow some of the working methodologies indicated by Agamben, and translate those to the realm of aesthetics and visual arts, where the two poles \u2013 infancy and history \u2013 become intertwined reference terms that circumscribe the field of our research and provide the ground for a possible experimental critical approach. \n\nThe gaze towards infancy becomes in this case a powerful tool and method of analysis, allowing deconstructions of dominant narratives, official historiographies and dichotomies, such as those between the rational and irrational, universal and individual (particular), natural and cultural.\n\nThe curatorial team attempts to create a field of visibility and legibility of those \u201cdiscourses of things\u201d and gestures, which can allow us to reread and reinterpret history from a different angle. Each of the materials gathered in this exhibition provides a historical witness of its own cultural background, and the emergence and gradual mutation of the perception and understanding of the notion \u201cchildhood\u201d in different geographical and historical contexts.","space":"-kind of theatre or playground\n-good for screening\n-also for documents\n-min 10x10 m","artists_proposal":"Yuanyuan Yang - Chinese -http:\/\/www.lukayangworks.com\nPetrit Halilaj - Kosovo -http:\/\/chertluedde.com\/artist\/petrit-halilaj\/\nErick Beltran - Mexico- https:\/\/www.galeriajoanprats.com\/erick-beltran\/\nJia Chun - Chinese \nMarko Tadic -Croatian\nLiu Ding - Chinese\nFabrizio Milani -Italian\n\nTBC","members":[{"names":"Andris","surname":"Brinkmains","email":"yssh025@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"LV4747241","address":"Via Carlo Darwin 20, Nuova Accademia delle Belle Arti","city":"Milan","nacionality":"Latvian","country_id":"113","birthdate":"1978-06-27T22:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1978-06-27T22:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+39 3667258579","web":null},{"names":"Paolo","surname":"Caffoni","email":"yssh025@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"YB2816161","address":"Via Carlo Darwin 20, Nuova Accademia delle Belle Arti","city":"Milan","nacionality":"Italian","country_id":"113","birthdate":"1984-01-01T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1984-01-01T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+39 3667258579","web":null}],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Shuai","surname":"Yin","email":"yssh025@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"EE9565598","address":"Via Carlo Darwin 20, Nuova Accademia delle Belle Arti","city":"Milan","nacionality":"Chinese","country_id":"113","birthdate":"1991-05-04T22:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1991-05-04T22:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+39 3667258579","web":null}
