Sister Sara’s Theme

Los Angeles

Sister Sara’s Theme is conceived as a soundtrack. Curators Gigiotto del Vecchio & Stefania Palumbo borrow the title from Ennio Morricone’s score for a feature film and present the exhibition as a homage to both Morricone and to the powerful entanglement of scripted drama and scripted music.

Morricone makes music for images, which gives del Vecchio & Palumbo the possibility to imagine a show as a soundtrack of a movie that is told through the works, an impossible movie, a conceptual vision. To tell stories is like inventing new worlds, creating different images, fantastic scenarios, putting every single piece together thanks to a unique frame: an amazing soundtrack that is there, in your mind and you only have to give it a material body.

Participating artists include: Nina Beier, Peter Saville and Anna Blessmann, Michael Dean, Cyprien Gaillard, Eric Wesley, Douglas Gordon, , William E. Jones, Jonathan Monk, Anna Ostoya, J. Parker Valentine, Cerith Wyn Evans, Bernadette Corporation with Benjamin Huseby and Jonathan Zawada.
