Post Scriptum. A museum forgotten by heart (Lukas Wassmann)
Post Scriptum. A museum forgotten by heart (4 October 2024 – 16 February 2025) is the exhibition at MACRO – Museo d’Arte Contemporanea di Roma to conclude the five years of programming of the project Museum for Preventive Imagination curated by Luca Lo Pinto.
The group show spreads throughout the museum’s architectural spaces, with works by 37 artists giving rise to an open finale, stimulating new reflections on the museum as a living entity in a state of becoming.
The works on view, including some created for the occasion, are by Tolia Astakhishvili (with Thea Djordjadze, Heike Gallmeier, Dylan Peirce), Absalon, Vincenzo Agnetti, Maurizio Altieri, Alex Bag, Beatrice Bonino, Victor Cavallo, Francesca Cefis, Alassan Diawara, Buck Ellison, Luciano Fabro, Hamishi Farah, Simone Forti, Pippa Garner, Alberto Garutti, Isa Genzken, Lenard Giller, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Adam Gordon, Pierre Guyotat, Sohrab Hura, Thomas Hutton, Allan Kaprow, KUKII (aka Lafawndah), Rosemary Mayer, Sandra Mujinga, Charlemagne Palestine, Paolo Pallucco & Mireille Rivier, Lorenzo Silvestri, Diane Simpson, Lukas Wassmann, Gillian Wearing, Issy Wood.
The documentation of the exhibition avoids the conventions and structure of a traditional catalogue, instead taking the form of a hybrid editorial object composed of images only. Art director and stylist Francesca Cefis has been invited to implement a project based on the editorial language of fashion, utilizing the exhibition and the museum as a starting point. The result is two catalogues, from the perspective of two different authors, photographers Alassan Diawara and Lukas Wassmann, produced in collaboration with Adidas Originals and Emporio Armani.
