This Orientation

This Orientation Summit Gallery, London 1 - 17 February 2013 Associate curator, Carmen Billows. A site-specific installation combining video, photography, painting and collage formed and arranged in direct response to the gallery space and its unique location high above the streets of Hackney Wick. Iacono developed the installation during a residency in the gallery in the two-weeks preceding the show and continued working in the space while the gallery was open to the public. Steven Ball (video artist and Research Fellow at The British Artists Film & Video Study Collection) was invited to engage the artist in a public discussion on the project during the course of the exhibition. This was undertaken through an online exhange of video, text and images at http://thisorientation.blogspot.co.uk and continued as a public event in the gallery space and as a live webstream on Sunday 17th February. www.riccardoiacono.co.uk/projects/thisorientation
