Loop Recorder

Claudio Citterio’s work “focuses on two experiences of consciousness: one of the work as potential next action and one of history as unbroken line of the idea through the artworks”. It is from these two “generating but non-overlap-ping instances” that Claudio Citterio develops his action in the art. His work focuses on the disorientation of a comprehensive/perceptive path, able to activate an unexpected syllogistic concatenation between artwork, its perception and the observer as an active presence.

Loop Recorder brings the public into a particular atmo-sphere in which the concept of light plays an essential role.
A loop recorder is an electronic device used in medical field to scan, reproduce and check cardiac rhythm in a stable and continously way, revealing arrhyth-mias and significant variations of heart over the created sequence and put it in loop. The exhibition creates a dimension in which the public is directly involved, through four works strictly linked one to the other (Loop, Chronography, Mirror, Transparent/Equinox). A visual cycle, which makes the observer’s presence a kind of rhythmic pattern overlying and revealing/revealed by the same exhibition.
